Treating pets with dignity and respect at all stages of their life, especially the difficult times by providing caring individual cremations.
(1680)
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.

Today we lit a candle by the Monkey Puzzle tree for my father Barry who would have been 91 today.
Dad - Happy Heavenly Birthday!
I miss you every day in so many ways. I’m grateful for the time we shared - thanks for everything you gave and taught me - for the determination (stubbornness!) you instilled in me along with the example you set me about always doing the right thing rather than just doing the easiest thing - a value that the Dignity team still follow today.
Love you Dad x

A time to pause and honour all who served, including the loyal animals who stood bravely by their side without a choice. 💜🐾
Our purple poppy is a simple way to remember their courage and love. You can find it on our online shop, with proceeds helping animals in need at The Blue Cross.
To love a pet is to open your heart completely. To every wag, purr and quiet moment shared.
When the time comes to say goodbye, that love doesn’t fade. It lingers, it comforts, and it reminds us that love always wins. 💙

For every pet we cremate at Dignity, we plant a tree in their memory. 🌱
It's just one of the ways that we are committed to looking after the planet. This month we are pleased to announce that we have planted 32,943 trees have now been planted on our behalf with Ecologi!
It seems to have been a busy day for the Dignity pets… because they’re all looking very sleepy! 🐾 From curled-up cats to snoozing dogs, our team’s pets clearly know the value of a good nap.
They bring us joy, comfort, and the occasional snore and we wouldn’t have it any other way. 💙

Dignity Pet Crematorium was started in 1992 by my parents, Barry & Carole Spurgeon.

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.
