What Is Private Pet Cremation?
Private pet cremation means your pet is the only animal in the cremation chamber during the entire process. When complete, the ashes returned to you are only your pet's. This is the most personal and intimate farewell option available.
Every private cremation is handled with the same care and dignity we would want for our own companions. Your pet is tracked from pickup to the moment ashes are returned.

Who Chooses Private Cremation?
Private cremation is the right choice if you want to keep your pet's ashes at home, scatter them in a meaningful location, or preserve them in a memorial keepsake. Most Boise families who want ashes returned choose private cremation.
Private vs Communal Cremation
With private cremation you receive your pet's ashes. With communal cremation, multiple pets are cremated together and ashes are scattered on private Idaho land. Read our full comparison guide for more details.
