Attended Pet Cremation Services
Notice: As of 20th March 2020 – to protect staff we have taken the decision to withdraw our attended cremation service for the time being. For people wanting to see their pet placed into our chamber we are offering a video of the service with two options;
Option 1. We will send you a video of your pet entering the chamber – you won’t see them inside the chamber but will hear us saying our committal.
Option 2. We will send you a video showing your pet both entering and inside the chamber as we say our committal. Due to the heat involved you may see some smoke and/or flame when they are inside the chamber so please think carefully before choosing this option.
The video will be sent to you via WhatsApp, Messenger or WeTransfer shortly after their cremation commences. The cost will be £50 instead of the usual £60 Attended Cremation Fee and you will still normally receive their ashes back later the same day. These videos are offered for personal use only and we ask that you do not share them publicly or on social media. Please contact us to confirm availability.

Attended Pet Cremation Services: For added peace of mind you can be present as your pet is gently placed into the chamber. This operates in combination with our Same Day Pet Cremation Service. You have the choice of saying goodbye to your pet in our Farewell Room before accompanying them to the cremation chamber. We will give you the choice of either watching as they are placed into the chamber or being present but without seeing them placed in. You can then either stay in the local area whilst your pet’s individual cremation takes place or remain in the Gardens at Dignity Pet Crematorium. We are able to provide you with an information pack on the local area if you wish to go for a walk along the canal or have something to eat or drink in one of the local villages whilst we look after them for you. Once their ashes has been prepared you can return to take them home with you later the same day (normally within 2 to 3 hours).
If you prefer we can collect your pet from your home or vet. You can then either come and say goodbye to them at Dignity then have the Attended Pet Cremation Service before taking their ashes home with you later the same day or, subject to availability, we will return their ashes to your home or vet the same day.
Alternatively, as we are very near to Winchfield Railway Station (which is on the main line to Waterloo) you have the option of bringing your pet to us on the train. We will transport you to and from the station and can also take you to the local village whilst their individual cremation occurs for a small additional charge if you wish.
Attended Pet Cremation Services are not normally available from 3pm onwards Mon – Fri or from 11am on Saturdays. These services do not operate on Sundays / Bank Holidays. Please contact us for further details.
PLEASE NOTE THE ATTENDED PET CREMATION SERVICE PRICE NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO OUR STANDARD INDIVIDUAL PET CREMATION CHARGES THAT CAN BE FOUND HERE.
Attended Cremation Service £60.00
If you do not wish to attend your pet’s individual cremation but would like their ashes back as soon as possible then please visit our Same Day Pet Cremation Service page where you can have their cremation prioritised.
