Treating pets with dignity and respect at all stages of their life, especially the difficult times by providing caring individual cremations.
(1679)
Dignity Pet Crematorium was started in 1992 by Barry & Carole Spurgeon. Our aim is to make the passing of a much loved pet easier to cope with through our caring and respectful individual pet cremation service. We are very different to the weekly pet cremation services often offered through veterinary surgeries and try to give each pet the send off that they deserve.

💙 At Dignity, giving back is part of who we are, because we see every day how love, kindness and community can help people through life’s most difficult moments.
From our Charity Well, to memorial plaques along our Remembrance Walkway, and our annual charity bauble campaign, we’re proud to support causes that make a real difference to those who need it most.
Today is Red Nose Day, raising vital funds for people facing hardship across the UK and beyond.
Many families tell us that honouring their pet’s memory through kindness brings a small sense of comfort — a way for love to continue making an impact.
Will you be watching tonight?

We don’t often talk about pricing, but we believe in being open.
Due to ongoing global events, the cost of fuel used in the cremation process has increased significantly. We’ve absorbed these increases for as long as we can.
From Friday, we’ll be introducing a small temporary fuel surcharge, ranging from £3 to £12 depending on the size of the pet.
We are reviewing fuel costs weekly and will reduce or remove this as soon as we can.
We will always do the right thing, be open about our pricing, and continue to give every pet the care and dignity they deserve.

The sunshine is slowly returning, and with it, gentle moments like these. Ollie enjoying a peaceful spring walk by our remembrance trees. 🌿☀️
As the seasons change, the love we hold for those we’ve lost continues to grow quietly in our hearts. Our remembrance trees stand as a living tribute, a place where memories can blossom year after year.
If you would like to honour your pet with a lasting tribute, you can order a personalised leaf to be placed among the branches.
Happy Mother’s Day Mum - I miss you every day and wish we could have had more time together ❤️🙏🏼
For those of you wondering about the song choice it’s by The Osmond’s and there’s a story behind it…
Mum was driving us back from seeing my Grandfather at Basingstoke hospital (he sadly also suffered from Alzheimer’s at the end). We were cheering ourselves up by all singing along to an Osmond’s cassette tape when a police officer signalled to mum to pull over. She was a careful driver and cheerily said hello to the officer. Her face changed when he asked her “do you know what speed you were doing madam?”. She’d been doing 33 I think and hadn’t realised she’d entered the 30 limit from the 40 zone. As someone who always drove well under the limit she was mortified but saw the funny side afterwards and the family always remember Mum when an Osmond’s song plays 🎶 ☺️ 😬

To all the pet mums,
Today we see you, we honour you, and we hold space for every kind of love you carry.
Whether your days are filled with muddy paws and wagging tails, quiet memories and gentle longing, or a mix of both… the bond you share is forever part of your story.
Love doesn’t end when their footsteps fade. It simply changes shape, living on in the care you gave, the comfort you shared, and the memories you still hold close.
Today, we’re sending warmth to every pet mum — those with their companions beside them, and those carrying them in their hearts.
You are, and always will be, their whole world.

Taking a leap for a cause close to our hearts 💙
In May, Meghan, Chloe and Emma will be abseiling down Spinnaker Tower to raise money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People — a charity that provides life-changing companionship and independence through specially trained dogs.
Every day at Dignity, we see just how powerful the bond between people and animals can be. This challenge is our way of giving back and supporting others who rely on that same connection.
If you would like to support us, we would be so grateful for any donation, big or small.
Thank you for cheering us on — it truly means so much

Dignity Pet Crematorium was started in 1992 by my parents, Barry & Carole Spurgeon. Our aim is to make the passing of a much loved pet easier to cope with through our caring and respectful individual pet cremation service. We are very different to the weekly pet cremation services often offered through veterinary surgeries and promise to give each pet the loving send off that they deserve.
I’ve explained a bit more about us below. For more information just visit our main website www.dignitypetcrem.co.uk or call us on 01252 844572 to talk through your wishes. We also have a Live Chat feature on our website or you can send us a message via Facebook if you are finding it too difficult to speak to someone over the phone.

Our service is simple. We will look after your pet, however large or small, on their own and you will receive only their ashes back after a genuine individual cremation or you can choose to have them scattered in our beautiful gardens alongside both other pets and their human guardians.
You can choose to personalise their send off however you want. More and more people are choosing to bring their pet to us for a Same Day or Attended cremation service, where you can say a last goodbye before waiting in our gardens or the local area before returning home with their ashes later the same day. Alternatively we can collect your pet from your home or vet in one of our pet hearses. Either way they will be looked after by us with the respect they deserve.
Please take time to read our reviews both on Facebook and on the review site Freeindex. We hope that these reviews by “real” people will give you complete peace of mind about how we will care for your pet. If you can it is far better to plan ahead as you can be swept along by events and may be rushed into making a hasty decision. Doing your research before the final day will give you a better understanding of the less scrupulous practices and lead you to make an informed decision that is the right one for you.
Losing a pet is devastating (to put it mildly) and we are also there to help you cope with your loss. We can be there for you as a shoulder to lean on and have access to fully trained pet bereavement counsellors to help you in your grief.
