Memory Gardens Pet Crematorium - Lively, Ontario

Naizzers H.

I want to thank Memory Gardens for their wonderful services. Our sweet old boy Zero passed away suddenly in January and his sister and littermate, Mimi, went just nine days after him. Our hearts were absolutely shattered over losing both of them so closely together after 15 wonderful years.

Memory Gardens helped us to take care of our babies properly and returned their remains to us as quickly as possible in a very dignified and thoughtful way.
Having a service like this is so vital to pet parents.

I’m grateful that we were able to bring them right into where they would be cremated so we could see the entire operation. This may be jarring for some people so be forewarned if that may be an issue for you, but I appreciated the transparency and honesty of what we were there for.

They gave us the time we needed to say our goodbyes alone with no rushing.
There were no empty platitudes or push to buy anything extra. They were compassionate and respectfully professional.
Their prices are reasonable for the work they do and I highly recommend them.

Thank you again to the team at Memory Gardens; your hearts must be massive to do this difficult and important work.

Memory Gardens is an amazing place with amazingly kind staff. I am very glad my baby was cremated in such a peaceful space.
The staff understood my urge to get my baby home as soon as possible because the pain of waiting was so excruciating as she has been right by my side for 13 years. They kindly got her back to me the next day. The urn options are beautiful. The wonderfully warm hearted woman at the front desk was so helpful & understanding. It made a world of a difference during this time, the hardest time of my life. Thank you Memory Gardens. You made things less painful. & having her home now I can try to put what's left of myself back together 💜

Thank you to the staff at memory gardens for being so kind to my son and I.
Loosing our best friend of 10 years was so difficult, they all were so patient and gave us privacy to grieve and say our final goodbyes. We had a hard time letting him go. We got our pups ashes back in a timely manner and in a nice box.
I am truly grateful for the kindness shown to us and our dog Dexter.

I would like to sincerely thank the staff at Memory Gardens for their outstanding support during the recent loss of my three-year-old Aussiedoodle, Louie. Their compassion and understanding were invaluable, particularly following our difficult experiences with multiple blood transfusions in an attempt to save her.

The professionalism with which Louie was transported and the care taken in presenting her ashes in a beautiful box, along with the necklace I selected, truly made a difference during this challenging time. These thoughtful gestures provided the comfort and closure I needed.

Thank you once again for your kindness and exceptional service. -The Barbeaus

It has been just under a year that our Sadie girl passed over to the rainbow bridge. We have her ashes at home and have been unable to bring ourselves to bury her. Thank you to Memory Gardens for enabling us to have her ashes as home with us. Our vet arranged for Sadie to be sent to Memory Gardens for cremation and her ashes were returned to our vet in less than a week. We are so thankful for Memory Gardens. Being able to have her cremated in Sudbury just made things a little bit easier for us.

They were amazing throughout the entire experience of losing our dearest companion and best friend. There are no words for the loss we felt that day but the staff at memory gardens made everything perfect and really helped with some closure. Thank you all so much. We are so glad to have Kaz home with us.

Had to use memory G 2 years ago and it was very nice then. I called to bring my cat to memory G and was told to go to Walden clinic NEVER stepped foot in memory gardens not even to pick my cat up. Walden never bothered to call me to tell me he was ready.I called memory G and the man said he was ready for pick him up At the clinic !!? Really! I had to stand in line and wait for the girl to hand me a BOX over the counter with my cats ashes in it. It was so cold & heartless and very unprofessional. 2 years ago when I was there everything was done at Memory Gardens. It was very peaceful and professional and no one was around. This should not take place in a clinic. They should meet you over at the Memory G. The next time around is pets at peace. Worth the drive. Walden is not a nice place to bring your deceased pet. Too bad memory gardens was compassionate two years ago. Not anymore..very sad. Also, there was ashes all over the outside of the urn.. and the staff at Walden Animal Hospital sign the sympathy card! which is wrong because they never even wanted to see my cat when he was sick!!

We had quite the ordeal with our vet, apparently they were going to send our beloved Crystal to New Liskeard to get cremated. We did not know this at the time. We were told we would have the ashes within a week. Day 14 she was still waiting to be picked up by New LIskeard. I was told it could take up to six weeks to get her back. We were absolutely devastated. Not acceptable to us. I spoke to Memorial Gardens to see if I could get her done there instead. They picked her up at the vet for me, did the cremation and our Crystal is back home where she belongs within a day. Thank you so much for being so caring and compassionate. We will never forget what you did for us.
