I've had 2 cats cremated by Dixie Memorial and they were wonderful to deal with, so compassionate and caring. I appreciated their large selection of urns; I found something special for our cowcat Moo that helped my sadness at losing him. Highly recommend them if you are an animal lover like me. read more

We have used Dixie memorial three times now for our beloved dogs and they have been amazing every single time. Very compassionate and understanding people. They also have a vast array of urns to choose from and I think they are very fair priced. All of our dogs have been L or XL sized and we chose marble urns for all of them that matched their coat colors. This is definitely the place I would recommend for any and all pet crematory needs. Our first dog who passed was a german shepherd named Rammstein who passed away in 2014 and when we had to come back here in 2024 when our Husky, Chesty, passed away, one of the employees actually remembered us and our dog, which already says a lot. Today, we had to bring in our other German shepherd named Ice and he was also ready same day for pickup so we could bring him home. During a time that is absolutely heart breaking, Dixie memorials made sure we were taken care of well. read more

I cannot express enough how wonderful these people are. From the initial phone conversation to the very end. The compassion that was shown to me and my sweet Fur baby was like no other. I went from "Not knowing what to do" to ' We got you" in a matter of minutes. Josh picked up my baby and delivered her with the upmost respect and compassion and I had her back home in a day. Thank you all for what you do. You are truly Amazing! Jimmy McCleer read more

If I could give no stars for this business, I would! I've reflected on how the service was executed, and the lack of response from the business owner to my review. read more

A wonderful caring facility which offers everything a grieving FurBaby parent could imagine and then more!! My 14+ year old 5 lb Chihuahua companion was a furry friend, and our security rolled into one!! Anyone would have thought we had a German Shepherd on patrol! As most are aware Chihuahuas are lap dogs, but there were times he guarded over me while I napped only later to march back to his room when I became active and made too much noise for him! My husband did not have a dog when we married and my Chicago FurBaby fell in love with him and his Tennessee grass!! Fast forward 9 years and he was truly one of our 3 kids! Accepting his aging was hard and we decided to allow him to transition at home. So, I apologize for the length of this review, but finding Dixie Memorial was a Godsend. And the backstory is key...Knowing someone has that much care and concern for our loved ones was and is just wonderful! I fed him some bone broth & my husband left to run some errands; and within the hour my FurBaby transitioned peacefully. After making an at home internment final resting place with his favorite lil' winnie the pooh we discussed burying him under his favorite tree...but after an internet search "Lo & Behold" we found your pet garden and we were relieved. As we were running close to the closing time we called and noted we were en route, but traffic would make us 7 minutes late! We were assured, Daniel, would wait. When we arrived my husband stayed in the car. I brought in my FurBaby and Daniel brought him to the viewing area. Daniel is an attentive manager and asked questions and listened closely. He allowed me to share personal stories-he was a gallant knight in shining armor. You could feel his concern and his level of empathy. I chose to have him cremated walked across the RainBow Bridge & sprinkled on the island. Daniel made me feel seen and moreso made my FurBaby seem as important to him as he was to me! I am grateful to the owners of the Dixie Memorial Pet Gardens & Daniel for helping ease the stress of losing a beloved companion! read more

Daniel was so professional with taking care of me and my pet they go the extra mile they have taken care of a few of my pets so this is true everytime .I would highly recommend their service to any and I know thank you again Kevin whalen read more

Our cat died very suddenly early on a Saturday morning. Our veterinarian recommended Dixie Memorial. I called them at 8 am on a Saturday, expecting to get a voice mail. Instead I got an actual person, I'm assuming the owner but I'm not sure. And, I figured the actual person answering would just take my name and number for someone to call back later but no - she took all my information for having our cat cremated and getting an urn and she arranged all transportation, basically all of it. All I had to do was pay. That sounds callous or facetious but I don't mean it like that, what I mean is Dixie Memorial took care of everything and was very helpful as I'm dealing with this and the cat and crying kids etc etc etc. Usually someone makes a comment on Yelp about how the can't wait to come back or patronize a business again and of course I don't but I've got 2 dogs so I know I will. read more

Unfortunately, we've had to have two beloved dogs cremated with Dixie Memorial in the past 2 years, but both times they treated us with such kindness, respect, and empathy. We didn't even have enough money for the private cremation right away this time, but they were willing to hold his remains for a small $75 deposit until we were able to gather the rest of the money. Businesses don't go above and beyond to treat the customers like people in this way any more, so we really appreciated the way they were willing to work with us and give us a little more time. read more

From the moment I reached out to discuss arrangements for my fur baby, they took care of every detail. The customer service was exceptional, and we were able to spend as much time as we needed with him. Thank you for making this transition as smooth and comforting as possible. read more

My dog grim was cremated August 2022. I felt so miserable after losing him so suddenly. They made it so comfortable for me. They have open ear and kind words if you want to vent for a second about losing your loved one. Thank you. read more

I highly recommend this local business. Dixie Memorial Pet Gardens handled the cremation service for my 16 year old Lab. Staff were professional, caring, and sensitive to our family during that difficult time. They offer a variety of burial services: from casket burial to cremation, even viewing services. We opted for the communal cremation, and we attended the Sunday scatter ceremony. The simple ceremony gave us the goodbye we needed, and the lovely garden across the rainbow bridge is a cheerful place for me to visit my sweet Ladybug. Dixie Memorial offers a variety of memory items- such as urns, Jewelry, and paw prints . We opted for a paw print on a small canvas- the perfect reminder of those paws that followed us around for 16 years! I HIGHLY recommend Dixie Memorial Pet Gardens in Millington, TN. If you are pre-planning, visit their lovely grounds during business hours (they do close the gate after hours). Plans can be prearranged, and the options are affordable. Visit their website for more photos and details about the other options they offer. read more

I just went to them for my third cremation and I have had nothing but positive and supportive experiences from each employee I've encountered (one through pick-up and drop-off at my vet's office and the other two I went in). I have pets that people often are uncomfortable with and they have been incredibly respectful and have wonderful bedside manner for grief, plus their urn selection and the grounds are beautiful. Thank you for taking care of my rats on their last journey. It means the world to me. read more

First, let me say ... if I could give them 10 stars, that wouldn't be enough. Barbara was GREAT! After I called her 4 or 5 times in two days, she was just as patient with me as when I called her the first time. I don't know how she does what she does with so much love, patience, and grace. It's hard enough when you loose your fur babies, and the last thing you need is to talk to someone who isn't patient and caring. Thank you Barbara, for helping me through the worse day of my life. The quality of the Urn, and the plaque was BETTER than what I expected. I don't remember the name of the gentleman who came to my home to pick-up Candy, but he was wonderful too. Thank You!!! I am FOREVER Grateful!!! Carolyn DuPuy read more

Millington is a sleepy little town, once bustling with Navy Personnel shuffling paperwork for our military. It's been awhile. Dixie , appropriately named, lies on the outskirt down a quiet country road. Leo and Dooney and Sheridan are now playing and splashing in the pond. No signs of letting up. Unleashed, and free of pain. My heart is heavy, I miss them. But I can't help but smile and laugh when I remember that God's creatures were meant to comfort me. To be my BFFs, loaned to me for a reason. This is the reason, life and love . Rainbows after the rain. Thank you, Dixie Gardens. read more

We have 3 pets buried at Dixie. They are so nice to deal with. I would highly recommend. The cemetery is nicer than a lot of people cemeteries. read more

The staff of Dixie Memorial provided excellent service as we dealt with the loss of our pet of over 19 years. They coordinated with my veterinary office to pick up and drop off remains so I didn't have to transport my beloved cat's body further. Barbara Wells was patient and kind in helping me make decisions, including the type of urn and the engraved name plate (which needed extra patience), while being upfront about costs and payment options. I also got a courtesy call from the driver who dropped off the cremains, so that I could pick them up soonest. The urn and paw prints were as described and seem well-made. I have not yet inserted a photo in the front of the urn, but I was given clear instructions. I appreciate Dixie Memorial's help in providing a dignified way to honor our long-term companion. read more

Barbara did a great job of honoring our sweet, recently-departed Pug, Maggie. In addition to coming to Stage Road Animal Hospital to pick her up on a Saturday, they took care of things quickly, showed a lot of compassion, and delivered Maggie's remains in a beautiful box. They were timely and efficient in notifying us of all the steps in the process and I thank them for it. This is not a place anyone WANTS to be for obvious reasons, but if it comes to it, please do consider contacting Barbara to properly honor your loved one. I have personally called Barbara to thank her and am doing this Yelp review to help bring attention to her business. read more

Dixie Memorial Pet Gardens picked up our fur baby at Lakeland Pet Hospital. We were treated with such kindness by the owner, Barbara Wells and by Josh, who helped us.

We had the sad opportunity of using Dixie Pet Memorial Gardens this week. After my husband spoke with Barbara on the phone, my daughter and I drove over with our dog in the car and we were greeted promptly by a very nice young man who I'm sorry to say I can't remember his name. We took care of the paper work and went out to the car to hand over our sweet dogs body for cremation. The young man handled this so gently when he put him on the gurney and even called our sweet boy by name. By three that afternoon we could return to pick up his ashes in two urns we picked out. Everything worked exactly as promised. It was a very pleasant experience all around. The grounds were nicely kept and very neat. There is even a rainbow bridge and a little meditation garden. A sweet place for our fur friends to be. We were quite impressed. I would recommend them to anyone who needs this service. They could not have been any nicer. read more

I can't say enough good about Mrs Barbara and the understanding that she has in the time of mourning. We lost our precious fur baby Buster this morning and she helped my wife with care and understanding that can't be faked. I'm so glad that she was there to help. Thank you Mrs Barbara and Dixie memorial for the first rate service! !! read more

Barbara did a superb job of taking care of my girl Gracie after she passed away last week. One of her staff members picked up Gracie at Southwind Animal Hospital and transported her to Dixie Memorial for cremation. Barbara helped me select a beautiful cherry urn and ensured that it had the correct engraving on the memorial plate to honor Gracie's legacy as a law enforcement K-9 and my companion. Barbara's sincere compassion and kindness was instrumental in helping me work through the grief that I've experienced since losing Gracie. Dixie Memorial provides a superb service to their clients when they must say "Good bye." to their four legged family members. Thank you Barbara. read more

No one wants to be here. But, with that said the sad reality is, if you love an animal the time will come. I spoke to Barbara on the phone and she was quite helpful. I arrived when she said I would be able to get the cremation I requested, for my beloved dog done. I wanted it done same day. I did not want to have to come back. I did not leave my pet at the vet for a pick up. I took him every way through the process until it was done. He had always been at my side, why should I desert him now? They have four separate ovens so that your pet is not mixed in with any others. The facility on the inside looked to be recently renovated and quite sparse of furniture, etc. The person there was helpful, and the process was completed in a timely manner. We had a window to view the box he was in slipped inside and then it was over. His remains were put in the urn I chose and placed in a velvet bag for our last ride home. The grounds and exterior do need some maintenance and general upkeep done. If my pet were buried here, I would expect more. Other than that, I do appreciate their help at this very terrible time in my life. read more
