it’s been so hard this past week since we had to let go of our 14-yr old Teddy, but today they called & said his ashes & footprint were ready for pick-up. Thanks so much for the wonderful display box & heart-shaped glass container, along with lots of other nice sweet memories. It feels so good to have him back home with us!!

most of my pets are cremated through yadkin valley, and i’ve always been throughly impressed and seen. i thought i was used to the remembrance items i’d receive along with my ashes, but this time i was surprised with my cats whiskers and microchip as well. thank you for being so thoughtful and never failing to impress me further yadkin valley!

Our pet's illness was sudden onset with a rapid decline. We lost him within days of his diagnosis. We were prepared for huge vet bills, not to lose our very loved 'baby'. They were incredibly kind. The process was much quicker than I expected and the presentation of my pet's remains was just lovely. I will absolutely be using their services in the future; because we all know pet lovers eventually get new pets, and absolutely recommend them if you want a caring, beautiful final memorial for your pet.

We are so thankful we found this place. Our sweet cat was 14 years old and suffered multiple strokes. When we noticed his back legs stopped working, I called yadkin valley pet funeral services. We knew that euthanasia would be best. Dr. Brinegar and his staff were so kind to us and made this experience as seamless as possible. Yadkin Valley was amazing, especially John. You could tell he showed true empathy and was able to help us in a timely manner. The environment felt comfortable, which is what we wanted the most. The best part is they give you a lot of options for how you want the experience to go. Our baby didn’t suffer and we were able to get a beautiful box with his ashes and name plate. We also chose to get an ink paw print on canvas. I couldn’t have asked for a better group to experience a pet loss. It was so difficult losing our baby but I wouldn’t recommend going anywhere else.

Very happy with the services we received for our pet. Thank you so much.

Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services has provided excellent services to two of our pets. The pain is unreal, but the owners of this place took such great care of them. They understand the pain, are very sympathetic and such great people. Thank you for taking such great care of Dixie and Chipper. Rainbow Bridge is a much better place when you know that your pets were taken care of and loved on before cremation.

So thrilled to have my boy back. I couldn't be happier with their service. Just means so much to me. Very beautiful.

YVPFS really helped me and my husband deal with losing our 15 1/2 year old, little 4 pound Yorkie, Bella. Ava was so helpful and consoling when we were there with Bella. We placed her in the Chapel and loved on her to say goodbye before she “went to sleep.” She’s resting comfortably now in Heaven with her cousin Beau. We lost 6 years ago to lung cancer. 😢 We have her 🐾 print, fur with her hair bow, urn box with her name plate we designed on it, the certificate of aquamation and The Rainbow Bridge Poem with a wild flower seed cluster in the shape of a 🐾 ❤️ We greatly appreciate your support in helping us handle losing Bella. Having her home is so special.

I have had several experiences with the staff and Ava even just this week they are wonderful folks and they restore my faith in humanity so compassionate and caring with the pets and with their grief stricken family

Hi, I just wanted to thank you for the thoughtful and caring way in which you handled Rocky's and Emmy's passing and aquamation. You have more than a pet funeral service--it is a ministry to pet parents and families who have lost a beloved pet who is part of the family and not just an animal to be disposed of. The products you provide are the best--exquisite really--and reflect the caring way in which you all handle this difficult process. I feel that our babies were laid to rest in a manner befitting our love for them, and we are so thankful you were there to help us do that.

Sadly, this time will come again for our elder pets, and I will be sure to call on you for your services when it does.

We lost our cat of 20 years . Found out about this service from our vet. We decided to take him there after talking to Ava and looking at their web page. What a gift. We had our own private service with him in their chapel. What a gift it was. The hardest thing was leaving him but they were so nice. We got his ashes today with a paw print, fur, beautiful box and name plate with his name on it presented in such a beautiful way. Thank you Anne and John what a gift you gave us. David & Brenda

Ava and the entire team at Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral services will forever be some of the most compassionate and professional people you could ever meet. They made a very heartbreaking time bearable for my family, and I will always be grateful for their services. Know that your pet is being lovingly prepared and they will keep you informed along the way.

The amount of thought, and care that came with my Brucey boys cremation is incredible! I’m so thankful I chose them for his cremation. When I tell you his hair in the envelope threw me for a loop all I could do was laugh with excitement and joy. I didn’t even think about his hair being important to me, but I’m thankful that they sent it to me.

YVPFS treated my sweet baby with the upmost respect. They answered my questions and responded very quickly to my inquiry. My baby is home safe with us. My sweet Jersey girl was ran over one early morning about 2am. We had an tractive GPS collar on her. I’m so thankful she was wearing it because it took me right to her. I can’t explain the pain I felt when I saw her laying in the middle of the road. She didn’t deserve this. She taught us how to love in ways I never knew were possible. We miss her so much but we are very thankful for a beautiful, local company for helping us with this process. They were very affordable, I think the basic service was like $165 which included the box where her remains are, certificate of aquamation, book mark, fur & whiskers. We added the inked paw print for an additional $15 and the clay paw print for an additional $25. Total I think it was $205. We dropped jersey off at a local vet here in Mount airy. They picked her up on a Tuesday & her remains were delivered back to the vet on Thursday. Thank you so much for being so great to our fur baby. We will forever miss you, Jersey. Fly high my sweet angel. I love you! She was so Purfect!

I am so happy I called Yadkin Valley pet funeral services. I did not know what to do next after I lost my best friend. As I was looking for options and next steps, I was torn on what to pick, burial or cremation, and neither gave me peace or comfort. I then read about another option called Aquamation. As I read about it, I had immediate peace while reading through what the process does. I called them and Eva walked me through every step, sympathized with me, was kind, knowledgable and patient through every step. I knew she cared about the service she was providing and how difficult this time in my life was. She explained the process and also walked me through the store selections as I decided on items that were included with the service as well as additional items I may add to it, if I wanted to but didn’t have to. It was super helpful.

Well the day has come and today I brought my Ellie home!. Everything was perfect. The Urn I selected, the inscription and all other items I ordered were careful delivered to the hospital. She not only texted me when she picked Ellie up from the hospital but also when she returned to the funeral home with her. Ava then texted me to let me know that my Ellie is ready to go home and is waiting for me at the vet hospital. I am So thankful that this service is available and so thankful that I had a trusted and caring person walking me through the most difficult time of my life.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Aquamation and HIGHLY RECOMMEND calling Ava at Yadkin Valley pet funeral services. She will care for your loss as if it was her own. That’s what she did with Ellie!!

Wonderful company and people to deal with. They take great pride and compassion in their services.

Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Service did a great job taking care of my baby girl and made it a very smooth process from start to finish.I highly recommend them and their services for your end of life plans, aquamation service and memorial service's. Ava (the owner) was extremely sweet and really understood my pain losing my fur baby. I can't thank Ava and John enough for being so kind during this process. ❤️

My sweet Lulu was put to rest beautifully.

We highly recommend Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services. The care and support, compassion they give us us outstanding.

We are so grateful for Y.V.P.F.S’s kindness, efficiency, clear communication and assistance in taking care of our sweet dog in his last moments. We were not familiar with Aquamation and found it to be a comforting alternative to other options. Our boy always loved the water. The staff we communicated with was nothing short of graceful and made this sensitive process seamless. We are so grateful for your services.

I just would like to thank these wonderful people for their help in the loss of my precious darling best friend Franky. He was 16 years old and my most most best friend ever! They were so helpful with the aquamation and got him back to me within three days and even met me so I would not have to drive all the way to Elkin. I highly recommend these folks for any services that you might need in my hope is that you never need it.

I was in tears again seeing how much care and quality was used in the cremation process. You did Brady proud. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Losing my precious Cali after 18 years was not easy. The Rainbow Bridge poem and, especially, the envelope of fur and whiskers was more than I ever imagined I would receive back in her memory. The box with her ashes was beautiful. I would highly recommend Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services to anyone that wants to have special memories of a loved pet.

I recently lost my beloved cat of 17 years. I’ve lost indoor cats before & always kept their cremated remains. I’ve had good service in the past, but this was my first experience with Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services. I cannot say HOW much I was impressed!! Beautiful, heartfelt memorials to my kitty. Very caring, compassionate keepsakes all around! I hate for anyone to go thru this heartbreak, but this company was exceptional!! Thank you for helping so much in this difficult time!! ❤️

So thankful for Yadkin Valley Funeral Services. They took such great care of me in my time of need- My baby Piper was only 3 years young & was so precious to me.
You can feel how much they care for you as soon as you walk through the door. They make sure your fur babies will be remembered in beautiful ways. Paw prints, clippings of fur, name plates and beautiful urns. Thank you Yadkin Valley Funeral Services

If I could give a higher rating, I would. While dealing with my Mom’s illness with hospice care, Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services made me feel like family from the first phone call. It was near the end of life for my mom’s cockapoo, sweet Emma Lou. As soon as I walked in the door, I felt peace, calmness, and comfort. Miss Emma was treated with dignity, love, and care, and it was as therapeutic for me to be there as it was for her. I had been under much stress with my mother’s illness and care, and the sweet spirit in the chapel, quiet time I was given to spend with Emma, and the warm presence of Ava made me feel at peace and gave me so much comfort. This is not the same experience I’d had in the past with typical vet offices when we’ve had other pets euthanized. I highly recommend this service.

03/06/2025 i ended up having to put my tobie to sleep and had him cremated. Yanking valley pet funeral services did an awesome job with him and it was easy and fast. They did little feet prints and got some of his fur for me and the cremation box is so adorable with his name plate. I would recommend them for sure.

I cannot begin to express my satisfaction with Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services. Our beloved 21 year old cat was cremated and we got her remains back with a wonderful bookmark that you can plant and have flowers grow in her memory, along with a keepsake of some of her fur and whiskers. They are wonderful and so very kind in the care they offer. I will treasure these keepsakes with her memory. Thank you.

Thank you for the care you took with my Snowball. She would have turned 20 in 2 weeks. This was my first experience with Aquamation . I am so thankful that my veterinarian recommended your services

After the decision to let my Delilah go to the rainbow bridge, I was comforted to know that she would be back in a week with me. Y'all handled her with care and dignity. Also made a plaster paw print and sent some of her hair to me also. It definitely made loosing her a little more bearable for me. She's home now and working on her shrine. Thank you for everything. I will definitely recommend to my friends if they should have the need for cremation of their beloved pets. Once again thank you so much.

Beautiful and thoughtful presentation. This exceeded our expectations and was such an honor to our beloved pet. Thank you so much!

Our beautiful Mama Cat and babies passed away .... these people where so patient and so kind to us and the little chapel was so beautiful I cried there for 2 hours over our little kitty
On her return everything was so lovingly packaged... the little bookmark ... had such a beautiful meaning to it I cried even more .... definitely deserved more than 5 stars 🌟

Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services did a beautiful job with our Penny. Included in the photo is a card from our vet, including some paw and nose prints they took as well. Just a class act from start to finish, and did not break the bank. I am so grateful for the dignity and integrity they demonstrated, making a very difficult time easier to bear. Thank you so very much!

My dog Buddy passed away January 19th, 2025. I Yadkin Valley Pet Funeral Services and I highly recommend them to anyone who has a special love for their pet 💕 I live on a fixed income and I found Yadkin Valley to be very affordable and my pet received the best care I could imagine ❤️ I am very grateful!!

My Sadie came home to me in the sweetest memorial. I was so upset that I didn't get a hair clipping but they provided one and even a paw a nose print. Thank you for taking such sweet care of my girl

This service is amazing. They made the passing of our Sneakers amazing ! Down to the little vile of hair and the envelope of his whiskers and fur, and the paw prints. Made this so wonderfull. Receiving his ashes to place back in his home was perfect❤️neither my husband or I could even think of burying him. This is so much better❤️❤️

We lost our precious cat Louis who lived to be 16. He was a core part of our home and lived inside with his brother Gilbert, 14. The quick turnaround, bringing our boy back to us quickly was wonderful. The beautiful urn, the paw prints, heart shaped holder with his fur, and all the extra touches were so comforting. Wonderful people taking care of animals that were family. We highly recommend this wonderful company in your time of sadness.

The most compassionate staff and owners. Ava was so wonderful and understanding. I loved the fact that you can customize the burial, plaques and services. If I could give more than 5 stars , I would.

Over the years, I have had different pest control services, but hands-down Yadkin Valley. Pest service is absolutely the best that I have ever had. Brodie is extremely thorough, covers all the bases, and makes sure that everything is the way it should be. If you are looking for a new pest control service, I can highly recommend Yadkin Valley pest service.

They done great. Beautiful wooden box with a name plate of her name. They also included some of her hair. I highly recommend

I was so pleased to have our Dusty back. I was disappointed that I did not ask for a paw print, but was very touched that I received one without asking. The sweet package of fur was a blessing to receive. Can’t wait till spring gets here and plant the wildflower blossom that I received. The wooden box was another unexpected gift. Again we thank you so much for thinking of all those wonderful touches that we’re done.❤️

Vadkin Valley Per Funeral Services went absolutely above and beyond. They helped us feel more at peace with everything they included in the bag with my sweet babies ashes. I would recommend anytime. We feel so blessed.

What a beautiful way for my Tiny girl to come cack home to me. So many things included to remember her. Thank you so very much for your compassion for me and my kitty and all furbabies. Your promt ..professional and compassionate service is appreciated.
