Testimonials

This was our first experience with Loyal Companions and how we wish this wonderful, caring and professional service would have been available for all of our pets over the years. Losing our dear little Toby just shy of 13th birthday was devastating for us to say the least, but Loyal Companions and Kristin were so helpful, kind and understanding. Our experiences in the past were sort of cold and final. But not here, there was warmth and understanding and dignity for Toby and us. We appreciate all of the things that Loyal Companions does that have been missing in prior years in this situation, such as the obituary and being able to post his picture, nose print, paw print and his fur for a keepsake. Being allowed to choose his Urn and the wonderful note and picture we received yesterday in the mail. What a wonderful service you provide! Thank you doesn't seem to express enough how grateful we are for what you do. But thank Kristin you from the bottom of our hearts!

It has taken me awhile to write this review because I'm still in disbelief over the untimely loss of my beloved companion but nonetheless here I go...

The level of compassion, patience and empathy these people have shown my family when we had to bring in my sweet angel Cliff was truly a beautiful experience. Ms. Kristen was very patient with us and let me stay around just a bit longer before doing the process. He'll always be with me thanks to her and the rest of this angels on Earth. You people are doing God's work in making this horrible traumatic experience more bearable. Bless you all......

After a year of numerous health problems, on Jan. 26, 2023, I knew I had to quit being selfish and let my beloved best friend go. It was the hardest decision that I've ever had to make. We'd been together almost 24/7 for 15 1/2 years.
I had found Loyal Companion online when Bandy first started having problems. After reading the testimonials, I knew that was where I was taking my precious boy when the time came.
I called them and made an appt. for that day. From the time we walked in, until I got his ashes back the next day, everyone was so very caring, kind, supportive and compassionate.
We met Kristin Hart whom asked us to tell her all about our boy. She listened and seemed genuinely interested in everything we told her. She wrote it all down and wrote a very nice tribute about him. When we went to leave, imagine my surprise, to see my beloved boy laid out with his favorite blanket tucked around him. So that we could say our final goodbyes to him. A private viewing. How nice!
When we picked up Bandy's ashes the next day, we met one of the owners Kristin Newman. She was very nice, too. And took the time to answer some questions that I had.
When I had difficulty uploading a lot of photos to Bandy's tribute wall, I called and talked to Sara, whom was kind enough to upload all of them for me.
A week after our loss, we received a beautiful card from Kristin Hart, and the Loyal Companion family. Among heartfelt words, she mentioned how much she enjoyed hearing about our memories of our precious baby and enclosed a forever picture of him.
These people are so very kind and they all make the traumatic experience of losing a beloved pet, a little bit easier. I highly recommend them! They're amazing! Thank you to everyone at Loyal Companion for everything that you did for us. You're the absolute best!!

i have never had to go through such a traumatic experience. Having to part with my MIAmor was so heartbreaking & difficult. She & I were together almost 24/7 for 15+ years. She was my sidekick & was loved by everyone & gave everyone so much love in return. Thank you so much Kristen for your love & compassion & for making this enormous loss of my precious Mia a bit more bearable. I highly recommend You & Loving Companion to all animal lovers having to face this difficult end of lifr decision. Thank you soo much!

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Kristin and LCPC for being there for not only myself, but my daughters family, in needing to say goodbye to our grandpuppy, Kane. Knowing that he’d be well taken care of eased the pain a bit during this difficult time! Kristin’s compassion and love shown through and her guidance was insurmountable. Thank you again!

My best friend crossed the rainbow bridge this morning and I want to thank Kristin for taking care of my sweet boy Duff. She was so compassionate and helpful with making his final arrangements . I can’t express how much it meant to have such a wonderful person guide me through such a terrible loss. She was so comforting and professional. I know my boy is being handled with the utmost respect and compassion. Such an amazing place. Thank you. ❤️

One of the hardest things we ever had to do was to make the decision to put our precious Muffin down on 1/9/2021. It didn’t matter what kind of a day you had you would always be greeted with a rush to door, a wagging tail and a lick to the face by this precious rescued dog, she lived for 15 glorious years and her poor little body just gave up. Until the last day she still tried to run to the door but just couldn’t do it anymore. We loved her so much that we had to let her go and we will be with her again, but we wanted to get her cremated so when we come home now we can be the first to greet her at her resting place, her beautiful urn. We didn’t want to leave Muffin with the vet where they said that someone comes once a week to cremate them, no, I may not get my Muffin back. I spoke with Kristen who comforted me as I sobbed while make the arrangements. She was very thorough, patient and kind. She assured us that Muffin would be cremated by herself. That was so comforting. I was able to pet Muffin, after she passed, on our beautiful drive over to Hanover. Kirsten met us there at the time we scheduled for Muffin to be cremated and she provided the service as we waited to get her ashes back. Kristen also added Muffins favorite toy in 2 urns. One for myself and 1 for my daughter. I know Muffin is in there so if you love your pet as much as we do, you should definitely use Loyal Companion for their final resting place. It’s the least we could do for our precious baby

It's taken me almost a month to write this review because I so miss my Jack and now I'm crying writing this of course. These people made the hardest, most painful moment of my life bearable. They are kind, professional and compassionate and fast. They came out and picked up my boy at night. His little ashes were ready the very next day. I came to early to pick him up and they sent someone out to meet me. I lost it completely when I got him in his little box I picked out. The lady let me sit and talk to her so I was more calm and able to drive. Complete angels on earth. I would never be able to do their job and I'm a nurse. I guess it's more of a calling for sure. Thank you. Thank you for everything.

Loosing our dear Conan was very difficult, as he was not only our best friend and companion, but, also loved by all our 6 grandchildren We lost him on Christmas Eve, but regardless of the day Loyal Companion and their staff were there to offer not only their services, but, their sincere and caring attitudes to make us feel at ease at such a painful time. We felt comfortable with Conan in their trusted hands. To you and your staff, we sincerely thank you

Putting our Maggie down was one of the hardest days of our lives. Kristen's showed compassion to us during this difficult time. We were able to get Maggie's ashes back the next morning. I would highly recommend Loyal Companion Pet Cremation. Thank you Kristen for your help during this difficult time.

Words cannot express how grateful I am to all at Loyal Companions for helping me through my intense grief over the passing of my girls Squeaky Cheese and Willow. I called them around 3:30 am not knowing what to do or what to expect only an hour after finding Squeaky had birthed into spirit 24 hours after her sister. I had never had a rat cremated let alone two at the same time. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to afford such measures or if it could even be done. I was so thankful the services they provided my girls were affordable (less than half the price offered by vets in the area). Kristen was so informative and kind over the phone. Her words and sympathies were very comforting to me. Upon arriving at my appointment with my beloved ratties I was greeted with kindness and support. The staff was calming, professional and patient through my tears. They actually wanted to know about my girls and the incredible lives they lived. We shared stories and I showed them photos of my angels. I never once felt rushed, it was as if my two little rats were people to them as they were treated just the same. When I went to pick up Squeaks and Willow today I was told how sweet the way I had layed them in their box was (tucked in and covered in flowers from my garden). It meant a lot to me that they noticed the effort I put into showing my girls how much they were and still are loved. I am so very grateful of all at Loyal Companions. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the respect and dignity you showed
me and my girls and the support you gave me during a very difficult time. I will forever be recommending your services to friends and family.

My Sophie passed away at home. Kristen was very kind and compassionate when they came to get Sophie. I can't thank them enough for their compassion during this very difficult time and for all the little things they did to make this a little easier.

I have been an emotional mess since my dear girl, Chloe, passed away at midnight in my arms a few nights ago. I contacted Loyal Companion and  took my girl to their crematorium and met Sara. Sara was very sweet, calm and so easy to relate to. Her professionalism, compassion and attention to detail was exemplary, and I knew I had taken Chloe to the right place. Little did I know Sara was taking in important details about the love of my life to put in their web site tribute of her. That was very touching! I met Kristin later for Chloe's private cremation and I could not have been treated more kindly and more emotionally supportive. Kristin knows this business well and how to help people who, like me, are in emotional upheaval go through the process of saying the final goodbye to a beloved pet. I was impressed with Panebaker's setting with two crematoriums, one for humans and a separate one for pets. The professionalism and dignity with which they conduct their business is in my opinion beyond reproach. Thank you Sara and Kristin!

Many thanks to Kristin for her kindness. Kristin was the ''perfect person'' for this job. Dr. Carolyn Cline recommended Loyal Companion. I had a 14 year old cocker spaniel by the name of Liberty Charles. Liberty Charles was ''my service dog''. I live alone with both my legs amputated and Liberty also knew when I was in a low blood sugar and would stay by my side. I never knew their was a place like this and only Kristin could run and be manager. THANKS-Carolyn

Would like to say : Thank You Loyal Companion for the services provided for Makita. Kristin,I appreciated all your help , losing her was very painful that day. Makita Marie Tailsworth as my daughter Courtney called her. Makita was a great companion, loyal, protective friend. She loved our Ice Cream break daily. I miss her , but know someday ...we will meet again...Thank You !

Dear Mrs. Hart and Cremation Center staff,

Your kind service took some of the sting out of losing our beloved pet, Nolan, and gave his life a dignified resolution.  My wife and I were delighted with the obit you wrote: you really listened when we told you about Nolan.  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your sympathy and appreciation for our pet.  We recommend Loyal Companion to anyone who has lost a beloved family pet.

It has been 10 months since Loyal Companion took care of my Ginger, at the time the put her to rest I was so upset I was unable to tell them how much I appreciated how much it meant to me the way they took care of my Ginger. Since she has been gone there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about her. Her Companion Luke is not doing well and he will soon be joining Ginger soon. Loyal Companion was a great help and comfort to me the way they handled Ginger as if they were her owner. I just want to thank everyone there and sorry it took me so long to response with a thank you.

Thank you for your professionalism and service.  When my husband and I left your facility Saturday evening, we felt like we had received grief counseling.  It was comforting to hear your personal stories along with others who have shared in our loss.  It has been a difficult few days for us and feels like an eternity adjusting to life without Sugar, but we are grateful for all of the personal mementos Loyal Companion has given us that we can treasure during out lifetime.  This is the second time we have had to use your services.  We are pleased to recommend you to others, knowing their pet and their feelings will be treated with dignity and respect as ours have been.  Thank you again.  The Arter Family"

Words cannot adequately describe the comfort, sympathy and compassion Kristin gave us yesterday afternoon. We lost our beloved Scooter after 12 wonderful healthy years,
quite quickly, and we were/are devastated. Not wanting to wait any length of time in order to “bring Scooter back home”, nor have the worry of not being able to have a private cremation, my husband searched online and found Loyal Companion. Kristin
was so comforting on the phone as she tried to accommodate our schedule, welcomed our entire family upon our arrival, and treated our Scooter with the utmost respect. Loyal
Companion gets our highest recommendation- we would have been lost without their tremendous service yesterday. A million thank you’s Kristin- we will be sure to recommend you to other dog owners in their time of need.

I wanted to thank you so much for your caring and kindness in one of the worse days of my life. When we lost our little Jasmine you assured us we would be getting our own fur baby back. She was only 7 years old and we were and still are devastated, your caring helped us in our time of heartbreak and tears.

Our neighbor had taken her cat to you a year ago and highly recommended your facility.  She spoke highly of the care and kindness she had experienced.
We had just come from the vet after putting our cat of 24 years Squeeky down. We were so sad, when we got to your facility, we were greeted with compassion and kindness.  We were so impressed by the care and detail when you laid our sweet pet out for us to say our goodbyes. You made our sad final journey with our pet Squeeky a
rewarding and wonderful way to say farewell.

Words cannot express how highly we recommend Loyal Companion's services and how thankful that we are for the amazing kindness that we received during such a painful time. Our hearts were absolutely broken when we lost our sweet senior girl, Toonces, suddenly in January 2019 and we were left with several decisions that we had to make. Our options were explained to us clearly, but with such care and compassion that it made the process just a little bit easier. About a week after her passing, we received the kindest handwritten card filled with sincere condolences and reassuring words that encouraged us to remember all of the goods times; I’m so thankful that her aftercare is a moment that I can think on fondly, knowing that she was cared for even up to the end. I have recommended this company to anyone I know with pets, because that’s how thankful I am for what they do and how kind and compassionate they were. Sincere thanks for taking care of our best girl, from the bottom of our hearts.

We highly recommend Loyal Companion Pet Cremation, Inc. and Memorial Center.  The professionalism shown to us by Sara after the passing of Angel, from the cremation services to the memorial services help, was great!  Sara realized this was difficult for Sherri Krepps Warner, Teresa Warner and myself, Dean J. Warner, as she met us at the door of 43 Amy Way in Hanover with a solemn greeting and helped us with our memorial needs.  Thank you Sara!

Thanks to Sara and everyone at Loyal Companion. Your help during this trying time was appreciated. I will definitely recommend your service to anyone who need this vital service you provide.  I am sure that our beloved Max is Resting In Peace.

Loyal Companion was there at our worst time.  I called from the ER moments after we lost our precious Tottie and from the moment you answered the phone to the very next day when I brought his urn back home you were caring, understanding and comforting. Thank you for making one of our worst days manageable. The service you provide is outstanding and exceptional. Knowing who was taking care of our baby was extremely comforting.  Kristin and Sarah are the best. I will sing your praises to all my animal loving friends.  Again, thank you.

Kristin, this is our 2nd time visiting your crematory. We appreciate your compassion and helping us through our difficult time. You are knowledgeable & sympathetic. You listened as we talked about Cinnamon & Oscar. I love the tribute page & you made us feel like we are family. I just wish we knew you when we had previous furry family members pass away. Thank you for all your help.

Sincerely,

Debby & Richard

Thank you for your professionalism and compassion as we suffered through the death of Loki. You truly helped ease the pain.

Thank you so much for your services. Our family has received your kindness too many time. So glad you are there for us & our friends. Roxie was a special companion for the last 10 years of her life & is missed so much already.

Your kind words and sympathy gave our Shelby the dignity she deserved.  We were so distraught and you helped.  Thank you for giving our puppy a special place.  My jewelry is my greatest treasure.

We want to express to you how extremely grateful we are for the care you provided to our sweet Daisy.  Her passing leaves a huge hole in our hearts and in our lives but the dignity with which she was cared for in the end has been such a blessing to us.  Thank you Kristin for the compassion you showed toward us and the respect you gave to our little sweetheart.  This is a wonderful service that you provide and we are so thankful we found you.  We have already shared our Loyal Companion experience with other pet owners and will continue to do so.  We can''t recommend you highly enough!  You enabled a terribly painful experience to have a bittersweet closure.  Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Losing our BoBo really hit us hard and was totally devastating. We called our Veterinarian after discovering he had passed and they recommended using your services. When we called you, you didn't miss a beat. I am very grateful for the great care you gave BoBo and us too !

I just wanted to thank everyone at Loyal Companion for the concern and care they showed for Rocco. We were so impressed with your services. Our pain from our loss was eased by the special care our faithful pet was given. God bless you all.

People, who do not share their daily lives with pets, may not realize how traumatic it is when that loyal and faithful companion is no longer there.  The loss and grief is real.  We saw a notice of services from Loyal Companion at the vet''s office.  Upon contacting them, it became obvious very quickly, they were the right choice to handle and care for our loyal companions - we had to say goodbye to our two Boston Terriers on the same day. Kristin's caring and compassion was greatly appreciated at this very difficult time.  Nancy and I could not have been more pleased with the courtesy and professionalism shown to us.  We thank you for your kindness and highly recommend your services.



Sincerely,

Glenn and Nancy Phillips

The care and services given were spectacular. The hard times of losing our beloved dog was eased from the attention and love shown for her and the whole family by everyone at Loyal Companions. Thank you so very much for the special touches and keepsakes. Having you all help us through has allowed us to feel more closure and completeness. So glad we left our Izzy in your hands and care!!

We just want to say Thank You for your services.

It made it a bit easier to know we could bring "Maggie" back home.

You have brought a wonderful business to this community. You have a very pleasant staff working for you. So kind and compassionate.

We want to thank you for everything you have done for Whiskers. You did a great job. She is crossing the rainbow bridge. She is with Snickers who Christy did in August 2012.

My dear friend, Colbie, passed at home on Sept. 8 due to lymphoma.  Loyal Companions came at the time arranged and couldn't have been kinder, more compassionate or caring in how they handled Colbie, referring to her by name and assuring us that she would be well cared for.  Thank you so much for providing this service and making a terrible situation a little more bearable.

Thank you all so much for helping with the lose of our 1st baby/pet. It was such a devastating time for our family and we felt so relieved that he was in good hands. June 25th, 2016 will always be a terrible day for our family for we had to say good-bye to our beloved Boomer. Only 3 years old, he was so active and loved to run and play with HIS ball, but he had inside issues that were not 100% treatable. He left behind a companion lab Cooper and a human friend Caleb. He is truly missed everyday.
My mother had recommended LC and when we looked into them, it was best choice for what we wanted. Today is the day I took our Boomer to LC. The staff was so great letting me have my last moments with my boy. She had watched my little boy Caleb while I could have my personal time as long as I needed. She was super nice and explained everything which made me feel so comfortable that he would be in good hands. We pick him up tomorrow and even though the cost, it is so worth it. Thanks once again for the kind words and allowing us to grieve and understand the bond we have. Will definitely recommend LC to friends/family and go for future services.

RIP Boomer. You will forever be in our hearts.

On Thursday, February 25, 2016 we had to say goodbye to our beloved dog Chelsea.
Loyal Companion is such a godsend to me.  I had no idea about pet cremation and what to expect.  My vet recommend them and from the time we sent Chelsea to the "rainbow bridge" Loyal Companion was right there, helping us with our grief, answering questions that might sound silly to some and letting us know that Chelsea is being handled with the upmost care and respect. Thank you for continuing to help us through this process.

We just wanted to say thanks for the kind treatment we received at Loyal Companion on the day we said good-bye to our beloved cat Gypsy. Niki @ LC was great, handling the business aspects of the process in a very caring manner. Niki helped make the time feel more like a celebration of Gypsy's life with us and brought back special memories that we will always treasure. Gypsy was a part of our lives for nearly 18 years and her absence in our home will be keenly felt for some time. However, the compassionate manner in which Loyal Companion enabled us to say good-bye to Gypsy will stay in our hearts forever. We so highly recommend your services and again say thank you.

R.I.P. Gypsy, we shall miss you always.

I want to thank you so much for being so kind, compassionate, caring, and professional during a very difficult time for me and my family. You truly seemed to understand what we were feeling and never once made me feel silly for mourning my beloved dog Jade. You weren't pushy and seemed to know just what I needed. Your products are in good taste and are very touching tributes to those we mourn. I will most definitely recommend your company.  In the event we are in need of this service again Loyal Companion Pet Cremation will definitely be our choice. Your service makes saying goodbye to our beloved and faithful friends a little bit more bearable.

We appreciate the kind words of the staff and supporting us through the loss of our dog Pudge. It is a very emotional time for the whole family and friends of the family and the staff made us feel as they were also family. We can''t thank you enough.

Definitely a place we would recommend to anybody!

Thank you again

this week as been a traumatic week as we lost our 2 year old pongo! As we mourn and try to pick our life back up again! Pongo left behind a life companion missy,  he was her leader  her security, we now have to lead her ! I don't think our hearts have ached so much and we have never been thru the cremation process! He arrived home today and all I can say is thank you! I never expected to have his paw and even his nose print you have given us something to hold onto. Thank you for the care in handling our loved one. The day was a blur I couldn't even hold my own head up let alone think about picking out an urn, but the love and caring that came from you had helped us along the way!  We are forever grateful thank you!!

I wasn't sure how things would go but it was great. The took such care of my baby and every day I hold her clay paw imprint. Thank You again!

Thank You again for helping me deal with the recent loss of my beloved Trey.

It has taken me a while to do this because it was a very emotional time for us.  Our son was home from the Army for only a week when we lost our family dog of 13 years.  Loyal Companion is just that a Companion for a life time. They were so accommodating and even did duplicates of everything so my son would have his own paw print, stone, hair, etc. to carry with him throughout his Army life.  Thank you to Kristen, Christy and the entire staff for making us feel like family.  God Bless You all and God Bless America and our Soldiers!  Please!!!!

I just wanted to say how much Loyal Companions helped with the pain and process of losing our beloved poodle Bo of 14 years. We were lost when he passed suddenly and unexpectedly late one night and I went online and found this place and called and Mike called me back and helped me sort out a plan for the next day. When we arrived Christy D. Yeiser met us at the door and was extremely helpful and nice and spent good quality time with us wanting to know about Bo and our family and even let us have one final viewing prior to leaving him for cremation. When I came the next day to pickup Bo''s remains again Christy was there and spent some time with me as I was upset and they did a wonderful job on everything. They helped so much and we are so grateful to them.               Thankyou so much  Christy D. Yeiser

We appreciate so much your care and understanding with the loss of our loved Rum Tum Tugger. You handled everything wonderfully.

So glad we were referred to you by another customer of yours.  Our Maggie was taken too soon and what a difficult time we were going thru.  Christy was so comforting and caring.  I knew Maggie would be treated with the care she so deserved.  I did not want her mishandled.  Christy has kept in touch with us throughout this journey.  We never had to wonder what was going to take place, she explained everything. questions, she was available 24/7.  Love the tribute page.  We were so pleased with Loyal Companion.  Many thanks for everything you did for us, The Stock Family

On a Sunday evening, our beloved Opie passed away in the car while driving to the Emergency Clinic.  We could have kept going and let them handle his remains, but we did not want to leave him with unfamiliar medical personnel, so we brought him home.  (My friend had found Loyal Companion Pet Cremation in the paper a week or so earlier, and I wrote their site name down for future reference.)  When we got home, I called after 9 PM, thinking I would get a recorder but Kristen answered the phone.  (They really are available 24/7.) She was so nice and understanding.  It was a traumatic experience for us so we opted for Loyal Companion to pick up Opie instead of driving him there in the morning.  Kristen explained how to care for his body until she arrived.  Even with icy roads in the morning, she still called and came to our home to pick up Opie.  Kristen and Christy showed so much respect for our feelings and our pet's dignity.  We are overwhelmed by their supportive care.  In one day, we had Opie's remains with impressions of his nose and paw as memorial keepsakes that we will treasure for years to come.  The fact that they used human cremation standards for our pet was an additional comfort to us.  I cannot recommend any business more highly.  I hope any family going through the loss of a pet will not hesitate to call Loyal Companion.  Our sincerest thank you to Kristen, Christy and staff.

Words could never express our sincere appreciation for your kindness & support given to our family when our beloved Dodger passed away.  Loyal Companions is an excellent facility that offers exceptional service.  Thank you Christy for your compassion during this difficult time.   We will surely recommend your amazing facility to others in need.

Our Bobo passed one the 22nd of December 2014 after having him for 15yrs.  They were very kind and comforting and willing to help in any way. Were very helpful, supportive, and kind. Process was very smooth and reassuring the last moments of his life were taken care of. Thank you so much for everything.

Thank you Kristin & Mike for having the vision to build such a fine facility for our pets when it is time to say goodbye.  Your crematory is so nice and this is the second time we have needed your services.  Thank you for taking good care of our Liz and our Keisha(3 yrs ago).  We are so fortunate you are in our community. I have recommended you to all our friends/family.  Thank you.

Thank you so much for all that you have done. Losing our beautiful Siberian Husky Neeko after 14 wonderful years was so devastating. I called in the middle of the night and you met us at your pet funeral home. It was so wonderful on the respect that you gave our pet and the way that you sat and talked to us about Neeko. You made a very rough time a lot less stressful. After having 14 years with Neeko, it was so wonderful to have a place like yours to say goodbye to my pet. Love you Neeko and I will come get you one day at the rainbow bridge.

I would like to say Thank You to all of you for kind thoughtfulness and support during our loss of Tonka. I would highly recommend the services you offer at Loyal Companion. Thank You All So Much.

I can't thank the wonderful people enough at Loyal Companions for the care and support they've shown me during the recent passing of my beloved companion, Nicky.  Losing a dear furry friend is so hard, and they made my loss more acceptable. Thank you all so much.

I want to thank everyone at Loyal Companions. Thank god there are people who care. I'm so glad I found this company. They truly understand that a pet is a family member. I know Ginger, Cody and Copper are in heaven and looking down and saying thank you to Loyal Companions for the way they handle everything. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.  RIP Ginger, Cody and Copper. I will always miss you and love you.

The very kind folks at Loyal Companions truly understand that a pet is more than just a pet,but that they are a member of your family. Their beautiful facility is set-up to handle all of your needs. When it's time for your loyal companion to depart this world, do not hesitate to call these good people.
                                RIP Snowy

Thank you Kristen for your kindness, compassion, and support during Maisey's untimely passing. Loyal Companion went above and beyond in helping us deal with our loss. It really meant so much to both of us during this very difficult time.

we just wanted to thank Kristen for the care she gave us during piggys passing.  loyal pet companion is the place to go if you have a beloved pet you want to be taken care of in a very loving way. thanks so much. the pricing was great. yous guys are doing a great job

The staff at this facility are so so kind! I just can't say enough nice things about how kind and compassionate they were through the entire process. Makes losing our beloved pets a little bit easier.
And for them to write such a beautiful tribute by remembering our stories that we told them about our life with Maxie is so touching. Christy, Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts for listening to us and for being so compassionate! We were so blessed that our Maxie was in the care of such loving hands, God bless!

Thank you "Christy" for your sympathy and kindness concerning  the loss of Zoe our Siamese cat. With the sudden loss our pet, you were compassionate and sympathetic.

I can't express in words how grateful I am to you for your kindness and professional service.

Sincerely,
Leon and Pam Pisano

Thank you so very much for your compassion and kindness in taking care of our Schnauzer "Sarge" after making one of the most difficult decisions in our life. Kristin was great, going the extra mile, and it's obvious that she really does care. Loyal Companion's service is without a doubt second to none, and we will highly recommend their services to others.
Once again, thank you.

We were still struggling with the loss of our 14 year old cat Jinx on May 1st when suddenly our 13 year old tabby Eddie keeled over.  It was about 8:00 p.m. on Friday, May 23 and we think he missed Jinx and died of a broken heart.  We once again called Loyal Companion and Christy was there for us an hour later.  Losing a pet is a terrible thing but at least we had the comfort of this wonderful angel on earth who with disregard to her personal life, was there for us once again.  We can't speak highly enough about Loyal Companion and the exceptional service they provide. God Bless all of you for your kindness and compassion

Your kindness and support in the loss of our cat Jinx was appreciated more than I can express.

Sincerely,

Pat & Tom Bollander

Jake and I cannot thank you enough for your understanding, kindness, and compassion during one of the most difficult times we have ever faced. When we first met Kristen to discuss possible plans for our beloved Simon, I was prepared with tissues and to cry. Kristen was so kind and compassionate, all she wanted to do was talk about Simon. Instead of crying that day, we found ourselves smiling, sharing stories, pictures and videos. Kristen even welcomed Simon into their business stating.."we are pet friendly." This experience with Kristen made this decision a little easier knowing they "understood" what we were going through and they helped us with making the right decisions for us.

When the time came to need their serivces, Kristen and Michael were both professional and personable. They showed real compassion and dignity when the came for our Simon.  

Simon was a huge part of our fmaily and the staff at Loyal Companion understood. They gave us the time we needed with Simon before saying our last goodbye. Kristen even went out of her way to go to my husband to offer her sympathies knowing how hard this was on him as Simon was with him 24/7 each and every day.

We will definitely recommend Loyal Compansion to anyone looking for these services. Thank you all... we will never forget how you helped us through losing our Simon.

Christy,  no words can explain how much your support and services have helped me in my loss of my best friend, loyal companion of 12 years. She was so much a part of my life. It has been only two wks but it seems like an eternity since she was here.  I miss her so much. Today I went to the mail box & received your beautiful card and a forever picture of my fur baby, Nina......THANK YOU SO MUCH.....I will be forever grateful to you and Loyal Companion......Sincerely, Vivien Hoffmaster........

I wanted to express my sincere thanks to Loyal Companion.  When I had to make one of the hardest decisions to put my shih tzu Bum down I was met with nothing but compassion and kindness.  Since I have not been blessed with children my dogs have become my furry children.  Thank you Mike and Kristen for making the loss more bearable and Christy thank you so very much for treating my Bum like he so very much deserved, you are a very special and kind person.

We cannot thank you enough for the compassion and respect showed to us in the passing of our beloved kitty, Trixie.  The kindness of your entire staff helped get us through this very difficult time.

Kristin I want to express my sincere thanks for your compassion and gentleness when I made arrangements prior to Lady's passing
Christy your "SPECIAL" care you showed the day I brought Lady wrapped in her blanket will never be forgotten. Your gentleness and support was very comforting at a time of loss.

Words cannot express the true gratefulness my family and I have for Loyal Companion. From my initial email inquiring about your services, I knew your company was the one I wanted to take care of our four legged family members when the time came. Sadly for us, that time was Thursday, June 28, 2012, when we were faced with the hardest decision we ever had to make.
After our beloved Barnes lost his battle with kidney disease, we wanted to continue to give him the best treatment possible. He deserved to be treated with the love and respect that he unconditionally gave us his entire life and Loyal Companion made sure that happened.
That night, as I sat on my living room floor holding Barnes, Kristin came in and sat down next to us and took me in her arms, telling me how sorry she was. She was so kind and gentle and I could see she truly understood what I was feeling. I can’t tell you how much that meant to me during that difficult time.
When we came to say our final goodbyes the next morning, we were greeted yet again by another kind and caring person, Christy. You both took the time and listened to our stories and shared our pain, making this process easier for us, especially my 8 year old son.
We want to thank you again for everything you have done for us and for Barnes. Loyal Companion exceeded our expectations by far. You are all truly gifts
from God.

Recently, the Evening Sun published an article about a new business in the Hanover area, Loyal Companion. I read the article with interest and filed it away in my memory bank. Little did I know that I would have need to go to the memory bank far sooner than I would want.
On March 5, 2012, our loyal and loving friend of eight years, Neo, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. Neo was a Border Collie who exhibited most Border Collie traits, but in addition was a most loving companion. Many Clearview residents will recall seeing Neo on his daily walks, come rain or shine.
Once we collected ourselves at Neo’s sudden passing, we remembered the article about Loyal Companion. A call was answered in a very pleasant yet professional manner by the owner. She met us literally minutes later at the beautiful facility housing the service. Her caring and compassionate way of helping us deal with our loss cannot be overstated. We were assured we could take as much time as we needed in making plans for the cremation of our friend. The prompt, courteous and compassionate service will never be forgotten.
We brought our friend home with us the next day and while it is difficult dealing with our loss, Loyal Companion did much to help us

I just wanted to express our sincere thanks for your compassion and gentleness in the loss of our beloved beagle Pebbles. Your kind words and the thoughtfulness are deeply appreciated in our time of sorrow.

Your "SPECIAL" care you showed us in February with our "Goobie" will never be forgotten. That was one of the hardest times in our lives and you showed us so much loving care, both to us and the treating of our baby, yes that is what she was to my husband and I. I tell everyone who has a pet about you and how caring you are. Thanks again for ALL your help at that hard time in our lives! We think of her EVERYDAY and MISS her too!!! Thanks again

I would highly recommend Loyal Companion's services for both traditional burial, or cremation of your departed best friends

Thank you both for helping us with Corky. Your services were outstanding!

I wanted to thank you for everything you’ve done for me and my Rocky! If it wasn’t for you, I’m not sure I would have made it through this horrible ordeal. I will never forget you and Loyal Companion, your sympathy and compassion was overwhelming and greatly appreciated. I want to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart and thank you for taking care of my Rocky!

Would like to say : Thank You Loyal Companion for the services provided for Makita. Kristin,I appreciated all your help , losing her was very painful that day. Makita Marie Tailsworth as my daughter Courtney called her. Makita was a great companion, loyal, protective friend. She loved our Ice Cream break daily. I miss her , but know someday ...we will meet again...Thank You !

Dear Mrs. Hart and Cremation Center staff,

Your kind service took some of the sting out of losing our beloved pet, Nolan, and gave his life a dignified resolution. My wife and I were delighted with the obit you wrote: you really listened when we told you about Nolan. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your sympathy and appreciation for our pet. We recommend Loyal Companion to anyone who has lost a beloved family pet.

It has been 10 months since Loyal Companion took care of my Ginger, at the time the put her to rest I was so upset I was unable to tell them how much I appreciated how much it meant to me the way they took care of my Ginger. Since she has been gone there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about her. Her Companion Luke is not doing well and he will soon be joining Ginger soon. Loyal Companion was a great help and comfort to me the way they handled Ginger as if they were her owner. I just want to thank everyone there and sorry it took me so long to response with a thank you.

Thank you for your professionalism and service. When my husband and I left your facility Saturday evening, we felt like we had received grief counseling. It was comforting to hear your personal stories along with others who have shared in our loss. It has been a difficult few days for us and feels like an eternity adjusting to life without Sugar, but we are grateful for all of the personal mementos Loyal Companion has given us that we can treasure during out lifetime. This is the second time we have had to use your services. We are pleased to recommend you to others, knowing their pet and their feelings will be treated with dignity and respect as ours have been. Thank you again.

Words cannot adequately describe the comfort, sympathy and compassion Kristin gave us yesterday afternoon. We lost our beloved Scooter after 12 wonderful healthy years,
quite quickly, and we were/are devastated. Not wanting to wait any length of time in order to “bring Scooter back home”, nor have the worry of not being able to have a private cremation, my husband searched online and found Loyal Companion. Kristin
was so comforting on the phone as she tried to accommodate our schedule, welcomed our entire family upon our arrival, and treated our Scooter with the utmost respect. Loyal
Companion gets our highest recommendation- we would have been lost without their tremendous service yesterday. A million thank you’s Kristin- we will be sure to recommend you to other dog owners in their time of need.

I wanted to thank you so much for your caring and kindness in one of the worse days of my life. When we lost our little Jasmine you assured us we would be getting our own fur baby back. She was only 7 years old and we were and still are devastated, your caring helped us in our time of heartbreak and tears.

Our neighbor had taken her cat to you a year ago and highly recommended your facility. She spoke highly of the care and kindness she had experienced.
We had just come from the vet after putting our cat of 24 years Squeeky down. We were so sad, when we got to your facility, we were greeted with compassion and kindness. We were so impressed by the care and detail when you laid our sweet pet out for us to say our goodbyes. You made our sad final journey with our pet Squeeky a
rewarding and wonderful way to say farewell.

Words cannot express how highly we recommend Loyal Companion's services and how thankful that we are for the amazing kindness that we received during such a painful time. Our hearts were absolutely broken when we lost our sweet senior girl, Toonces, suddenly in January 2019 and we were left with several decisions that we had to make. Our options were explained to us clearly, but with such care and compassion that it made the process just a little bit easier. About a week after her passing, we received the kindest handwritten card filled with sincere condolences and reassuring words that encouraged us to remember all of the goods times; I’m so thankful that her aftercare is a moment that I can think on fondly, knowing that she was cared for even up to the end. I have recommended this company to anyone I know with pets, because that’s how thankful I am for what they do and how kind and compassionate they were. Sincere thanks for taking care of our best girl, from the bottom of our hearts.

We highly recommend Loyal Companion Pet Cremation, Inc. and Memorial Center. The professionalism shown to us by Sara after the passing of Angel, from the cremation services to the memorial services help, was great! Sara realized this was difficult for Sherri Krepps Warner, Teresa Warner and myself, Dean J. Warner, as she met us at the door of 43 Amy Way in Hanover with a solemn greeting and helped us with our memorial needs. Thank you Sara!

Thanks to Sara and everyone at Loyal Companion. Your help during this trying time was appreciated. I will definitely recommend your service to anyone who need this vital service you provide. I am sure that our beloved Max is Resting In Peace.

Loyal Companion was there at our worst time. I called from the ER moments after we lost our precious Tottie and from the moment you answered the phone to the very next day when I brought his urn back home you were caring, understanding and comforting. Thank you for making one of our worst days manageable. The service you provide is outstanding and exceptional. Knowing who was taking care of our baby was extremely comforting. Kristin and Sarah are the best. I will sing your praises to all my animal loving friends. Again, thank you.

Kristin, this is our 2nd time visiting your crematory. We appreciate your compassion and helping us through our difficult time. You are knowledgeable & sympathetic. You listened as we talked about Cinnamon & Oscar. I love the tribute page & you made us feel like we are family. I just wish we knew you when we had previous furry family members pass away. Thank you for all your help.

Thank you for your professionalism and compassion as we suffered through the death of Loki. You truly helped ease the pain.

Thank you so much for your services. Our family has received your kindness too many time. So glad you are there for us & our friends. Roxie was a special companion for the last 10 years of her life & is missed so much already.

Your kind words and sympathy gave our Shelby the dignity she deserved. We were so distraught and you helped. Thank you for giving our puppy a special place. My jewelry is my greatest treasure.<

We want to express to you how extremely grateful we are for the care you provided to our sweet Daisy. Her passing leaves a huge hole in our hearts and in our lives but the dignity with which she was cared for in the end has been such a blessing to us. Thank you Kristin for the compassion you showed toward us and the respect you gave to our little sweetheart. This is a wonderful service that you provide and we are so thankful we found you. We have already shared our Loyal Companion experience with other pet owners and will continue to do so. We can''t recommend you highly enough! You enabled a terribly painful experience to have a bittersweet closure. Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Losing our BoBo really hit us hard and was totally devastating. We called our Veterinarian after discovering he had passed and they recommended using your services. When we called you, you didn't miss a beat. I am very grateful for the great care you gave BoBo and us too !

I just wanted to thank everyone at Loyal Companion for the concern and care they showed for Rocco. We were so impressed with your services. Our pain from our loss was eased by the special care our faithful pet was given. God bless you all.

People, who do not share their daily lives with pets, may not realize how traumatic it is when that loyal and faithful companion is no longer there. The loss and grief is real. We saw a notice of services from Loyal Companion at the vet''s office. Upon contacting them, it became obvious very quickly, they were the right choice to handle and care for our loyal companions - we had to say goodbye to our two Boston Terriers on the same day. Kristin's caring and compassion was greatly appreciated at this very difficult time. Nancy and I could not have been more pleased with the courtesy and professionalism shown to us. We thank you for your kindness and highly recommend your services.

The care and services given were spectacular. The hard times of losing our beloved dog was eased from the attention and love shown for her and the whole family by everyone at Loyal Companions. Thank you so very much for the special touches and keepsakes. Having you all help us through has allowed us to feel more closure and completeness. So glad we left our Izzy in your hands and care!!

We just want to say Thank You for your services.

It made it a bit easier to know we could bring "Maggie" back home.

You have brought a wonderful business to this community. You have a very pleasant staff working for you. So kind and compassionate.

We want to thank you for everything you have done for Whiskers. You did a great job. She is crossing the rainbow bridge. She is with Snickers who Christy did in August 2012.

My dear friend, Colbie, passed at home on Sept. 8 due to lymphoma. Loyal Companions came at the time arranged and couldn't have been kinder, more compassionate or caring in how they handled Colbie, referring to her by name and assuring us that she would be well cared for. Thank you so much for providing this service and making a terrible situation a little more bearable.

Thank you all so much for helping with the lose of our 1st baby/pet. It was such a devastating time for our family and we felt so relieved that he was in good hands. June 25th, 2016 will always be a terrible day for our family for we had to say good-bye to our beloved Boomer. Only 3 years old, he was so active and loved to run and play with HIS ball, but he had inside issues that were not 100% treatable. He left behind a companion lab Cooper and a human friend Caleb. He is truly missed everyday.
My mother had recommended LC and when we looked into them, it was best choice for what we wanted. Today is the day I took our Boomer to LC. The staff was so great letting me have my last moments with my boy. She had watched my little boy Caleb while I could have my personal time as long as I needed. She was super nice and explained everything which made me feel so comfortable that he would be in good hands. We pick him up tomorrow and even though the cost, it is so worth it. Thanks once again for the kind words and allowing us to grieve and understand the bond we have. Will definitely recommend LC to friends/family and go for future services.

RIP Boomer. You will forever be in our hearts.

On Thursday, February 25, 2016 we had to say goodbye to our beloved dog Chelsea.
Loyal Companion is such a godsend to me. I had no idea about pet cremation and what to expect. My vet recommend them and from the time we sent Chelsea to the "rainbow bridge" Loyal Companion was right there, helping us with our grief, answering questions that might sound silly to some and letting us know that Chelsea is being handled with the upmost care and respect. Thank you for continuing to help us through this process.

We just wanted to say thanks for the kind treatment we received at Loyal Companion on the day we said good-bye to our beloved cat Gypsy. Niki @ LC was great, handling the business aspects of the process in a very caring manner. Niki helped make the time feel more like a celebration of Gypsy's life with us and brought back special memories that we will always treasure. Gypsy was a part of our lives for nearly 18 years and her absence in our home will be keenly felt for some time. However, the compassionate manner in which Loyal Companion enabled us to say good-bye to Gypsy will stay in our hearts forever. We so highly recommend your services and again say thank you.

R.I.P. Gypsy, we shall miss you always.

I want to thank you so much for being so kind, compassionate, caring, and professional during a very difficult time for me and my family. You truly seemed to understand what we were feeling and never once made me feel silly for mourning my beloved dog Jade. You weren't pushy and seemed to know just what I needed. Your products are in good taste and are very touching tributes to those we mourn. I will most definitely recommend your company. In the event we are in need of this service again Loyal Companion Pet Cremation will definitely be our choice. Your service makes saying goodbye to our beloved and faithful friends a little bit more bearable.

We appreciate the kind words of the staff and supporting us through the loss of our dog Pudge. It is a very emotional time for the whole family and friends of the family and the staff made us feel as they were also family. We can''t thank you enough.

Definitely a place we would recommend to anybody!

Thank you again

this week as been a traumatic week as we lost our 2 year old pongo! As we mourn and try to pick our life back up again! Pongo left behind a life companion missy, he was her leader her security, we now have to lead her ! I don't think our hearts have ached so much and we have never been thru the cremation process! He arrived home today and all I can say is thank you! I never expected to have his paw and even his nose print you have given us something to hold onto. Thank you for the care in handling our loved one. The day was a blur I couldn't even hold my own head up let alone think about picking out an urn, but the love and caring that came from you had helped us along the way! We are forever grateful thank you!!

I wasn't sure how things would go but it was great. The took such care of my baby and every day I hold her clay paw imprint. Thank You again!

Thank You again for helping me deal with the recent loss of my beloved Trey.

It has taken me a while to do this because it was a very emotional time for us. Our son was home from the Army for only a week when we lost our family dog of 13 years. Loyal Companion is just that a Companion for a life time. They were so accommodating and even did duplicates of everything so my son would have his own paw print, stone, hair, etc. to carry with him throughout his Army life. Thank you to Kristen, Christy and the entire staff for making us feel like family. God Bless You all and God Bless America and our Soldiers! Please!!!!

I just wanted to say how much Loyal Companions helped with the pain and process of losing our beloved poodle Bo of 14 years. We were lost when he passed suddenly and unexpectedly late one night and I went online and found this place and called and Mike called me back and helped me sort out a plan for the next day. When we arrived Christy D. Yeiser met us at the door and was extremely helpful and nice and spent good quality time with us wanting to know about Bo and our family and even let us have one final viewing prior to leaving him for cremation. When I came the next day to pickup Bo''s remains again Christy was there and spent some time with me as I was upset and they did a wonderful job on everything. They helped so much and we are so grateful to them. Thank you so much, Christy D. Yeiser

We appreciate so much your care and understanding with the loss of our loved Rum Tum Tugger. You handled everything wonderfully.

So glad we were referred to you by another customer of yours. Our Maggie was taken too soon and what a difficult time we were going thru. Christy was so comforting and caring. I knew Maggie would be treated with the care she so deserved. I did not want her mishandled. Christy has kept in touch with us throughout this journey. We never had to wonder what was going to take place, she explained everything. questions, she was available 24/7. Love the tribute page. We were so pleased with Loyal Companion. Many thanks for everything you did for us, The Stock Family

On a Sunday evening, our beloved Opie passed away in the car while driving to the Emergency Clinic. We could have kept going and let them handle his remains, but we did not want to leave him with unfamiliar medical personnel, so we brought him home. (My friend had found Loyal Companion Pet Cremation in the paper a week or so earlier, and I wrote their site name down for future reference.) When we got home, I called after 9 PM, thinking I would get a recorder but Kristen answered the phone. (They really are available 24/7.) She was so nice and understanding. It was a traumatic experience for us so we opted for Loyal Companion to pick up Opie instead of driving him there in the morning. Kristen explained how to care for his body until she arrived. Even with icy roads in the morning, she still called and came to our home to pick up Opie. Kristen and Christy showed so much respect for our feelings and our pet's dignity. We are overwhelmed by their supportive care. In one day, we had Opie's remains with impressions of his nose and paw as memorial keepsakes that we will treasure for years to come. The fact that they used human cremation standards for our pet was an additional comfort to us. I cannot recommend any business more highly. I hope any family going through the loss of a pet will not hesitate to call Loyal Companion. Our sincerest thank you to Kristen, Christy and staff.

Words could never express our sincere appreciation for your kindness & support given to our family when our beloved Dodger passed away. Loyal Companions is an excellent facility that offers exceptional service. Thank you Christy for your compassion during this difficult time. We will surely recommend your amazing facility to others in need.

Our Bobo passed one the 22nd of December 2014 after having him for 15yrs.  They were very kind and comforting and willing to help in any way. Were very helpful, supportive, and kind. Process was very smooth and reassuring the last moments of his life were taken care of. Thank you so much for everything.

Thank you Kristin & Mike for having the vision to build such a fine facility for our pets when it is time to say goodbye. Your crematory is so nice and this is the second time we have needed your services.Thank you for taking good care of our Liz and our Keisha(3 yrs ago). We are so fortunate you are in our community. I have recommended you to all our friends/family. Thank you.

Thank you so much for all that you have done. Losing our beautiful Siberian Husky Neeko after 14 wonderful years was so devastating. I called in the middle of the night and you met us at your pet funeral home. It was so wonderful on the respect that you gave our pet and the way that you sat and talked to us about Neeko. You made a very rough time a lot less stressful. After having 14 years with Neeko, it was so wonderful to have a place like yours to say goodbye to my pet. Love you Neeko and I will come get you one day at the rainbow bridge.

I would like to say Thank You to all of you for kind thoughtfulness and support during our loss of Tonka. I would highly recommend the services you offer at Loyal Companion. Thank You All So Much.

I can't thank the wonderful people enough at Loyal Companions for the care and support they've shown me during the recent passing of my beloved companion, Nicky. Losing a dear furry friend is so hard, and they made my loss more acceptable. Thank you all so much.

I want to thank everyone at Loyal Companions. Thank god there are people who care. I'm so glad I found this company. They truly understand that a pet is a family member. I know Ginger, Cody and Copper are in heaven and looking down and saying thank you to Loyal Companions for the way they handle everything. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.  RIP Ginger, Cody and Copper. I will always miss you and love you.

The very kind folks at Loyal Companions truly understand that a pet is more than just a pet,but that they are a member of your family. Their beautiful facility is set-up to handle all of your needs. When it's time for your loyal companion to depart this world, do not hesitate to call these good people.

RIP Snowy

Thank you Kristen for your kindness, compassion, and support during Maisey's untimely passing. Loyal Companion went above and beyond in helping us deal with our loss. It really meant so much to both of us during this very difficult time.

we just wanted to thank Kristen for the care she gave us during piggys passing.  loyal pet companion is the place to go if you have a beloved pet you want to be taken care of in a very loving way. thanks so much. the pricing was great. yous guys are doing a great job

The staff at this facility are so so kind! I just can't say enough nice things about how kind and compassionate they were through the entire process. Makes losing our beloved pets a little bit easier.
And for them to write such a beautiful tribute by remembering our stories that we told them about our life with Maxie is so touching. Christy, Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts for listening to us and for being so compassionate! We were so blessed that our Maxie was in the care of such loving hands, God bless!

Thank you "Christy" for your sympathy and kindness concerning  the loss of Zoe our Siamese cat. With the sudden loss our pet, you were compassionate and sympathetic.

I can't express in words how grateful I am to you for your kindness and professional service.

Thank you so very much for your compassion and kindness in taking care of our Schnauzer "Sarge" after making one of the most difficult decisions in our life. Kristin was great, going the extra mile, and it's obvious that she really does care. Loyal Companion's service is without a doubt second to none, and we will highly recommend their services to others.
Once again, thank you.

We were still struggling with the loss of our 14 year old cat Jinx on May 1st when suddenly our 13 year old tabby Eddie keeled over.  It was about 8:00 p.m. on Friday, May 23 and we think he missed Jinx and died of a broken heart.  We once again called Loyal Companion and Christy was there for us an hour later.  Losing a pet is a terrible thing but at least we had the comfort of this wonderful angel on earth who with disregard to her personal life, was there for us once again.  We can't speak highly enough about Loyal Companion and the exceptional service they provide. God Bless all of you for your kindness and compassion

Your kindness and support in the loss of our cat Jinx was appreciated more than I can express.

Jake and I cannot thank you enough for your understanding, kindness, and compassion during one of the most difficult times we have ever faced. When we first met Kristen to discuss possible plans for our beloved Simon, I was prepared with tissues and to cry. Kristen was so kind and compassionate, all she wanted to do was talk about Simon. Instead of crying that day, we found ourselves smiling, sharing stories, pictures and videos. Kristen even welcomed Simon into their business stating.."we are pet friendly." This experience with Kristen made this decision a little easier knowing they "understood" what we were going through and they helped us with making the right decisions for us.

When the time came to need their serivces, Kristen and Michael were both professional and personable. They showed real compassion and dignity when the came for our Simon.  

Simon was a huge part of our fmaily and the staff at Loyal Companion understood. They gave us the time we needed with Simon before saying our last goodbye. Kristen even went out of her way to go to my husband to offer her sympathies knowing how hard this was on him as Simon was with him 24/7 each and every day.

We will definitely recommend Loyal Compansion to anyone looking for these services. Thank you all... we will never forget how you helped us through losing our Simon.

Christy,  no words can explain how much your support and services have helped me in my loss of my best friend, loyal companion of 12 years. She was so much a part of my life. It has been only two wks but it seems like an eternity since she was here.  I miss her so much. Today I went to the mail box & received your beautiful card and a forever picture of my fur baby, Nina......THANK YOU SO MUCH.....I will be forever grateful to you and Loyal Companion

I wanted to express my sincere thanks to Loyal Companion. When I had to make one of the hardest decisions to put my shih tzu Bum down I was met with nothing but compassion and kindness Since I have not been blessed with children my dogs have become my furry children. Thank you Mike and Kristen for making the loss more bearable and Christy thank you so very much for treating my Bum like he so very much deserved, you are a very special and kind person.

We cannot thank you enough for the compassion and respect showed to us in the passing of our beloved kitty, Trixie.  The kindness of your entire staff helped get us through this very difficult time.

Kristin I want to express my sincere thanks for your compassion and gentleness when I made arrangements prior to Lady's passing
Christy your "SPECIAL" care you showed the day I brought Lady wrapped in her blanket will never be forgotten. Your gentleness and support was very comforting at a time of loss.

Words cannot express the true gratefulness my family and I have for Loyal Companion. From my initial email inquiring about your services, I knew your company was the one I wanted to take care of our four legged family members when the time came. Sadly for us, that time was Thursday, June 28, 2012, when we were faced with the hardest decision we ever had to make.
After our beloved Barnes lost his battle with kidney disease, we wanted to continue to give him the best treatment possible. He deserved to be treated with the love and respect that he unconditionally gave us his entire life and Loyal Companion made sure that happened.
That night, as I sat on my living room floor holding Barnes, Kristin came in and sat down next to us and took me in her arms, telling me how sorry she was. She was so kind and gentle and I could see she truly understood what I was feeling. I can’t tell you how much that meant to me during that difficult time.
When we came to say our final goodbyes the next morning, we were greeted yet again by another kind and caring person, Christy. You both took the time and listened to our stories and shared our pain, making this process easier for us, especially my 8 year old son.
We want to thank you again for everything you have done for us and for Barnes. Loyal Companion exceeded our expectations by far. You are all truly gifts
from God.

I will never forget you and Loyal Companion, your sympathy and compassion was overwhelming and greatly appreciated. I want to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart and thank you for taking care of my Rocky!
