I have no words for how amazing the team have been towards my family losing our girl of 14 years, from beginning to end they were so kind, helpful and showed so much empathy.

Pawprints looked after myself and my family so well

Pawprints looked after myself and my family so well with the passing of our loved and very old greyhound. They went above and beyond and showed so much care and kindness towards us at such a heartbreaking time. It’s something myself and family will forever be grateful for. We received our Sams ashes in a gorgeous urn with his name engraved, clay paw print and cert. All sentients we will treasure! I can not recommend them enough. For care, customer service and over all service, they were fantastic!

FAQs

If you have a question you do not see below, please reach out and get in touch with us.

Why choose to cremate my pet?

Losing a beloved pet can be difficult. People may choose to cremate their pets for various reasons. Cremation can often provide a sense of closure and allows owners to honour their beloved companion in a dignified way. 

 

Cremation offers flexibility in memorialising your pet, as the ashes can be kept in a casket, scattered in a meaningful place, or used in memorial jewellery. 

 

Additionally, some people opt for cremation due to practical reasons such as limited space, as it eliminates the need for a burial plot. Ultimately, cremation offers a personalised and respectful way to say goodbye to a cherished family pet. 

What is an individualised cremation?
