“Upon arrival, Gabe was also very understanding and helpful, even offering me the chance to give last words before carrying her off.”
“They were very attentive, caring and responsive through the whole process. The owner responded to my texts promptly and made me feel like Posh was being treated with the same care and respect she deserved.”
“They handled them with such care. I cant say this enough but thank you Gentle Tide so much they really helped during our hard time so we can grieve and have our loving pets again.”

What is aquamation?
Water instead of fire.
The same enduring love.
Aquamation uses water, gentle warmth, and an alkaline solution. Gentle Tide offers aquamation exclusively; we do not provide flame cremation.
Your pet’s powdered remains are returned to you in the urn you choose, with keepsakes that help you hold their memory close.
