She was so helpful with sharing her own experiences and she provided the most amazing resources to help us talk with our children about the loss of our dog, Toni.

Unfortunately it seems that pets seem to pass on a weekend or holiday. My daughter's kitten passed…read moreon a weekend, and answering service said someone would call me back. It was over a year ago, and I still haven't gotten that call. My miss kitty passed sometime through the night into Saturday morning. I called again after o saw on their website to call for weekend hours, and a review said they opened up on a weekend for their kitty. I got the return call, and was told they don't open on weekends. I told Kimberly I saw on website that they have weekend hours plus a review said they opened for them on a weekend. She was surprised! Asked who it was, I said someone in Touissett and she said, "oooh Touissett", like they are better than anyone else. I will not be doing business with them ever again. Less than one star!

Our veterinarian does not offer euthanasia at home, so when our senior dog Trooper's lymphoma had…read morestarted to impact his quality of life, they referred us to Dr Holt. Having been a rescue, Trooper was always happiest at home. We didn't want his last moments to be full of stress in a clinical environment. Dr. Holt was very responsive and was able to quickly provide us with a few scheduling options. When the dreaded day came, she was very compassionate both with us and with our dog. She explained the process, and did not rush us once he had passed. Dr. Holt made everything as easy as possible for us - including one fee that included her services as well as cremation services through a third party. We recommend Dr. Holt to help you say good-bye to your fur baby in a way that will be as comfortable as possible for them and for you.

My cat Scully passed on Friday. We have a burial plot at Hillside Acre, which was closed for…read moreVeterans Day. My mother emailed Dave Gordon, who responded over the weekend. He arranged for us to bring her remains to Nevins Farm's shelter on Sunday. When we attempted to do so, we had a very distressful situation with a member of the shelter's staff and, therefore, did not leave Scully's remains at the shelter, (see my review of Nevins Farm's animal shelter for more information). Dave personally went to the shelter Monday morning to address the issue. Meanwhile, we went to the shelter and met with Glen Gaccione, who was also very respectful and understanding of what we've been through. Due to what happened the day before - although it wasn't any fault of theirs - Hillside Acre gave us a refund for the cost of the burial. Hillside Acre staff also demonstrated sympathy and compassion three and a half years ago when my cat Mulder passed, as well as several years ago with my parents' cat Lego. Hillside Acre cemetery is large and well maintained. Glen was outside attending to the grounds when we arrived yesterday. The area has a fence. Anyone with a burial plot as a key to the grounds to visit grave sites, which are protected from the general public. They have an office area for business that's apart from a functioning kitchen and a viewing area with comfortable seating. You can now buy grave stones through Hillside Acre. They also offer grief support and memorial tributes. Burials are free for dogs who have served this country in the military.

While I am very sad that my cat died, I can't imagine kinder people to interact with at such a time…read morethan Beth and Mike, the caretakers of Pine Ridge Pet Cemetery in Dedham. When my cat's health worsened last year I contacted them and prepaid for a plot and for burial, as well as for them to pick up his body after he died. They were very clear about my options and were also compassionate about my situation in their emails to me, and after they received my payment they sent clear instructions about what I should do after my cat died. When my cat recently died, I followed those instructions and they picked his body up and buried him without any issues, and also sent me a list of monument makers that previous clients have used. I'm glad that there is a pet cemetery nearby and that so many of us have chosen to bury our beloved animals there.

Some with so much patina they were difficult to read. This just goes to show how much pets mean to mankind. If you do go for visit I highly recommend a walking stick and sturdy shoes as the grounds are quite uneven. There are many stones and markers situated under trees and their root systems. So be warned. Depending on the time of year you go, bug spray might not be a bad idea. We enjoyed the walk as did the dogs!
