About the Founder

My name is Michael Harris, Founder and President of Pet Passages^®. I am a third-generation licensed funeral home director and worked in my family’s funeral home for over 20 years. In 2008 when I suddenly lost my two best friends, Rottweilers Luke and Hannah, I searched extensively for compassionate pet funeral and cremation options that fit with what I was accustomed to at traditional funeral homes. Shockingly I never found what I was looking for, and even worse, I was constantly met with unprofessionalism and a serious lack of dignity and compassion for my beloved pets. Right then and there I made the decision to devote my life to creating a compassionate space and experience worthy of our pets—some of the most integral members of our families.

A business born out of something so personal and so important to me has set the company on a path to be an industry leader. You won’t find another operation like Pet Passages^® in any major cities across the US. This makes owning a Pet Passages^® franchise an incredible responsibility and an exciting opportunity on the frontier of something so desperately needed in our society.
