The Pet Cemetery of Tucson

About The Pet Cemetery of Tucson
The Pet Cemetery of Tucson, formally known as Petland Memorial Park, has been a cornerstone of pet aftercare in southern Arizona since its founding in 1986. It holds the distinction of being the only full-service pet cemetery, mortuary, and crematory in the state, and its four-acre grounds are situated near Ft. Lowell Park at the base of the Santa Catalina Mountains. The family-owned operation ensures that every cremation is handled by or directly supervised by a family member, using an on-site state-of-the-art cremator and specialized equipment.
The facility employs a small, carefully selected staff: Pet AfterCare Specialists receive weeks of dedicated training, and all crematory staff are nationally certified to operate the specialized equipment on-site. The cemetery offers a breadth of aftercare options uncommon in a single location — from traditional ground burial to cremation, private memorial viewings, and even a Garden of Memories where cremains can be scattered in a beautifully landscaped setting. Short-term climate-controlled holding is available for families who need time to make arrangements.

What to Expect
Families visiting The Pet Cemetery of Tucson will be guided by a Pet AfterCare Specialist who helps identify the options best suited to their beliefs and lifestyle. If you would like a private viewing before cremation, this must be scheduled at the time of arrival (not available same-day). Memorial services, which include a non-denominational blessing, memorial candles, and rosemary, require at least 24 hours' notice and are limited to 10 guests. Burial pricing begins at $210 for very small pets and typically runs $1,100 or more for cats and dogs, depending on casket, grave location, and memorial marker selections. Cremation options include private or group services at graduated pricing by weight, with witnessing of the private cremation start available for an additional fee.
