First off if you read the one or two bad reviews on Google or on Facebook I want you to remember that Mr. Kevin is a Marine..... he is too the point and can off brash but it it for your benefit to keep you on track and means nothing but empathy and respect. Ignore those reviews because they are amazing! Ok down to business, I can not thank Mr. Kevin enough for the ease that he helped us with the the passing of our bud Spud. Spud passed on the weekend during a terrible storm that hit Carteret county. Mr. Kevin offered to drive to our farm ( Millcreek) to pick up my baby. I was worried about safety so we all agreed to meet first thing that next morning morning at Sacred paws. We drove down to the small private office and cemetery on the property and I was stuck by the fact that it was just as our fatm. ( County, rural out of the way and quite just as Spud knew in life) The office was clean and amazingly organized with plenty to choose from from urns besides the ones that he provides for free. Being a Marine family and totally organized ourselves ( I have Ocd) I had already shown my husband the urns on website and he choose the one he wanted. The process was seamless from that point on and he could read the difficulty I was having ( Spud was almost 16 and our original baby) . He made sure a nice soft bed was on the cart with a pretty afghan to cover. He gave me so much time to say goodbye and also allowed us to have Spuds favorite blanket and his Sheep ( Lambikins) cremated alongside him. ( Two other place had said no so screw them.) Mr. Kevin talked to us for a bit and made sure we knew the expected turnaround time ( 1 to 2 days at most such we got there first thing) . Next day he called and my baby was ready! At pickup he made sure to talk to us some more and that we were totally happy with everything. His urn is beautiful and perfect and the sweet touches of many extra paw prints and the letter meant so much to us at this time. That being said we are a Marine family and over the last 20 years we have had 5 of our beloved babies cremated into two other states.......Sacred paws is the first time I did not feel as if we were just a paycheck for the service. If you go expecting a funeral home, sorry you willl be disappointed. However if you want that personal touch of a family that honestly cares, these are the most understanding people to deal with. We are now in NC permanently and will continue to use them until we ourselves leave this world. Marines understand Marines and the way we deal with loss. To have someone else understand you makes ghe world of difference. Thank you Mr. Kevin for everything again. Spuds family The Olson/ Bells read more

Good experience. Drove over an hour to go here because of reviews, and really happy we did.

Very peaceful location. Dedicated professional, caring and loving. Knowing the Rosie will always be in good hands.

I spoke with Kevin and he took such good care of my pet rat, Otis. Otis was my baby boy and I loved him so so much. He had been by my side through so many things. He was about 2 years old when he passed. It was unexpected because he was so healthy and full of life. After some investigation we found he got into something he shouldn't have. I'm still completely heartbroken it ended that way. I want to say a HUGE thank you to Kevin for being so kind with my boy. He was preserved in a beautiful little urn and I was given prints of his tail and his feet. I live an hour away and I would make that trip again and again just to have the great service I got. I felt so comfortable and cared about. I totally recommend Sacred Paws thank you so much. read more

We've used the services of Sacred Paws five times over the past few years. I don't look forward to it but when the next time comes, we will definitely use them again. Kevin shows empathy and compassion for those who bring their beloved fur babies in and provides very prompt service for reasonable prices. We dropped our dog off Sunday and he had her ready to be returned to us the next day. Along with the urn of ashes, he always includes a personal note of sympathy and your pet's paw prints on several pieces of paper. Thank you, Kevin and Sacred Paws for what you do. read more

Kevin has always taken amazing care of my boys, which just so happen to be rats. He's taken care of 11 of them so far, and has always treated them the same as he would any beloved pet. For that I'm beyond thankful. My boys are my whole world. I've experienced loss after loss in the past year, but he's helped make things a little easier. read more

My dog, Spirit, left us due to cancer. It was so hard knowing he was gone. Sacred Paws picked him up that afternoon and had him ready to go home with us by the next day. The owner was very compassionate and caring. Treated our boy with respect and helped us pick an urn and place his remains inside. We received a letter, a note and various paw prints of his. They were wonderful and made this process as easy as it could be. read more
