About Pet Cremation Services of AR, LLC

Pet Cremation Services of AR, LLC has been serving Arkansas families since May 1995, when founder Ken Creasy established the company after years working in an Arkansas animal shelter and seeing the need for compassionate, respectful pet aftercare. Marianne Sinclair joined Ken in 1997, bringing a BS in Animal Science and a Master's degree along with 20 years of experience in the animal welfare field. Their son Aaron joined in 2000 to manage cremation operations, and daughter-in-law Sorina — a former veterinary assistant with 17 years of experience — oversees office operations. The business is fully licensed and inspected by the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality, and follows a strict code of ethics in all handling and care of pets.

Based in Drasco, Arkansas, the company operates five licensed crematoriums and serves a wide service area across the state, coordinating primarily through veterinary clinics. Their Pet Memorial Acres provides a serene outdoor space where communal cremation remains are respectfully spread. The team is widely praised for going above and beyond — coming out on Sundays, holidays, and during ice storms — and for the personal touches included with returned remains, such as sweet poems and carefully packed urns.
