Current Rainbow Bridge

Welcome to Cherished Friends

"Here When You Need Us Most."

We will be closed July 10th to July 15th

We wholeheartedly believe that pets are members of the family. Grieving their loss is no different from grieving the loss of our human friends and family. Understanding this, we treat each and every pet in our care with the highest level of compassion, dignity and respect that we offer to all of our families. We know that pet parents want what is best for their pets and we are here to guide you through this difficult process. We are always available to answer any questions or concerns that you may have. The grieving process is unique to each and every one of us and we are happy to handle many special requests. Although, we cannot make things better, we will strive to do our best to make them easier.

Many families feel the loss of a pet the same way they would feel the loss of a human family member, and sometimes more. Because our pet’s love is unconditional and they are an important part of your family. Now you have the option of having a company owned by a licensed funeral director and staff to handle your pet individually, in a dignified and caring manner and provide you, the grieving pet parent, with the same treatment that you would have at our funeral home for any family member.


As always, your pet will be treated with love, respect and care while in our possession. 


We will NEVER turn away a pet for cremation. We accept ALL pets regardless of their cause of death, for example, Parvo or Distemper as well as previously buried pets. Please let us know as we do have pets of our own and need to be cautious.



HOURS OF OPERATION



Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 9:00-4:00 Closed Major Holidays

Please give a courtesy call before bringing your pet to us as we are also a funeral home



The Rainbow Bridge Poem

"Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.


All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.


They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.


You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.


Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
