From my first call with Final Journey, I could immediately tell the staff radiated kindness and…read morecompassion. Making the call was incredibly difficult, but the person I spoke with helped ease some of that burden. At no point during that call did I feel rushed or that my feelings were disregarded. When Kevin and Dr. Maura arrived, they showed the same kindness and compassion. They walked us through the entire process and allowed us some final, meaningful time with our fur baby before we began. The level of empathy they both showed is something I will never forget. Thank you for making such a difficult day a little more bearable and for treating our beloved fur baby with the dignity, love, and respect she deserved. Your compassion truly meant the world to our family.

Final Journey came highly recommended by many in my Facebook community when I was doing what I…read morethought was advance research for my beloved cat, Willow. Unfortunately, I needed their services sooner rather than later, and a compassionate representative scheduled a next day appointment. Kris and Kevin were kind and calming; they explained the process well, let us participate as much or as little as we were comfortable with, in a peaceful and unhurried manner, and were respectful of our grief. Willow was comfortable in their presence immediately, and experienced no stress or pain. Willow was an angel on earth, and deserved the best homecoming we could give her-thank you, Kris and Kevin and God bless what you do!

We selected Pet Passages earlier this week when our beloved but elderly little schnauzer needed to…read morebe euthanized. The staff at Pet Passages was very compassionate and competent, and they made a very difficult situation much more bearable. We felt like we were treated with kindness and respect, and it was very much appreciated. We selected the "Remembrance" package, which was one step up from the lowest-priced option, and the engraved wooden box, velvet bag and various remembrances of our little friend were all very, very nice.....classy and respectful. It's also worth noting that the staff did not try to "upsell" us to a more expensive arrangement, again treating us with respect at a difficult time. We have another little but elderly friend, and when the time comes, we will certainly select Pet Passages again.

I just used Pet Passages in Southbury for the cremation of my beloved Pitbull, "Fetty" after…read moresuddenly and traumatically losing him to acute Kidney Failure. From start to finish the staff was kind, caring and extremely compassionate to my loss. Losing Fetty came just a few days after losing my father to terminal cancer...so this was extremely difficult for my family and I. They met me first thing in the morning after Fetty passed away over night and made the process of paperwork extremely easy which I appreciated because I was beside myself. I left knowing my beloved boy was in good hands with fellow animal lovers who understood the profound loss I was experiencing. Fetty came home today, just 2 days later and with his ashes I received a lovely heartfelt sympathy card along with his nose and paw prints. Thank you to Jill and all the other staff at Pet Passages for taking such wonderful care of my boy...and me during this difficult time. While I hope that no other pet owner finds themselves needing the services of Pet Passages, it's truly comforting to know that there is a wonderful business locally who can care for the final arrangements of your pets large & small. I fully recommend this business if you're looking for cremation for your beloved pet after they pass over the Rainbow Bridge. I know my Fetty will be waiting for me on the other side and for now, he's keeping my dad company until I get there to be with them again

When our beloved dog passed away unexpectedly, the owner, David, personally took my call the night she died and met with us the very next morning. His kindness and genuine empathy were truly comforting during this difficult time. David guided us through the cremation arrangements with great care (and allowed us to choose our preferred package with no upselling) and allowed us to say our final goodbyes to our sweet girl before we left. The cremation was completed the following day, and we received our best girl's ashes in a beautiful wooden urn, a prayer card, and several ink paw prints, all handled with the utmost respect and compassion, from Justin. We are deeply grateful for everything and 100% recommend Beloved Companions.

I'm extremely disappointed with my experience at West Haven Animal Clinic. Their communication was…read moreterrible from start to finish. I paid $150 just for them to look at my cat, only to now have to pay another clinic for a second consult because nothing was handled properly. I was originally told my cat needed a tumor removed and was given a price, but when I arrived for the appointment they suddenly told me she needed two additional procedures I had never been informed about. My cat's surgery appointment was rescheduled and pushed back twice, and when I finally dropped her off on the day, they told me the procedure might not even happen and could be pushed back a *third* time. I missed work for two days because of their lack of organization and communication, and meanwhile my cat continues to be uncomfortable while I have to find another place to take her, which is NOT easy. The only positive part of this entire experience was Melissa at the front desk she was the only person who showed empathy and actually seemed to care. Sadly, that wasn't enough to make up for everything else.
