After years of research, planning, and budgeting, Historic Congressional Cemetery is pleased to offer a new section for pets called Kingdom of Animals.

Appropriately located across from the popular “Doggie Day Spa,” where a natural spring comes above ground, the dedicated new section offer communal and individual pet sites for the inurnment of cremated remains. The first and only of its kind in Washington, DC, it is defined by a solid wood fence along the rear forest and a low, curved wrought iron fence with two gates for access.

We are available to assist anyone interested in purchasing a site. Please call the Gatehouse at 202-543-0539. Please be aware site sales are booking two months in advance at this time.

Please see the attached brochure for information on types of burials and pricing for the Kingdom of Animals, effective May 1, 2023.
