How It All Began
In 2009, Rick Harris Jr. lost his beloved Great Dane mix, Jessie. Devastated by the loss, he wanted to care for Jessie with the same love and respect he offered her in life - just as it would be for any one of their human family members.
As a concerned pet owner, Rick Harris Jr. felt he needed more information about the pet cremation process. Due to his background in funeral service, he knew the right questions to ask at the Vet Hospital. These questions consisted of:
Who will pick our dogs up for cremation?
When will our dogs be picked up?
What type of identification was in place to guarantee we would we receive only our pets' cremated remains?
How long would it take to receive our pets' cremated remains back?
To his surprise, the pet loss care available within Monroe County was very poor, unprofessional, and insensitive to his needs.
Something needed to be done!
Later that year, applying the same values of integrity, compassionate care & professionalism his grandfather used to form Paul W. Harris Funeral Home Inc. in 1946, Pets at Peace by Harris Funeral Home was founded and is still currently owned and operated by Rick Harris Jr.
Pets at Peace has become the most trusted pet cremation provider in Monroe County and surrounding areas.
