Aftercare Services
The grief you feel on the day you lose your pet can be overwhelming. Which is why it is often best to have someone else worry about the arrangements for afterwards.
Pet Cremation
The cremation itself will happen at our highly accredited Chapel of Rest. The staff there understand what you are going through and will always gently guide you through the process when you choose to attend.
You can choose to be present or to let us carefully handle things as you prefer. When you select individual cremation we can then return the ashes to you at a convenient time, or if you wish, spread them in the grounds of our peaceful Chapel of Rest.
How Pet Cremation Happens
We understand if you do not want to know the exact details. In this case, feel free to skip to the next section. Do bear in mind though that official recording of your service will include:
- A personal identification
- The time that cremation begins and finishes
- The number of the specific chamber used
- Details of the name of the caring professional who will be handling proceedings
The actual cremation process will end with the ashes being collected, cooled and then passed through a cremulator. This creates a fine ash. You can choose whether we will return this to you or spread the ashes in the grounds of our Chapel of Rest.
Your Dog Cremation Service – Which Is Best?
You will always want to choose the pet cremation option which feels right to you. We offer both communal and individual services. The main reasons people choose one or the other often comes down to whether they think their pet would prefer some company, whether they want to recover the ashes, or even dog cremation costs.
Individual Pet Cremation
The individual pet cremation option allows us to collect the ashes from the single chamber afterwards knowing that it all belongs to your pet. You can then collect the ashes for spreading in a favoured place or allow us spread them for you, if you so wish.
Communal Pet Cremation
Communal pet cremation involves your pet and a small number of others. The ash cannot be separated at the end but is instead spread in the calming grounds of our Chapel of Rest. You can attend personally if you wish.

What To Do Once It Is Over
We are animal lovers and we have lost pets ourselves. Grief counselling can be beneficial for many people and we have strong ties with local bereavement counsellors should you feel you need their services, the grief of losing a loved pet should not be underestimated.
We also maintain our memorials wall. This is also a great way to deal with the loss of you loved pet.
