Absolutely a wonderful place for pet cremation. Gave me a peace of mind for my Josie and Bella whom were euthanized two weeks apart. Katie was absolutely absolutely wonderful. So thank you Pawsitive Memmories ♥️
Emily Majewski
I cannot say enough wonderful things.We were treated so very kindly from initial contact all the way through pick up. Katie went above and beyond to make our last moments with our cat special. Loved that only one family was there at a time. Office was beautiful and quiet. At pick up I expected just to stop and get the urn at the scheduled time. The staff had a thoughtful card, paw prints, and a candle lit by the urn. Katie helped pack everything up for us to take home. Five star experience during a very difficult time.

Great experience here today, I lost my bearded dragon, Chunk, very suddenly. John was understanding and kind, he somehow knew exactly what we needed during this incredibly difficult time. We were able to bring her in that day by appointment. The business is small but welcoming and calming. We are waiting up to 8 days for her ashes, which is typical. I completely trust this company to take care of Chunk and will be coming back when I need them in the future. Highly recommend, lovely staff.

Alexandria Bolduc
We recently used Pawsitive for our dogs cremation. They were very compassionate and thoughtful with his remains. We are forever grateful. We highly recommend using them.
Cori DiPietro
We appreciated the team at Pawsitive Memories for the assistance and kindness they offered as we navigated the final care of our beloved dog. Losing a family pet is a heartbreaking event and they respected our grief and our boy’s remains. I also appreciate their method of aqua cremation as it is a more efficient and greener method of cremation.
Michelle Constantine
My dear, sweet, talkative, feathered family member Nick passed away on May 10. Usually, when their time came, I would take our pet to our vet. After being together for 22 years, I felt he deserved to be honored. So I was searching for places that were different than just taking him to the vet and I came across Pawsitive Memories. They provide Aquamation. It’s a gentle, eco-friendly option. I thought what a wonderful thing, and right here on the Cape in Sandwich. I gave them a call and spoke with Katie. She is incredibly kind and compassionate. I made an appointment to drop Nick off and we talked about Nick, and about what I wanted. I asked for some feathers in a glass bottle, Nick had beautiful feathers. I ordered a lovely little keepsake urn for his remains. Katie said he would be finished in 7 to 10 days. When I went to pick his remains up, I walked in to see the most beautiful tribute to my sweet Nick. Katie had lit a candle, and had his urn and his glass bottle with feathers on a white cloth on a table displayed beautifully. I honestly have never seen such a lovely tribute to a pet. I could not thank Katie enough! I will remember the experience always. What a blessing it was to have found Pawsitive Memories and Katie.
Rene Lessard-Reiss

Katie and the employees donated their time and resources to cremate our baby boy who passed away way too early and in a traumatizing way. Dr.Kennedy directed us towards them, and what a beautiful job they have done. We will forever be grateful for your support!Extremely kind people ❤️
Lady T
I gave pawsitive memories 5 stars I really would loved to give 10 if was possible ‼️ Katie made sure our beloved Mr Bentley was handled with absolute care and you can't help but sense the compassion she has for the grieving families. My family was great full of the time and patience and attention we received. I would recommend any family that is dealing with the loss of their loved one ( pet ) to utilize pawsitive memories services. Katie made our experience PAWSITIVELY AWESOME ‼️ There is absolutely not enough thank you's I can give,, thanks SOOOOO very much,, for what you all do..
Patricia Mydlack
We lost our beloved family member Nugget 3 weeks ago. We read about the Pawsitive Memories service in Sandwich and brought him there. Erik was so thoughtful and kind it made a horrible situation bearable. We have retrieved his ashes, a paw print we had done and a touchstone we had made with his ashes inside, beautiful. We can’t thank you enough Erik.
Ciara Gregoli
They were so very respectful, caring, and so attentive. I will only bring my animals here for the rest of my life. Again, the respect they gave to my cat was truly so important to the healing process.
Kimberly Curtin
Saying goodbye to our 14 year old Maltese, Gemma, was incredibly difficult and overwhelming. We feel grateful to have been referred to Pawsitive Memories by our veterinarian in the midst of our grief, while grappling with end of life decisions for our precious pup. We are thankful to Erik for providing aquamation as a gentler alternative to the traditional methods of cremation. When we arrived to pick up Gemma's ashes, Erik had created a very calm and peaceful environment where a beautiful tribute honoring Gemma's life was on display. We will be forever grateful to Pawsitive Memories' compassionate services as our sweet Gemma crossed over the Rainbow Bridge.
Lindsay West
Lindsay Lemire West- I lost my dog three weeks ago one of the hardest times of my life. When you’re grieving the last thing you want is to have a hard time with whatever process you choose for your dog. My experience with this company was amazing. They mostly dealt with my mom but my items were so beautiful and special. I even received a hand written card. Thank you for letting me smile during this hard time. Thank you for caring for my beloved Paddington bear.

Angela Gil
Would give more stars if possible for Erik’s sensitivity, professionalism and excellent communication/followups.I started communicating with Erik well in advance of my pup’s passing, which helped cut through a bit of paperwork in advance.When the time came, everything was flawless. Erik was so thoughtful and considerate. My other pup was allowed to enter the room where we said our final goodbyes—a very serene, tastefully decorated family viewing area.Every interaction was seamless and responsive. Will definitely recommend Pawsitive Memories to as many people as possible. Love their methods and background. Second to none in terms of customer caring.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We highly recommend Pawsitive Memories for your pets cremation. They are very professional and compassionate. It is nice to have an eco-friendly cremation option on Cape Cod. Thank you.
Sharon Foster
Erik & John were very professional & compassionate during a very emotional time for me in the loss of my girl, Josie. When I went to pick her ashes up they had a beautiful memorial set up for her. They truly care and couldn't have made the process any easier. I would highly recommend them! Thank you both from the bottom of my heart! <3
Katie Knotts
Pet cremation is a service you don’t look forward to needing to use. But for when that time comes, I’m so thankful that people like Erik exist. In conversations over the phone, in person, and via email he constantly conveyed a genuine sense compassion, sympathy, and comfort. He was endlessly patient and flexible. He has created a beautiful, calming space at Pawsitive Memories for people to say goodbye to their loved ones. I can’t say enough good things about how great Erik was during such a difficult time.
Julie Goulart
We lost our beloved Mini on 12/15/22- we used another pet cremation place for our other animals but a friend told me about Pawsative Memories and I am SO grateful she did.Erik ( owner) was so comforting, his space is so peaceful, and I felt secure in having him care for my precious girl. The fact I am a born & raised Cape Codder and spent so many days walking my girl on beaches and woods of the Cape made me feel so good about the entire process. Thank-you Erik...for your top notch care of both of us! We are so blessed to have such a great place in our time of need.Julie & Don Goulart
Glenn Harper
Timely and sensitive service.Easy to arrange and hand me Ed with great empathy.
Kelly W.
I am thankful to Pawsitive Memories for providing a calming space to say goodbye to my best friend, Sadie. During an incredibly difficult time, Erik’s gentle nature and kindness made me feel at ease, and I knew I was leaving my girl in good care. Thank you for providing this service with the utmost respect and understanding.
Dave D
They helped up through a very hard situation. Erik and John are so professional and comforting. Really the best. I can't thank you enough for helping someone that's never been through the process. Thank you for treating our animal with the respect she deserved.
Cynthia McDowell
After losing our beloved dog, Maggie, we found Pawsitive Memories on line. In dealing with the owner, Erik Tarvin, we found him to be extremely kind, caring and compassionate. We would highly recommend Pawsitive Memories during this difficult time in the loss of your pet.
W THOMAS LAVASH
Our beloved kitty, Mabel, passed on November 6, 2021, three weeks shy of her 14th birthday. When I made that dreaded call to inquire about Pawsitive Memories' services, Erik could not have been more sensitive and reassuring. He arrived at our home in Truro promptly as scheduled, and ever-so-gently and quietly cradled our little girl in her favorite blanket. He kept us well-informed through the process (very sadly, a process we've been through multiples times over the years) and offered to personally return her cremains. He was compassionate and kind and handled Mabel with the utmost care and dignity. He even washed and returned her blanket.Erik's gentle soul is a gift to all who have ever lost a beloved pet. We recommend Erik and Pawsitive Memories without reservation. When that terribly sad day comes again, we will call on him to ease our heartbreak.
Heather Richardson
The Owner is extremely kind and respectful to your needs and the loss of your Pet. After you arrive, inside it's quiet and clean. They have a sitting area with privacy available for you to go over how their service works and what it entails. Overall I was relieved and comforted by the compassion & empathy they show you at Pawsitive Memories. I highly recommend them. I felt like I was walking into an actual funeral home and wake for my furry loved one. It helped bring closure and I'm forever grateful for their services. Especially having something that is on Cape and the added benefit of being Eco Friendly.
Jules Stark
10/10 Death of a loved one, four-legged or otherwise, is always immensely difficult and painful. Erik is an amazingly compassionate soul who made a very rough time in our family's lives so much easier to get through. Thank you so much for helping us through the loss of our sweet cat Salem.
Luey POST
It's taken me a little time to be able to write about the passing of our papillion termie. Sadly he left us while we were in the middle of our family trip to the cape and we were left with the difficult task of managing our grief while trying to locate a crematorium so far from home. Fortunately pawsitive memories by coincidence was 7 min away from where we were staying and chose to take our little friend to Erik where he greeted us with such great empathy and it made saying goodbye a much more peaceful process. Erik guided us through this time making sure to explain how much gentler and humane his liquid creamation would be for our beloved dog. His demeanor and entire presences brought us calm during this turbulent time and we felt better that our sweet dog would in the caring hands of a kind man. He was able to later mail our dog's ashes once we returned home. It was honestly the best way all of this could have happened. Thank you again erik ,
Jessica Zamora
Due to last minute schedule conflicts and traffic we couldn’t make it to our appointment, but Erik treated me with such kindness and compassion during everything leading up to our appointment. I felt that this business deserved a 5 star review simply based on the professionalism and empathy I experienced. I will absolutely be using these services in the future when needed. I think this is such a wonderful way to honor your fur babies when they pass and I’m thankful this place exists.

Olesia Adams
Incredibly grateful for kind, thoughtful service provided to us as we were coping with the loss of our beloved cat Felix! Erik’s respect, care and patience from the moment we called to a lovely tribute when we picked up the urn helped so much to go through this.
Kristina S
10/26 i lost my baby mittens. It by far was the worst day of my life! 19 year's we were together, no more than 2 weeks apart at a time. She was my best friend! I wasn't sure how I was going to be able to handle her passing as the days got closer and closer. Erik answered every question i had even if it was ridiculous (in my eye's). he was so comforting and reassuring about the whole process.This is the place to go if you know you are going to lose or lost a beloved pet. I couldn't imagine going anywhere else in the future if i ever go through this again down the road. Even when i emailed him the next day after dropping her off about a last minute request, he made it happen! And i will forever be grateful for everything he did.
Celeste Kilday
Knowing that Erik was the person I was handing my ride or die over to made it so comforting. I don't know what the word is to explain how I felt after meeting Erik and knowing what the process for my Ziggy would be. There are some people who do what they do to earn a living. That appears to be a side note for this business and this owner. Bless your gentle nature, your kindness and compassion Erik. I will remember this always whenever I think about my boy Zig.
Randi Lynn Contravo
I had to put down my pet rat down about a week ago. It was the first pet that was actually mine that I had to make that difficult decision with. I found Pawsitive Memories on google and spoke to Eric. You can tell he genuinely cares about your pets and is very passionate about his job. I seriously highly recommend this place.
Monica Petersen
The atmosphere is lovely & calm, and Eric is so kind. We highly recommend Pawsitive memories,
