I want to create a pet-only cemetery.  Will enabling pets and de-enabling citizens accomplish this?

[PatrikLundell]

It should. Enabling pets causes pets to be buried, and enabling citizens to be buried causes them to be buried. I haven't bothered changing the defaults as I don't have many deaths in my fortresses, but I've seen both types buried (pets tend to die of old age, so there's the immigration ones plus cats).

I'm hoping to avoid a repeat of a prior fortress, in which the graveyard ended up clogged with pets, by separating dwarven burials from pet burials.  Unfortunately the issue cannot be avoided entirely, as some cat adoptions have recently occurred.  I do want to bury the pets, but not in the main crypt.

What about burying pets in a reanimating biome cemetery for a classic story reference?

[FortunaDraken]

You can definitely create a pet cemetery, I've done so before in order to avoid my dwarves running across the decaying corpse of a pet.
