Cremation services
Individual cremation with ashes returned
Your pet will be individually cremated, giving you peace of mind that your pets ashes will be returned to you.
All ashes are returned as standard in a bronze shaded biodegradable urn or wooden casket or scatter tube. The urn or casket will be wrapped in tissue paper before being placed in discreet packaging, alongside a spray of flowers. An engraved nameplate and certificate, detailing month and year of cremation is included.
A range of caskets, urns and memorials are available upon request, price on application.
Individual cremation with ashes scattered
Your pet will be individually cremated, and their ashes scattered in our Garden of Remembrance. We will invite pet owners to scatter their pet’s ashes, should they wish.
Cremation with other pets
We offer a cremation service for owners who choose not to have an individual cremation. In this case, your pet will join others to be cremated together. Instead of being returned, ashes are buried in our grounds looking out towards the Pennines.
Burial services
Our Nature Cemetery offers a permanent, quiet, and dignified resting place, with our well-tended gardens offering a haven for you and your pet.
All burial services include a basic coffin and small approved headstone or shrub or tree in accordance with the burial grounds being designated as a ‘nature’ cemetery. A range of coffins are available upon request, price on application.
An annual maintenance fee is applicable for your plot, payable at the beginning of each year following the burial.
With prior notice, Paws to Rest are more than happy for bereaved owners to return to their pets grave as many times as they wish.
Other services
Same day cremation service*
Your pet will be cremated with ashes returned on the same day. If you bring your pet to us and care to wait, our Garden of Remembrance offers a tranquil setting whilst your beloved pet completes their final journey.
If you prefer, your pet can be collected from your home or vet, and ashes return the same day.
Euthanasia in our Farewell Room
Partnering with a qualified vet, we specialise in gentle, compassionate on-site euthanasia offering a compassionate way to say goodbye. Please contact us for details.
