A gentle guide for the first hours — when you're not sure what comes next.
There is no rush. Sit with your companion as long as you need. This is your time to say goodbye, and nobody will hurry you. If your pet passes overnight, keep them in a cool, quiet room and contact us in the morning — ask whether providers are collection hours vary by provider.
Wrap your companion in a soft blanket and place them in a cool, dry room — a tiled floor or utility room works well. For small pets, a cool room is sufficient for short periods. If collection will be several hours away, place ice packs wrapped in a towel alongside the body (never directly on). This prevents rapid changes while you make arrangements.
Complete our contact form and the provider calls you back — typically during opening hours during working hours. We can help you arrange a collection time that suits you. Same-day collection is nearly always possible for all Newcastle postcodes (NE1–NE7, NE12, NE13, NE15).
Individual cremation means your companion is cremated alone and their ashes are returned to you in a hand-finished casket or scatter tube. Communal cremation is a dignified farewell where the combined ashes are scattered in a memorial garden. Not sure which to choose? We will discuss you through the options — no pressure. Read our full guide on communal vs individual cremation.
Yes — in England it is legal to bury small domestic pets in your garden provided you own the property, the burial site is away from water sources and at least 1 metre deep, and your companion has not been treated with controlled drugs. Renting? You'll need written permission from your landlord. Many Newcastle families prefer cremation for the flexibility it offers — you can keep the ashes, scatter them in a favourite walking spot, or have them placed in a participating crematorium's memorial garden. If you're unsure which is right for you, we're happy to talk it through.
Ask the participating provider about its typical cremation and ash-return timeline. Timing depends on the crematorium's schedule and the day of collection — each provider will give you a clear estimate when you enquire.
Yes — most Newcastle veterinary practices will offer to arrange cremation on your behalf, but you always have the right to choose your own provider. To use our referral service, tell your vet you have chosen your own provider. We will seek a suitable independent provider who can coordinate collection from the practice — ask about any collection charges. You do not have to be present. Local vet practices in Jesmond, Gosforth, Heaton, and the city centre may know established providers and can liaise directly with them.
