Pet Cremation and Aftercare

Paws at Peace has partnered with the highest-rated pet crematory in New York State, Compassionate Care Aquamation. Aquamation, or water cremation, is an environmentally-friendly alternative to flame cremation that uses water rather than fire to create the ashes. With aquamation, no fossil fuels are burned and no greenhouse gasses are released.

With Compassionate Care, you can rest assured that your pet will be treated with dignity and respect at every stage of the process. Your pet will arrive safely at the Compassionate Care facility in Oceanside, NY the same day as your appointment, so your beloved pet will never be in storage.

Private cremation/aquamation

When you choose private cremation/aquamation, your pet is cremated in a private chamber without any other pets. You can choose from one of a variety of beautiful urns included in the price, and your pet’s name will be elegantly engraved on a brass plate. We also offer cremation jewelry that can hold a small bit of your pet’s cremains so you can always carry a part of your beloved friend near your heart. You have the option of picking up your pet’s cremains from Compassionate Care (in Oceanside, NY right outside of Queens) or having them shipped directly to you. In most cases, your pet is safely back to you in under a week.

Communal cremation

With communal cremation, your pet will be respectfully cremated with other pets and their ashes will be scattered on a beautiful farm in upstate New York.
