When the time comes for our beloved pets to cross that rainbow bridge, it is something we never want to think about, but at some point in their lives this time sadly comes.
Once our time in this world is done, our souls pass on whilst our body’s remain on this Earth. Our pets cannot tell us what kind of send off they would prefer, it’s down to us to make that choice.
It’s important we know the services that are available to us so we can make the right choices for ourselves before the day comes and we possibly make the wrong ones out of grief and hurt.
Whilst many choose for their veterinary surgery to make arrangements for their pets body, we have discovered there are private pet crematoriums who offer a true 121 service and guarantee that your pet is cremated solo. These services are averagely carried out within 24 hours which also means you can begin grieving for your pet without waiting weeks to have their ashes returned to you.
We can now offer a package where we make all the arrangements and provide the transport for your pet, taking the stress and worry out of your pets passing.
Our packages include:
🐾 Booking of the private crematorium
🐾 Collection & transportation of your pet from home or your veterinary practice
🐾 Personal delivery of your pets ashes in a scatter tube once the cremation has taken place. We aim to have your pets ashes back with you within 24-48 hours but this may be delayed due to weekends and bank holidays or we may be able to offer same day service in some circumstances.
🐾 Personal touches such as locks of hair, separate packets of ashes for keep sake jewellery are included
🐾 Caskets & personalised boxes are available at additional costs.
Our fees include, cost of cremation paid to the crematorium, our standard handling & transport fee of deceased pet and service charge for our funeral service.
For more information on this service please don’t hesitate to contact us.

" We contacted Big Paws Little Paws as our beloved dog, Max, needed safe and comfortable transport to the vet one last time. We've had a horrible few weeks facing complication after complication with Max's health, but contacting Big Paws Little Paws was a sound decision. Gareth was available to bring him to the vet, no problem, and enquired if we had considered "what next?" after Max's suffering had ended. I had a couple of phone numbers, but nothing was set in stone yet. Gareth was able to get everything set up for us - transport to the vet, transport to the crematorium, any special requests, trinkets, etc and transport back home to us. It has made this difficult journey a little less stressful to be able to delegate so much of the arrangements to Big Paws Little Paws. Thank you again. I hope it's awhile before we need your services again, but I will definitely recommend you to anyone that might be needing pet transport or more."
"Just over a couple of weeks ago my best mate Marley a 13 year old Springer had to be put to sleep, I contacted this company and spoke to Gareth, initially to book the pet ambulance to take Marley to the crematorium, after talking to Gareth I decided I would use Gareth , he came to my house and took Marley in his ambulance, sorted the cremation out and returned his ashes . At a time when I was absolutely in bits , Gareth was absolutely amazing, I can’t thank him and his company enough, I really can’t , So in your time of need , sadly it will come, give them a ring, you will be amazed at their tentative/professional service as was I , again a MASSIVE THANK YOU"
"Highly recommend this service. Gareth went above and beyond to make sure my dog travelled with respect & dignity. After unfortunately loosing my dog Gareth has made several amounts of contact to let me know how everything was going and how I was. Couldn't recommend a better person. Thank you."
"Gareth went above & beyond to help us at 1 of the worst times of are life's. Our beautiful boy Buster took a turn for the worst on the 1st of july at 5.30 in the morning & we had no way to get our boy to the vets & I rung up Gareth & he helped us in our hour of need & he took my partner & Buster to the vets & stayed with them both till the very end & he took buster to cremate him & he kept us informed every step of the way & Gareth bought are boy home today. I can't thank Gareth enough for all that he's done for us. We really appreciate everything you did. Thank you so much xxx"
" We can not thank you enough for the service you provided when Kevin passed away yesterday & to have his ashes back home with his family in less than 24hrs is such a comfort. Kevin will be sadly missed and we will always be grateful for the care, speed, attention and kindness you offered at such a sad time"
"I would recommend Gareth to anyone who has suffered the death of a dog. Unfortunately we lost our German shepherd and didn’t know where to start. Gareth was very professional and caring throughout the whole process. He explained to us everything that would happen so we could follow Harley through his final hours before me cremation. Harley was back with us in no time the process of this was quicker than expected. Thanks Gareth for making us feel at ease at such a difficult time."
