Private pet aquamation
Individual care.
Meaningful choices.
We offer private aquamation exclusively. We do not provide flame cremation. Your pet receives individual care, and their powdered remains are returned to you in the urn included with your selected package.
Aquamation is a water-based alternative to flame cremation. Gentle Tide helps with arrangements, pickup, and return, so you have a clear point of contact throughout.
Understand aquamation →Three packages, one promise of care.
Gold starts at $300, Platinum at $600, and Diamond at $900. Final pricing depends on your pet’s weight.
Every package includes pickup and return. Standard return is 5–7 business days; Diamond includes expedited return in 3–5 business days.

Care for dogs, cats, and veterinary clients.
Read our dog aquamation and cat aquamation guides. Veterinary teams can discuss adding aquamation as an aftercare option.
Support before and after a loss.
If you need help arranging in-home euthanasia, we can help coordinate with independent veterinarians. Gentle Tide does not perform euthanasia. Read about this support.
