About Heartland Pet Cremation

Heartland Pet Cremation is a dedicated private cremation provider based in downtown St. Louis, Missouri, located near the historic Lafayette Square neighborhood at 2130 Papin Street. The company was built around a simple conviction — "We know that pets are family, too" — and every service is designed around that belief. Heartland distinguishes itself with fully transparent, all-inclusive pricing: private cremation for pets under 25 lbs. starts at $245, and over 25 lbs. at $345, with no hidden fees for after-hours, weekend, or holiday pickups.

Heartland serves the greater St. Louis metro, including Clayton, Ballwin, Central West End, O'Fallon, and Dutchtown South, as well as parts of eastern Illinois across the Mississippi River off I-70. Their service radius extends 50 miles from the St. Louis Arch for home and veterinary clinic pickups. A unique community commitment sets them apart: Heartland provides basic cremation services at no charge for police dogs and registered United States Service Dogs (USSDR).
