Faithful Friends
Pet Cremation
Treating Your Pets Like Our Own
About Us
Faithful Friends is a family-owned business operated by Carolyn Hodges, her daughter, Rachel Dowling,
and cremator Damon LeBlanc. Carolyn, Rachel, and Damon are lifelong pet lovers and multiple pet owners.
After living and working in Pasco county for several years, Carolyn realized the need for a local pet cremation service. She combined her experience in the funeral industry with her love for animals to create Faithful Friends.


In her neighborhood and around the community, Carolyn is known for rescuing stray animals.
She nurtures them back to good health and then finds them a loving home. All that is, except for Honey, a lab-mix stray she found with 3 puppies. The puppies were all adopted, but Honey made the Hodges' residence her home.
She joined the Yorkies already calling it home, Micah, Mariah, and Tyson ("Munch"). Carolyn also has a cockatiel named Sunny that travels between the office and her home.

As the saying goes, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Rachel and Damon are active in rescuing strays and have 5 pets. Their family includes two cocker spaniels, Jackson and Diamond, two cats, Colby and Casey, and a rescued red-eared slider turtle named Leo. Damon and Rachel are engaged and plan to marry in Fall 2010.
In addition, the Faithful Friends office is home to Tinker and Sophie, two cats rescued from the surrounding neighborhood. The two of them have the rule of the place, and love for visitors to stop by and play with them.
Please stop by anytime to visit the cats, Sunny, Carolyn, Rachel, and Damon!

We are sad to report that Andy is lost. He got out one day when a serviceman left our door open and we haven't been able to find him.
If you see Andy, please call us. Carolyn is heart-broken!
