HORSIA’s trained funeral professionals understand the genuine sadness that can be caused by the death of a loved one, especially an animal companion.

That’s why we offer families private whole body cremations and customized memorial services to help you say goodbye to your beloved companion in a respectful and dignified manner.

HORSIA offers funeral services for horses, ponies, and donkeys. The company’s focus was to provide a dignified and respectful solution for afterlife care following the passing of equines, just as we do in the human and pet funeral industry.

What Makes HORSIA Different

At HORSIA, we understand that your equine companion is more than just an animal you keep —they are important members of your families, and fill an irreplaceable role in our everyday lives. We provide only whole horse cremation with every horse being cremated alone using of our patented Pet Tracker 360® to guarantee that the cremains that are delivered to you are those of your beloved friend. Because our newly built equine cremation unit is on-site, we are able to provide same day services when requested. This means that bereaved owners can say goodbye in our private viewing room, and will receive the ashes on the same day of their horse’s passing. As a horse owner, you will have comfort knowing your companion will not be transported elsewhere for cremation or taken out back to a shed or garage. Our operation is a transparent complete end-to-end operation with 100% disclosure and located all under one roof.
