Cremation is a very clean and rapid method of reducing a loved one's remains.

In cremation, the pet is laid on the hearth of the preheated unit, and the door is shut. Cremation of an average-sized pet takes about 2 hours. When the process is complete, the remains (mainly bone pieces) are swept out, cooled, and put through an electric processor to reduce fragments to a uniform size.

Remains are placed in an urn of the owner's choice, and packaged for return. Each pet's remains from a private cremation are returned in a gift bag, wrapped in tissue, and include a card from Rest Assured.

Rest Assured is located just off of I-126E in Springfield, OR. We offer a comfortable reception area featuring our grief library and urn/keepsake selection.

We maintain an Open Door policy-- there is no area that clients or visitors can't see-- they are welcome at any stage of their pet's care. We are the only pet cremation service in Oregon with the required Department of Agriculture permit.

Our cremation unit is a top-of-the-line machine, manufactured by IEE, located in Florida. This is a human-quality unit with very high standards for emissions and concern for the environment.

Our equipment is state-of-the-art, and attention to detail is very important to us.
