Individual cremation for dogs, cats and small pets, with home or vet collection across City of London. Get a quote or speak to our team.
Care throughout City of London
Pet cremation in the City of London is for residents of the Square Mile, including the Barbican and Golden Lane, as well as families arranging collection from a veterinary practice in the area. We provide individual cremation for dogs, cats and small pets. The City is distinct from the wider London service area, so this page focuses on making collection from a central address clear and manageable.
Individual cremation gives you a clear choice when you want your pet's ashes returned. We explain the arrangements before collection, record your pet's details and help you understand what will happen next. You can ask questions at any stage; you do not need to make every decision about remembrance at the same time as organising collection.
A quote is a starting point for your own pet and address. Tell us whether your pet has already died or whether you are planning ahead, and whether they are at home or with a vet. If your pet is still alive and needs medical help, contact your veterinary practice; this page is for cremation arrangements.
For a City of London collection, precise access information is often more useful than the distance to a landmark. Include the building's name, the correct door and any instruction from the building manager. We will discuss the practical arrangement before confirming collection, including who will meet the team and whether there are stairs or a working lift. Please do not move your pet into a public reception area simply to make access easier. Explain the situation first so a respectful handover can be planned around your home and the building's requirements.
You can choose your own cremation provider. If a veterinary practice is caring for your pet, tell it your choice and confirm its release requirements before collection. Check whether another aftercare arrangement has already been authorised. Let the practice know who will collect your pet, and share its contact details with our team so the handover can be agreed.
Our service covers addresses throughout City of London. Some neighbourhoods extend across council boundaries; the places below refer to the parts within this borough.
For homes in the Barbican or Golden Lane, include the block name, flat number and the appropriate entrance in your collection details. If a concierge, porter or estate office needs to be involved, arrange this before the visit and tell us whom to contact. A pedestrian route to a flat may be different from the vehicle approach, so describing both can prevent unnecessary calls during a sensitive handover.
We cover City addresses around Smithfield, Farringdon, Fleet Street and Blackfriars. These neighbourhood names can also be used for nearby streets beyond the City boundary. Give the full postcode and street address rather than relying on a station name. If your pet is at a practice in this area, confirm the practice's collection entrance and release arrangements with its staff.
City addresses around Aldgate and Tower Hill are also covered. If you are arranging a collection on behalf of someone who lives here, check whether the building has a reception desk, a delivery entrance or restrictions on visitor access. Tell us where the pet is actually located; an office correspondence address should not be used as the collection address unless that is genuinely where collection is needed.

The full postcode in your quote is used to check the actual collection address, rather than treating every address in a district as belonging to the same borough.

Cremation prices starting from £154
Dog cremation in the City can be arranged without taking your dog through a shared lobby or travelling to another borough yourself. Tell us their size and the route from your flat to the vehicle access point. If you cannot safely help with lifting, raise that at booking so the team can advise on the collection arrangements.

For cats and small pets in the Square Mile, you can discuss a discreet collection and a separate address for the return of ashes. This may be useful if you will be staying with family after the loss. Confirm the intended recipient and contact details rather than assuming a concierge or reception team can accept the ashes on your behalf.

Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds and other small companions matter just as much to their families. Tell us the species and approximate size so we can explain the appropriate arrangements. Individual cremation is available for small pets too; do not assume it is only an option for dogs and cats. If your pet is in a carrier or has a favourite blanket, ask what can accompany them and which belongings you would like kept. Make those requests before handover so the team can confirm what is possible.
About rabbit cremationStarting prices are for cremation itself. Use the form for your personalised quote, including collection and return of ashes.
Start with a personalised quote, or talk through the arrangements with our team. You can return to the form without losing what you have entered.
We confirm your pet's details, the collection location and your contact information. Tell us about access, your wishes for the ashes and any personal items you would like kept. Ask for clarification if something is unclear before you authorise the service.
Your pet's identity is recorded for the care journey. Check that the name and owner details on the booking are correct, particularly when collection is from a vet or someone else has helped organise it. The team can explain identification and tracking before handover.
With individual cremation, your pet is cremated separately and their ashes are prepared for return to you. If you are comparing aftercare options, ask specifically whether the service is individual and whether ashes are returned, so you are comparing the arrangements you actually want.
Our usual ashes-return timescale is 7-9 working days. Confirm the return address and who will receive them. If your plans change, contact the team before the return is organised. A collection address is not automatically the right place to return the ashes.

Read this review on TrustpilotI found the service efficient and straight forward. Everything was explained by the representive on the phone and my dog was collected the same day. His ashes were returned just over a week later. I would recommend Pet Cremation UK.

Read this review on TrustpilotI really can't recommend pet cremation enough! Katherine took my initial call and handled me with such care and empathy at such an awful time, she was also there for calls that I made after and was just so kind! The man that collected my dog was also very gentle and kind. I feel like my beautiful girl was in such safe hands, I was updated throughout her journey which meant so much. I have just received my Roxy home today and I am overwhelmed by the care that has gone into sending her home to me. Me and my family are so grateful. This company offered me the cheapest quote but have absolutely not scrimped on quality. I would urge anyone who is in need of their services to not look elsewhere. Thank you so much pet cremation.

Yes. You can use the quote form to explain that your pet has not passed away yet and discuss the options. Ask about the next step rather than booking a collection you do not yet need. For advice about your pet's health, comfort or treatment, speak to your vet.
