BURIAL ARRANGEMENTS
People bury people because they Have to. People bury pets because they Want to.
Cedar Hills Pet Cemetery has been serving the Cape Girardeau and surrounding area communities since 1990. We offer three burial packages, but want to emphasize that we are willing to change our packages to accommodate personal requests. Our beautiful 1.3 acre pet cemetery has been deeded in such a way as to protect the pets buried there forever. Consequently, you may maintain peace of mind knowing that your pet will never be disturbed by anything other than the forces of nature. If you find yourself in need of our services immediately, or would simply like to discuss future need, please know that we are here to help.
Gold Package Premium Burial--includes local pickup from your home or veterinarian's office, silk floral piece, and a standard burial shell pet casket. The standard burial shell casket may be upgraded to one of our more lavish pet caskets for an additional fee. (Please note that due to our casket sizes, the Premium Burial for Very Small Pets does not include a casket).
Premium Sites--These sites are located in the front half and most desirable areas of the pet cemetery and are to be used with pet caskets. Premium sites may be decorated with landscaping rock, borders, and large markers. No trees or shrubs without written permission by Cedar Hills Pet Cemetery.
Silver Package Economy Burial--includes local pickup from your home or veterinarian's office and a wooden marker with small silk flower arrangement. Caskets are optional and may be added to the burial price at the client's request.
Economy Sites--These sites are located in the back half of the cemetery and may be decorated with flowers and small markers only. No landscaping rock or borders.
Common Burial--includes local pickup. Common Burials are located throughout the property in less desirable areas chosen by Cedar Hills and are generally done only twice a month. These sites are left unmarked. No permanent markers or caskets. please call or email for more details.
With the exception of common burials, you are more than welcome to choose your own gravesite location based on availability. In addition, you are welcome to be present during your pet's burial. Pet's may be buried with their toys and bedding if desired. Please don't hesitate to ask about personalizing your pet's burial.

Payment: All fees must be paid before burial. We accept local checks and credit cards. Non-payment will result in legal action and/or removal of your pet after 1 year of non-payment!
Pre-Arrangements: By making arrangements for your pet in advance, you know with confidence that when that day comes, everything will be handled in a loving manner with just a phone call from you or your veterinarian. You may reserve your pet's burial site, choose a casket at this year's price and be assured that it will be in stock when it is needed. You may also begin thinking about a marker.
Markers and Maintenance: It is the pet owner's responsibility to clearly mark their pet's premium or economy gravesite permanently if desired. Cedar Hills Pet Cemetery will, to the best of its ability, mark each new gravesite with a wooden cross for up to one year. In addition, Cedar Hills will maintain the cemetery grounds by mowing the grounds at least every two weeks, removing weeds from premium gravesites, removing flowers and temporary markers when they become worn, and by maintaining an accurate plot map of all gravesties for future reference. |
