I had contacted the wonderful team at Gentle Pet Crossing ahead of time, and they kindly told us to call whenever the moment came. That moment arrived on a Saturday morning. They arranged for their vet, Rachel, to meet us within just over an hour. She was gentle, compassionate, respectful, and very professional. Little Mocha peacefully slipped from this life in our arms, in a beautiful and serene setting. We are so thankful we found Gentle Pet Crossing and highly recommend them to anyone facing this heartbreaking but sacred decision.

He made a very difficult and sad decision and time as comfortable and meaningful as possible. From the moment I first texted him in the evening, he explained everything to me with a immediate callback and a plan to come to my home the next evening at my request. He showed exactly when he said he would, and again with his very gentle, kind and compassionate manner. He explained each step and gave me time alone with my cat of 20 years. He was never in a hurry or impatient, but instead was very compassionate and respectful of my feelings. I am so happy I called him and I plan to tell all my friends that when it comes time with their fur-babies to make some difficult decisions - his kindness, compassion, respect and obvious caring for all animals as well as their caregivers, is the obvious way to go.

I picked him up 19 days later and when I saw the box I was so pleased it was really pretty and had his name engraved on the side. I also got a small portion on good ashes in a heart shaped vile.

I am giving 3 stars because of the professional guy that picked up my best friend from home. He really tried. She was 100 pounds and she had blood on her mouth. I was desperated and I called these people that charged me about $600 for pick her up and cremate her, put her paw print on ceramic and truth be told, the presentation was beautiful. I truly hope those are my babie's ashes. One can only hope. I called on Saturday to arrange for pick up and the same guy that always answer the phone told me he was the answering service. I called every day to monitor where my baby was. Always the same response. That my dog would be ready in 7-10 business days. Then I called because they do have "delivery" service, and they should bring the ashes complementary when they are around the area picking up other dogs. He told me that it would be $75. I thought that price was ridiculously high but I agreed. He told me to call the next day at 9:00 AM. At this point I want to leave one star. I called next day 9:00 AM, he said the guy that makes the deliveries was picking up two dogs so I had to call later. Called later, he said call me in the morning. Figure it up, my pain, crying, calling this moron every day and my dog? Where's my dog? This morning to add insult to the situation, the man, owner, answering service, cashier, mortician and scammer told me the service would be $175 because of the gas. I said "the gas?" And he said that the gas prices raised incredibly overnight. He really thought I am an idiot. Please don't do business with them. They don't care about our dogs. They only care about MONEY. Never ever again. Horrible.

We will be forever grateful to Gentle Pet Crossing for helping us say goodbye to our beloved Sky…read moreafter almost 15 beautiful years together. Saying goodbye to a member of your family is one of the hardest things imaginable, but they made such a heartbreaking moment feel peaceful, respectful, and full of love. From beginning to end, Sky was treated with incredible kindness, dignity, compassion, and respect. We never felt like this was simply a service or a procedure. They truly understood that Sky was our family, and they treated him with the love and care he deserved until his very last moment. Thank you for giving our boy such a peaceful and dignified farewell, and for treating our family with so much compassion during such a difficult time. We wholeheartedly recommend Gentle Pet Crossing. Thank you for taking such beautiful care of our Sky. We will always be grateful.

We were told we could pick up his remains with a pick up window of from 9am-10am which is an hour away from us. They blamed the incorrect name on penmanship and didn't take responsibility of verifying his name when it was on other forms that were filled out. Never once did I feel any compassion, warmth or understanding from this company. I will NOT be recommending this company to anyone. Update: We got an updated name plate with the correct name spelling 2 weeks after. Nice gesture but still doesn't change the experience. I appreciate the attempt though.

Stay away from this place. It is a money making business and nothing else matters. Your fur baby is…read morejust another corpse they can squeeze into their death selling business. You enter their lobby which looks like a fast-food pick up place with bodies packaged up and ready for pick up. Who came up with this idea? Someone who does not understand what the feeling of deep sorrow and grief means. My husband and I brought our fur baby personally to them and asked a number of times to return to us all her belongings ie the little coffin and the zipped cover which her body was wrapped in. We put her name on both to make sure they get returned to us. We were assured that everything will be returned and they would keep us informed throughout the process. Nobody kept us informed. Only after my husband called them, they informed us that she was being "processed"! For a week no other info. We called again "ah yes, you can pick her up". We came to pick her up and were faced with yet another disappointment - they just threw away the zip cover. The manager said she was sorry but they could not do anything. Nobody told them that we wanted the cover! Really!? I requested she reviews her security camera which would confirm how many times we repeated our wishes. The cover was gone but they offered a memorabilia instead. How awefully nice of you. The manager was trying in a typical materialistic, despicable way replace something priceless with cheap memorabilia they sell. At this point I don't even know if our fur baby is in the urn. Having seen the type of personnel they have in this place, them just throwing away the previous cover in spite of our explicit request to get it back and having spoken to the manager of this fast-food place with $$ signs in her eyes, I doubt the quality of the services they provide. You have ZERO guarantee that you get YOUR baby back. It is very sad that people make money off of death like this.

The bag it all came in was tied with a thin black ribbon with paw prints on it. Open the bag, and there was this beautiful simple wooden urn with my dog's paw print burned into the wood, with Tank's name above the paw. They gave me a certificate, plus a cast of his paw in a round cast, like you do for children's hands. Also a beautiful glass cylinder with some of Tank's fur. Also, a certificate of the private cremation, a bookmark and an another paw print in ink on a card. This whole package was very comforting to me.
