My sweet boy had passed on the 17th and I was honestly dreading not having him with me. But within 24 hours he had been returned in such a lovely urn with a clay paw print. Thank you for your compassion towards my sweet boy.

After I had to put my beloved cat Smitten to sleep, I had hours later had second thoughts about having her cremated. However, she had already been picked up by Faithful Companion and was on her way to Indiana from western Illinois. Kayla was ever so helpful, and arranged to have Smitten respectfully returned by noon the next day. Seeing the vet carry the box that held her to me practically brought tears to my eyes; Such compassionate service; ... Read More

After 15 years of beautiful life, my baby passed away peacefully. I am from Lexington and my vet had shipped him to Cincinnati, but i got him back in 4 days. They gave me beautiful arrangements that provided the closure I needed to let him rest in heaven peacefully. I certainly recommend this company to anyone going through grief.

I had to put my very best friend of nearly 16 years to sleep on Friday 10/25/2024. Bubba was truly a companion of my heart and is terribly missed. Both the vet, Heritage in Genesee County, and Faithful Companion of Troy, MI handled things beautifully and respectfully. I was able to pick up my boy’s remains on Tuesday along with his paw print. Having him back in my arms was somewhat of a relief, made even more possible by the care that was clear... Read More

One of the most painful events in my life was losing my special girl, Dixie, to a horrible illness. A loving, gentle Pyrenees not even 9 years old. To be able to arrange such dignified and compassionate handling to honor her, and receive such kind, caring support, was absolutely phenomenal. I didn’t feel ok leaving her with the vet to handle cremation. I wanted her with me and to be involved in her aftercare. Words cannot express how comfor... Read More

We are beyond grateful to have our Jameson back home with us so quickly which helped ease our grief. From the phone call to delivery, we were treated with care and compassion. When he was delivered, it was in a lovely gift bag holding his box of ashes, ceramic paw print, and a small booklet about grief. It was truly comforting. We appreciate it so much! ❤️

On a very hard day and very unexpected one, Tom and Jeremy made the process very simple and made the day a little easier. The care they showed was amazing and as professional as you can get in this hard process. We miss Levi very much but appreciate how well Tom and Jeremy took care of us with the paw print and the ashes returned so quickly to us. Faithful Companions is a top notch company with outstanding workers that care very much about the pe... Read More

This place is great. They are very flexible with a quick turn around time. The thing I appreciated most was how compassionate the workers are and the lengths they are willing to go to respect you and your pets wishes. Definitely would recommend to anyone.

This is the second time I've experienced the care Faithful Companions gives. I was persisting for a friend of my mother's when I walked in one morning to find the dog dead. Her owner's vet recommended Faithful Companions to her, and she made the arrangements to have Snowy picked up later that day. I returned to meet the woman who came, and she showed me nothing but kindness and empathy. It made a hard situation much easier. So today, when I recei... Read More

I have worked at Faithful Companion for over 3 years now. Interacting with all of the families and loved ones has been an honor and a privilege. Being behind the scenes everyday and knowing the process inside and out meant for me there was no other choice when we just lost our sweet Sophia. I knew that the level of care and attention to detail would be nothing less than spectacular and our fur baby deserved nothing less. Actually being part of th... Read More

Amazing and very caring service!
From call in and speaking with Emily to discuss our appointment; to meeting with Steve to go over options and final return the next day, we are so appreciative of the support, attentiveness and excellent service we received for our beloved Cocoa Puff.
Thank you for the great service you provided for our beloved poodle.

I cannot say enough nice things about the people who give of themselves to work here. They treated my Lucy with such dignity and respect. I dropped her off today and will get her back with me tomorrow. They are going to make paw prints of plaster and even give me a lock of her hair. As pitiful as I was there, they hugged me and showed me such grace. Thank you so much for your care of me as well as my Lucy!!
