Rose Cremation Services located in the city of Bellflower, exists to offer a more compassionate approach to cremation services, “We are a full service, family-owned funeral home providing services to Los Angeles County, Orange County and all Southern California,” says co-owner Christal Vargas Leyva, “Our business philosophy is to offer a sensitive death care option combined with personal service and reasonable pricing.”
“We assist families in creating meaningful and memorable ways to celebrate a loved one’s life,” says Leyva, “but we have gone one step further, we now offer the same services for the loss of a four-legged furry family member.”
From the heart-wrenching moment when it becomes clear that a beloved pet has limited days, Rose Cremation can gently guide the family through all the arrangements that must be made.
“We offer the cremation services, we immortalize paw prints in a keepsake plaster disc, deliver the pet in a special urn as well as a death certificate to the owner,” adds Leyva.
Offering the same kindness and services that are needed for human families, transportation of the pet from the veterinarian to the crematory, holding a memorial service, or assisting in finding a burial spot is offered in a complete arranged package. “We do everything for the owner because our pets are part of the family,” notes Leyva.

Working alongside Pet Haven Cemetery and Crematory, there is the option of offering aquamations, which uses water flow, temperature, and alkalinity to conduct a natural decomposition. The process results in a clean, pure sand-like appearance that holds the cherished memories of pets. Rose Cremation also offers the pet owner other options to memorialize their fur baby.
The ashes can be saved in jewelry, a specially shaped urn, or by creating a stuffed animal in the pets’ likeness, with a special pouch for the ashes.
Pet haven was founded in the city of Gardena in 1948. Over 30,000 pets are ‘at rest’ in their burial grounds. The land is dedicated to the state of California so it will forever remain a cemetery.
The loss of a beloved pet is never easy to deal with, especially when it’s unexpected. Even though this is one of the most difficult moments you will endure, understanding the importance a pet plays in our lives, is the principal mission of Rose Cremation and with quality care, integrity, and attention to detail, they can help you pay proper respect to the pet who has served you and your family.
