Laying my beloved Darla to rest was one of the most painful moments of my life, yet Pets Rest Cemetery provided a level of care, respect, and spiritual comfort that brought peace to my heart. Their grounds are serene and beautifully maintained, offering a sacred space where our companions can rest with dignity. I want to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and Julio, whose compassion and professionalism were truly a blessing. Teresa guided me with patience, gentleness, and understanding, making every step feel supported. Julio handled Darla's arrangements with profound respect, treating her as a cherished soul rather than just a pet. Their kindness reflected true humanity and grace. In a moment of grief, they offered not only service but comfort rooted in compassion, reminding me that God watches over all His creatures. I felt that Darla was honored, cared for, and entrusted to a place where love continues beyond this life. Pets Rest Cemetery is more than a resting place -- it is a sanctuary. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a peaceful, respectful, and spiritually comforting place to honor their beloved companion. I'd like to thank everyone at Pets rest cemetery for your patience and support! From, The Amaya Family!

My pet passed away on July 1st, 2026. Pet's Rest staff Elizabeth and Tresea were very kind and compassionate. Throughout the process they communicated with us. They made all the arrangements to pick up our beloved pet. Julio gave us enough time in the chapel with so say our goodbye. Thank you Pet's Rest staff for all of your support and compassion throughout this difficult process!

I needed cremation services for my beloved pet who passed away. I called the crematorium, scheduled a cremation service, and requested a witness and pickup. After the call, they promptly came to collect the remains. The cremation was scheduled about a week later. When I arrived at the location, Mr. Julio provided me with a detailed explanation. He led me to the cremation room, and I had to wait about an hour for the process to complete. Everything went smoothly. Mr. Julio was empathetic, efficient, and showed utmost respect for the remains, which I truly appreciated. He truly goes above and beyond. Thank you, Mr. Julio. The prices seemed reasonable, and I would definitely use their services again. I highly recommend this place. P.S. Their chapel has a shrine dedicated to several deceased pets, so I suggest bringing a photo to add to the pantheon.

My cat passed away, and it was really important to me to give him a natural burial rather than cremation. Since I live in an apartment and didn't have a place to bury him, I'm so grateful there's a pet cemetery nearby. The people at Pet's Rest were incredibly kind and gentle, and they treated the whole process with so much care and sensitivity. It truly meant a lot during such a difficult time.

My Baby Boys Resting Place

My baby boy passed from congestive heart failure on a Saturday Jan 4th, 2025. It was somewhat sudden but with him about to turn 14 I had done some research and decided I wanted to bury him rather than cremate. I found Pets Rest, read reviews, looked at pictures and decided that I would bury him there when the time came. The time came sooner than I could have ever expected, I was hysterical, it was a weekend so pets rest is closed. But the after hours answering service was extremely helpful & directed me to bring my boy to the sf spca to store him properly or keep him cold at home. (I chose to keep him chilled at home until getting in Touch with someone during opening hours.) When they opened that week I went in & I spoke with Theresa from Pets rest who is beyond amazing. She was sincere, patient & so helpful. My boy was firm from storing him cold but she knew how much I wanted to do the paw print keep sake they offer so she tried that day, they didn't quite come out because he was hard to move. She offered to do it the day of his burial and have him rest at room temp a bit to get better prints. This was so amazing I have them in a shadow box now and can't thank her enough. Now for the burial process. Pricing is totally fair. I picked his spot set a date and time. It was really a breeze. They offer coffin/box there for a reasonable price that they build to size. I opted to have my boys box custom made elsewhere so that's an option too. The day of burial was emotional and difficult but Theresa & the groundskeepers were amazing. They were patient and respectful. It was not a joke to them and I appreciate how delicately they handled it all. They allowed me to throw the first dirt and also gave me all the time I needed, everything was at my pace. They said when you're ready just let us know. I can't thank the entire team at pets rest enough. I miss my boy dearly. Everyday. I am thankful to have a place to see him Rest In Peace Android. My #1 Son Bun Thank You Pets Rest.

Brought our 17 1/2 year old Koko to be cremated here. We opted for the witness cremation. Everyone was kind and compassionate.

Ask the Community - Pet's Rest Cemetery and Crematory

Is it more money to be present when it's being done? Can I book a private on-site cremation over the phone?

Yes, it is more expensive to be present. it is called a "witnessed cremation" The last one I did for one of my cats was $230. You are present when they place the pet in the incinerator, you have to leave while the incinerator is on. You come… 

For individual cremation pet owners, do you really get back your pets' ashes?

Yes you do and you can schedule a witnessed cremation where you can watch your pet's remains being laced in the unit and removed when finished.

I had to send my Sebastian to Doggie Heaven two weeks ago (10.05.26) . He was diagnosed with…read morediabetes a little over 3 years ago. He went blind about a month after the diagnosis. At the end, it wasnt diabetes that ended Sebastian's reign as World's Favorite Dog. It was cancer. Dr Karen Vine was a blessing to work with. She sent me a text to let me know she was on her way. She was patient with my family as we surrounded Sebastian with love and said our goodbyes. She gave us extra time and did not even attempt to rush the experience. She knew that our family has gone through the euthanasia process before (with our other family dogs), but still was very thorough in explaining the process to my family, explained what each shot was and how it'll affect Sebastian. Dr. Karen had some Churu cat treats in her medical bag, which apparently dogs seem to love. My Sebastian apparently loved them. She offered me a 2nd one after Sebastian devoured the first one. It kept his focus on the snacks as she administered the first shot. She would then explain in detail what the 2nd shot was, and how Sebastian should be affected by it. She would also confirm if I was ready for the 2nd injection before administering it. Finally, she explained that the 3rd injection would be the last & final one, which would finally put Sebastian to his forever rest & send him off to Doggie Heaven. She backed away from us and gave us the time we needed to say our final goodbyes. Again, no rushing us at all. She waited until she saw that each family member had their turn to say their goodbyes to Sebastian. With that said, she asked me if I was ready for the final shot. I wasnt, but Sebastian was... so I said yes to take away his pain, and make it my own. I want to thank Restful Paws & Dr Karen Vine for helping send Sebastian over the Rainbow Bridge. You guys turned this Pawrent's worst day into a compassionate and loving send-off for my Sebastian. Thank you guys for everything. And, thank you Dr. Vine for the Thank you card!

This is the review I have been holding off for a while…read more Today marks 6 months since we used this service. This has been the most difficult and saddest decision we've had to make. When I contacted Restful Paws, I didn't know what to expect. In fact, I felt bad crying on the phone because I couldn't imagine trying to talk to someone like me at that moment. But the staff couldn't be more understanding and supportive. Unlike making end of life decisions for your fur baby, the process of scheduling this appointment was very easy. Restful Paws asked all the right questions, set the expectations, and made this process that much easier. And on the day of, Dr. Ami arrived promptly at the scheduled time. She was very caring and understanding, and she put all of us at ease. We could not have asked for a better last day for our Sodapop. I'm thankful that we reached out to restful pause, and grateful that they were able to come to our house to help us get through this phase. Weeks later, we received a card from Dr. Ami sending us her condolences. Thank you, Restful Paws, for doing the service that you do. I'm sure it's not easy, and I can only imagine how sad it is to do this on a daily basis. Thank you so much!

It took this long to get around to a review because it's still hard to think about her without getting emotional, but I did want to write this since everything written before in these reviews was also our experience---Dr. Park came on a Friday at about noon, just three or so hours after our initial request, and when she arrived, she was totally professional, sensitive, and supportive throughout the process, which happened in our backyard under the sun. Moonie's passing was truly heartbreaking for us, but it was also completely painless and peaceful for her, and for that we thank Dr. Park. Highly recommended.

Dr. Park's contact information provided a phone number where we can communicate via text, so I texted an initial inquiry on a Saturday afternoon, not expecting a prompt response. Within 30 minutes, Dr. Park responded. Thankfully, she was available for a Monday morning appointment. She provided links to all the pertinent information needed: pricing, process, and FAQs. Also provided were the necessary links to book the services. Dr. Park arrived at the scheduled appointment time and immediately sought to comfort our dog and our family. After reviewing the process with us again, she made sure to answer all our questions and only proceeded when we stated we were ready. She waited patiently while we said our final farewells before proceeding. The procedure went exactly as described, and Dr. Park provided much needed words of comfort once our beloved pup crossed over. She placed his body in a modest basket carrier, complete with flowers, and gave us the time we needed before taking him away. We couldn't have asked for more with the service Dr. Park provided. She exceeded our expectations to lay our dog to rest with the utmost dignity. We fully appreciate the service Dr. Park provided and highly recommend her services. She even sent us a sympathy card a few days after, a nice touch! Her pricing is transparent and reasonable. Thank you so much, Dr. Park!

Sharon has been such a wonderful groomer to my Pomeranian, Zack. She always took such good care of…read morehim every time he went in for his wash and grooming. He would come home smelling so good and fresh, and somehow always looking even more handsome than when I dropped him off. What I appreciated most was how gently and lovingly she handled him, especially as he got older. You can truly tell she cares about the pets she works with and treats them like her own. She even helped me trim my pitbull Gotti's nails (he passed away in August 2025). Even though Sharon normally only works with small dogs, she was so kind and willing to help me out with Gotti. That meant so much to me. I also brought my friend's dog, Bella, to Sharon for the longest time. Bella passed away two years ago, and she always smelled so good after a visit with Sharon. She truly had a special touch with all of them. Zack recently passed away as well, so I won't be bringing him in anymore, and that makes me so sad. I will definitely miss our visits with Sharon. I'll also miss seeing her sweet dog, Molly, who always greeted everyone that walked through the door. That warm welcome made it feel even more special. Her studio may not be the fanciest place out there, but what truly matters is the care, attention, and love she gives to our pets. That means everything. Now all of my doggies are in heaven, and I'm sure they all miss Sharon. I'm so grateful she was part of their lives.
