Regency and Pet Rest Incorporated Announce New Partnership

FT WAYNE, IN / AGILITYPR.NEWS / November 15, 2021 / Regency Pet LLC, the leading U.S. pet aftercare services provider, today announced its new partnership with Pet Rest Inc, in Indiana.

 

Located in Ossian, a suburb of Ft. Wayne, the partnership encompasses Pet Rest Inc. Cremation Services, Pet Rest Equine, Pet Rest Aquamation, and the Pet Rest Cemetery (including The Gardens and Mausoleum). This new partnership will expand Regency’s rural presence as well as its delivery and leadership across the country, with providers in the Northeast, South, Central and Western United States.

 

“We are thrilled to now have a presence in Indiana that begins with Pet Rest Inc.,” says Scott Buttz, president at Regency. “The company’s commitment to building a premium brand aligns with Regency’s vision to bring together the most highly respected family-owned businesses in the U.S. and support them with a focus on innovation and compassionate care. The Gerber, Reinhard and Tonner families are monuments of compassionate, ethical, and trusting care in our industry.”

 

Founded in 1984 by Leon E. Gerber, a “gentleman farmer” from Wells County, Indiana, Pet Rest Inc., has continued to meet the needs of pet owners in and around Ossian for more than 37 years. In 2012, Gerber turned the family-owned and operated business over to his niece and three nephews, who continue to follow his mission to provide ethical, honest, and caring pet cremation and burial services for beloved pets.

 

"We are happy to have this opportunity to partner with Regency, knowing they will maintain the same passion and level of care that our veterinary community and pet families have come to count on,” says Kris Reinhard, co-owner of Pet Rest Inc. “It has been a privilege to provide the most respectful and compassionate care to pets, and we look forward to continuing this journey with Regency.”

 

Over the past 15 months, Regency has completed 22 acquisitions. The company now has a total of 42 locations nationwide committed to providing compassionate care for well over half a million families.
