Respectful Individual Pet Cremation
The Individual Pet Cremation service at Chestnut Lodge Pet Crematorium and Pet Cemetery is carried out to standards that are second to none.
Your pet will be handled with care and respect from beginning to end (including collection either from your home or your vet). It will be just your pet in the cremation chamber and we will meticulously sweep out all the ash after the cremation has finished. This care in preserving all the ash is carried through all the preparation. You then have the choice of how you would like the ashes presented or to have them scattered or buried at Chestnut Lodge Pet Cemetery.
You may attend the cremation if you wish and see any part of the process. We work the same way whether you are with us or not and we guarantee never to betray the trust you place in us.

Respectful Formal and Green Burial
The Pet Cemetery was established in an area of ancient woodland in 1969. We have designed several options for you to have your pet buried within the Cemetery grounds.
You may choose a formal burial within a coffin in a plot marked by a headstone, plaque or full grave surround.
If you prefer a simpler burial then you may choose a green burial. Here your pet is wrapped in a shroud and buried in a plot marked by a shrub and a small tree stake plot marker. The green area will eventually form part of the woodland. There are formal or green plots for the burial of ashes or they may be scattered over the grounds of the Pet Cemetery.
You may visit your plot at any time. There is a small annual maintenance fee payable. This ensures the continuation of the Cemetery into the future.
Respectful Communal Pet Cremation
The Communal Pet Cremation Service is a dignified alternative to the Individual Cremation. Many of you do not want to have the ashes of your pet returned and, perhaps, do not want to think about what will happen to them. The Communal Pet Cremation Service gives your pet the courtesy of careful and respectful handling and an undisturbed final resting place. This sets it apart from other services that may bear the same name.
The handling of your pet is the same as the individual service. The only difference is that pets are cremated side by side and all the ashes placed into a grave in the Pet Cemetery here at Chestnut Lodge which you are welcome to come and see.

I cannot recommend Chesnut Lodge highly enough. Their care and compassion in handling my dog Lucy helped me to get through a very difficult time for me and my family. Thant you to all the staff who were involved in putting my Lucy to rest.
Thank you for the kindness and respectful way in which you dealt with my beloved cat, Sweet William’s cremation. The way in which his ashes were returned to me and the gentle words of condolence which accompanied them very much softened my grief. You showed great care and sympathy.
From the moment you came to our home to collect our beautiful golden boy, to when we were handed his ashes, we could not have chosen a better place to care for him. Thank you will never be enough. You were all so helpful, kind, respectful and caring. A special thank you to Kim, who made our golden retriever Dudley's, attended funeral so much easier to cope with. Everything that was going to happen was explained to us and we just felt we did the very best by our beautiful best boy. We love him and miss him so much, but you helped with the goodbye. Thank you once again Kim xx
