Companion Pet Services
At one time or another, many of us have been impacted by a special, "four-legged" family member. We share our personal existence with pets including traditional holidays, monumental events, and times of despair. A dog or cat can serve as a prime source of entertainment, enjoyment and, most of all, companionship. The impact that these creatures make on a family, and an individual, regardless of age, is immeasurable.
When a pet passes away, a void is certainly created, making the grieving process harder than could be first imagined. Once a part of everyday life, now he or she is gone, changing routines for family members and certainly making the house a little quieter, and more so, lonelier. The grieving process is understandable, but many folks are hit with the dilemma of what to do in respect to burial arrangements. Mount Olivet offers the opportunity to bury pets in family-owned lots, or in our Faithful Friends Pet Cemetery section located here within the larger, historic cemetery. Options exist for both full in-ground burial of the pet and pet cremains burial.

Pets can be buried on your pre-existing lot, or you can purchase a cemetery lot specifically for the purpose. Interment can take place within an optional burial casket and a required vault in a section that allows a marker to display names of both you and your pet. A pet's cremains can also be buried on a family plot. Depending on the size of urn, interment of more than one pet (cremains) may be buried on a single lot. In either case, lots are also available for purchase within the Faithful Friends Pet Cemetery.
