Individual cremation for dogs, cats and small pets, with home or vet collection across Greenwich. Get a quote or speak to our team.
Care throughout Greenwich
We arrange individual pet cremation throughout the Royal Borough of Greenwich, including Woolwich, Eltham, Charlton, Plumstead and Greenwich itself. You can discuss collection from home or a veterinary practice and choose the address for the return of ashes. The service covers the borough's different neighbourhoods; it is not limited to addresses near Greenwich town centre.
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.
The first question for a Greenwich collection is whether your pet is at home or with a vet. For a home visit, tell us where they are resting, their approximate size and any steps or lift access. For veterinary collection, confirm the practice name, branch and owner authorisation. You may be arranging care from another part of London or on behalf of family; if so, agree who will receive updates and who can answer access questions. We will explain the collection process and confirm availability before a time is treated as booked.
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 Royal Borough of Greenwich. Some neighbourhoods extend across council boundaries; the places below refer to the parts within this borough.
Our coverage includes Greenwich, Greenwich Peninsula, Charlton and Greenwich addresses in Blackheath. For a flat with a concierge, tell us how a collection should be received and which entrance is appropriate. A building may use a different road for vehicle access from the one in its postal address. Explain this when booking so the team can plan around the actual approach to your home.
Woolwich, Plumstead, Abbey Wood and Greenwich addresses in Thamesmead are also covered. Where a neighbourhood is shared with Bexley, the full postcode identifies the location. If you are arranging care for a relative, confirm the flat number and the name used on the intercom. Small details like these can prevent repeated calls when the person at home is preparing to say goodbye.
We help families in Eltham, Kidbrooke, Shooters Hill, New Eltham and Greenwich addresses in Mottingham. If your pet is with a practice in another borough, tell us the branch address and its release requirements. Your home address remains relevant for returning the ashes, but collection should be arranged from the place where your pet is actually being cared for.

Dog cremation in Woolwich, Eltham and across Greenwich is arranged with attention to your dog's size and collection needs.

For cat cremation in Greenwich, Charlton or Plumstead, you can ask about individual care and ashes return while your cat remains with the vet. If you wish to keep a collar or another personal item, make that clear before collection. The return of belongings should be agreed separately from the return of ashes.

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 lost my cat Mannox very suddenly when he was hit by a car. My parents found Pet Cremation and suggested it to me and I’m very glad they did. The man who picked him up the next day was very kind to me. Everything was carried out very quickly which I’m grateful for as I wanted him back asap. The box he arrived in is lovely and big enough for me to add a few of his things. The clipping of his fur is from his tail, I didn’t ask for anything specific but it's what I was secretly hoping for. If you’re hesitating about paying a little bit more for the extras, I definitely recommend it. Thank you for helping me and treating Mannox with the respect he deserves. If you’re reading this and have lost your pet, my heart goes out to you.
