Not a collection round

One pet. One journey.

Most pets that die at a veterinary practice are collected on a scheduled round — several at a time, gathered into a van, processed in bulk. We think that's the wrong way to say goodbye to a member of the family.

So when we come, we come for one pet: yours. Collected by a person with time to stand with you, driven directly, and handed over by name.

How we collect

A respectful cremation doesn't begin at the crematorium. It begins the moment we lift your pet.

Just your pet, nothing else

When we come, we come only for your pet. No rounds, no other collections, no waiting in a vehicle while we visit other addresses — a direct journey, in their own container.

Only ever pets, never waste

Our vehicle carries pets and nothing else — never any form of waste, never deliveries, never anything that doesn't belong beside them.

Our first rule

We handle your pet exactly as we would if you were standing beside us. Every collection, without exception.

Their blanket can come too

If you'd like them collected in their own blanket, or with a small toy, just say — it stays with them.

We do all the lifting

Wherever they are — upstairs, in the garden, still in their bed. Please don't strain yourself before we arrive; carrying them gently is our job.

And ultimately, the collection happens the way you want it to. Carry them to the vehicle yourself, say goodbye at the door, or not be there at all — tell us, and we'll follow your wishes.

You will always know where they are.

From the moment we collect your pet, they are individually identified and tracked throughout their journey.

The crematoria we work with

We partner only with trusted, independent pet crematoria here in the North East — small facilities that cremate individually, never mass operations. For each booking we choose the partner by distance and same-day capacity, so your pet reaches refrigerated care as soon as possible.

Words from families we've helped

It was 2am and I didn't know what to do. They answered, they came, and they were so gentle with her. I'll never forget that.
Sarah & Bella Roker
He came just for Alfie. Carried him to the car like he mattered — no rush, nothing else in the van. The ashes were home within the week.

I couldn't face phone calls. Being able to arrange it all online, at my own pace, meant more than they probably realise.

Questions people ask us

My pet has just died at home — what do I do?

Very little. Leave them where they are, keep the room cool if you can, and take whatever time you need. When you're ready, book online or call — we come to you and handle everything from there. There's gentle step-by-step guidance in "Right now — before we arrive" above.

Do I need to move or prepare my pet before you arrive?

No. Please don't lift or carry them — that's our job, and we do it gently, wherever they are. If it's easy, a towel or blanket underneath them helps; if not, we bring everything needed.

Is there any paperwork when a pet dies at home?

None at all. Unlike a human death, there's no certificate, no registration and nothing to sign. Booking online is genuinely the only thing you need to do — we take care of every step after that.

My pet died at the vet — can you still help?

Of course. Choose "veterinary practice" when booking and we'll collect directly from the practice and liaise with them ourselves — you don't need to go back in.

Can you collect tonight?

Yes. We operate 24 hours a day, every day, including bank holidays. Book online or call and we'll confirm your collection time straight away.

Can you collect from my vet?

Yes. Choose "veterinary practice" when booking and give us the practice address. We'll liaise with them directly — you don't need to be there.

What happens if my pet dies during the night?

Book online or call at any hour. We collect through the night. If you'd rather wait until morning, that's fine too — just tell us when to come.

How long can my pet be kept before cremation?

Your pet is held in secure refrigerated facilities from arrival until cremation, which normally takes place within a few days of collection.

Will my pet be cremated individually?

Yes — always. Individual cremation is the only service we offer. Your pet is cremated entirely alone, and the ashes returned to you are theirs. We deliberately don't offer communal cremation.

Will my pet travel with other pets?

No. Every collection is a single journey for a single pet — we don't run rounds, and your pet is never gathered together with others. They travel in their own container, in a clean vehicle that carries nothing else, driven directly.

How is my pet handled?

As if you were standing beside us — that's our first rule, on every collection without exception. Their own blanket or a small toy can travel with them if you wish.

Which crematorium will my pet go to?

One of our partner crematoria in the North East — small, independent facilities that cremate individually. We choose by distance and same-day capacity, and we tell you exactly which crematorium is caring for your pet when we confirm your collection. You're updated at every stage after that.

How do I know I receive my own pet's ashes?

Your pet is given a unique identification tag at collection which stays with them through every stage, including cremation. This documented chain of custody is how we guarantee the ashes you receive are your pet's.

Can you collect large dogs?

Yes, including giant breeds over 50kg. Our team and vehicles are equipped for dogs of every size, and your pet will always be moved with care and dignity.

How far do you travel?

Further than you'd expect. The calculator prices collections up to 250 miles from Sunderland — most of England and southern Scotland — with the fee shown before you pay. Even further? Call us and we'll quote the journey personally.

What happens if I'm outside your normal area?

Call us. We can often still arrange collection at a custom price, or recommend someone trustworthy near you.

Can I pay online?

Yes — card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Revolut. You'll receive an emailed receipt and booking confirmation immediately.

Can I arrange everything without speaking on the phone?

Yes. The whole process — price, booking and payment — can be completed online. We'll text to confirm your collection time. A real person is always available if you'd rather talk.

When will I receive the ashes?

Ashes are usually ready to come home within 7–10 days of collection. We'll arrange hand delivery or a time that suits you.

Can I add memorial products later?

Yes. Paw prints and fur keepsakes are taken at collection as standard where possible, so you can decide about prints, urns and other memorials in the days afterwards.
