💙 A small note from us at Cherry Tree

As many of you will know, running a pet crematorium relies heavily on fuel and energy. With the current conflicts in the world, these costs have risen significantly.

However, we also understand that the rising cost of living is affecting many families.

For the time being, we are doing our very best to absorb these increased costs and keep our prices the same, so that we don’t add further pressure to families who sadly need our help.

Thank you for your continued support of our small family business. It truly means a great deal to all of us here at Cherry Tree. 🐾🌿

⭐ A review that truly means the world to us ⭐

Thank you so much for these kind words following the loss of beautiful Tiger. Reviews like this remind us why we do what we do.

At Cherry Tree we know that the days following the loss of a beloved pet can feel overwhelming and uncertain. Our aim is always to provide a calm, respectful and compassionate service, helping families through one of the hardest moments of pet ownership.

Every pet entrusted to us is treated with the same care and dignity we would give our own. From individual cremation, to the little personal touches like engraved urns and remembrance cards, we hope to bring a small amount of comfort during a very difficult time.

Thank you for trusting us with Tiger and for recommending Cherry Tree to others. It truly means a great deal to our whole team. ❤️

“Absolutely wonderful service from Cherry Tree, who were recommended to us by my sister. Everyone we spoke to (and then met), couldn't have been more respectful, understanding & friendly. I must also mention the speed of their service for our Tiger cat. The individual cremation service which is provided here means so much to pet owners like us, who are definitely at sixes & sevens in the first few days after a loss. We chose a wooden sleeping cat urn for our Tiger, & had no idea it would be personally engraved on the bottom of it. The card, with it's beautiful poem, was very much appreciated too. Thank you to all concerned, who made what could have been an even more heartbreaking experience, far more bearable for us all. We highly recommend Cherry Tree. Wonderful service.”

🌿 A gentle reminder 🐑🐾

Spring is slowly waking up around us here at Cherry Tree. The hedgerows are starting to show new life, the fields are greening, and sheep are lambing.

It’s one of the things we love most about being surrounded by the Kent countryside peaceful fields, wildlife, and animals going about their day.

We know many people enjoy walking their dogs in the countryside, and it’s wonderful to see dogs out enjoying the fresh air too. Just a small reminder that where livestock are grazing, it’s always safest to keep dogs on a lead. Even the most gentle dog can unintentionally scare sheep if they start running or chasing. 

A moment of excitement for a dog can cause real stress or injury to livestock, so keeping them close helps protect the animals, the farmers who care for them, and your dog as well.

Thank you to everyone who helps keep the countryside a safe and peaceful place for all animals.

✅ A difficult question pet owners rarely think to ask…

✅Where does my pet actually go for cremation?

The photo with this post is for illustrative purposes only, but it reflects a type of setup that does often exist within the pet cremation industry.

Across the UK there are now many pet cremation services advertising online. Some operate from purpose-built crematoria where owners can visit, see the surroundings, and understand exactly where their beloved companion will be cared for.

Others operate very differently.

Some are tucked away on farms, industrial yards, inside converted shipping containers, often places owners are not permitted to visit or see for themselves.

There is nothing automatically wrong with a simple facility.
But what matters is transparency.

When the time comes to say goodbye, most owners naturally assume their pet is going somewhere peaceful, respectful and dedicated to that purpose.

But the reality is many owners never see where their pet actually goes.

Before choosing a service, it is perfectly reasonable to ask:

• Can I visit the crematorium?
• Are there real photos of the buildings and surroundings?
• Is the location clearly shown and explained?
• Do the facilities reflect the care my pet deserves?

If a cremation service cannot show you where they operate, or does not allow visits, it is fair to ask why.

Your pet was part of your family.

At one of the most emotional moments in a pet owner’s life, peace of mind about their final journey matters more than ever.

Transparency, openness and trust should never be optional.

Because sometimes the difference between services is not just the price it’s what happens behind closed doors.

❤️ Sometimes a review captures exactly what Cherry Tree is all about.
A peaceful Kent countryside setting, a place where families can take a moment away from the outside world, and a team who care for every pet with compassion, patience and respect.
Thank you for your kind words about Maxine and the whole Cherry Tree family. 🐾

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We would like to say a very sincere thank you to all the staff at Cherry Tree, who took care of our beloved 15 year old doggie Laska.

We chose to drive her directly to Cherry Tree shortly after she passed. Then discovered upon arrival that the surroundings are absolutely perfect. Exactly Laska's favourite kind of Kent countryside setting.

We were welcomed by Maxine, who gently guided us through the process. Maxine is the most caring, compassionate, and warm hearted person. Our young Daughter was unfortunately overcome with grief at one point. Maxine stepped straight in and held her tight while we were struggling ourselves.

So we do want to say in particular a huge thank you to Maxine. Who clearly has a huge heart, and I'm sure was trying her hardest not to get upset herself.

We highly recommend Cherry Tree without hesitation. The staff are all clearly animal lovers, and they really do treat your pet as one of their own.

When the gate closes behind you as you drive up the driveway. You feel the privacy, the outside world is shut out for the time being. You realise how much you need that.

You get nothing but compassion, patience, respect, and a solemn understanding from the staff.

Thank you to all of you at Cherry Tree.

Today we put Mum’s bench back out after the long winter. ☀️

It sits overlooking the pond at Cherry tree, sunshine catching the water, with the fields beginning to wake up again. It might be slightly optimistic to say spring is here but today it certainly feels like it.

Dawn was such a big part of life at Cherry Tree. She spent many hours walking these grounds with her little Jack Russell, Luby Lu always appreciating the quiet beauty around her.

She is missed dearly as our Mum, our Granny, and as part of the heart of Cherry Tree. ❤️

✅ Equine Cremation, Behind the scenes at Cherry Tree. ✅

Many owners never see what happens behind the doors of a crematorium but at Cherry Tree, we believe you should feel completely confident about where your horse is being cared for.

Our facilities are purpose-built and run to standards you might expect from a human crematorium: clean, respectful, and entirely dedicated to individual care. Every horse entrusted to us receives an individual cremation only. We do not operate shared or batch cremations for horses, which gives many owners real peace of mind.

One thing that sets Cherry Tree apart is our openness. The veterinary surgeons we work alongside have unrestricted daily access to our crematorium. They see first-hand the standards, procedures and care we provide. That level of transparency is quite unprecedented within the industry and is something we are very proud of.

When the time comes to say goodbye to a horse, it’s often sudden and incredibly emotional. We always gently encourage owners to look into cremation options before they are needed. Knowing where your horse will be cared for, who will be handling them, and what standards are in place can make a very difficult time feel a little more certain and a little more comforting.

Cherry Tree is a small, independent, family-run crematorium trusted by vets and owners across Kent and the surrounding counties. Your horse will remain in our care here at Cherry tree, handled with dignity and respect from arrival through to the careful return of ashes.

If you ever wish to speak with us, visit, or simply understand your options for the future, you are always welcome to contact us.

As the day comes to a close and the evening quietens, many of us are sitting beside a pet who has been part of our lives for years.
For some families, tonight might be one of those difficult nights where you know a goodbye is coming soon.

At Cherry Tree Pet Crematorium, we want you to know that you are not alone when that time comes.
Every pet that comes into our care is treated with the same dignity, gentleness and respect we would want for our own. From the moment they arrive, they are looked after here at our family owned crematorium, never passed from place to place, always in safe and caring hands.

We are proud to be a small, independent crematorium trusted by so many families and veterinary practices across Kent. Owners are always welcome to speak directly with us, visit us, or simply ask questions so they feel completely reassured about where their beloved pet will be cared for.

Losing a pet is one of the hardest things we go through, but making the right choices for their final journey can bring real comfort.
If you ever need guidance, even just a quiet chat before the time comes, we are here.
