  Lost my precious friend felix just over 4 weeks ago and could not praise the service enough from rossendale pet cemetery they took care of her right away from the vets in middleton to the cemetery and were very kind and considerate. This gives me great comfort and peace of mind and I would highly recommend them to anyone who has lost a beloved pet. They were very professional and courteous. Thankyou to all at Rossendale Pet Cemetery.

  We took our beautiful fur baby Quincey to have him cremated. The staff were professional and caring throughout, from the day we took him to the day we collected his ashes. We had his beautiful paw print taken and were able to purchase a beautiful box for his ashes. They gave him the love and care our baby deserved. A beautiful, peaceful place. Highly recommended.

  We recently just laid our 12year old cat Muffin to rest at this beautiful cemetery. The staff here are so lovely, sympathetic and helpful. On Monday 31st October we brought Muffin to Rossendale Pet Cemetery where they looked after her till her funeral was on Wednesday 2nd November. We wanted to lay her to rest ourselves, and place the soil on top of her too. They allowed us to do what we wished to give our beloved cat the best send off. The coffin which they made was perfect. She looked like sleeping beauty. We wanted to wrap her up in her favourite blanket which she used to sleep on, and the lady (I forgot her name) wrapped her up all snuggled up and it was rather emotional as she loved it. We reserved 4 other plots for our other cats so when their time comes they can all lay to rest together. We also got Muffins pawprint imprinted and it is just perfect as there is so much detail in the imprint which reminds us of her. Laying her to rest has brought us comfort and closure knowing she is safe and surrounded by birds and nature which she loved. They allowed us spend as much time with her as we could before her funeral which not words can explain how much we appreciate this. Thank you so much for the excellent service everything was perfect for our little princess.

  We lost our cat Jessie at the end of June and were recommended Rossendale Pet Crematorium by the vet. The entire process was handled discretely and with the utmost care - the staff were very patient and compassionate with us during such a difficult time and we had Jessie back with us in a matter of days. Thank you for making this a little easier for us to cope with.

  My little Rosie rabbit came to you in April or May 2019. I was utterly heartbroken and the only thing that got me through the initial loss which had happened in a very clinical setting, and in a rush, was knowing she was coming to you, and I would see her and she would be peaceful. Walking into the room she was in it felt so calm and I melted into the room and it was just about being there, and everything else disappeared. She was placed like she was sleeping and her eyes were closed which I was glad about. She was wrapped and all the vet stuff from her surgery and attempts at saving her wasn’t what I saw as you made her look so beautiful. I hugged her on her wicker flat basket and after some time with her and kissing her, I said goodbye. As I was coming out to say I was ready to hand her away, I was offered by the man that would be completing her cremation to walk her from the building myself in her wicker bed wrapped up, through the grounds to where she would be cremated. It was sunny and crisp and green everywhere, and little birds tweeting. It was the most dignified goodbye for my Rosie and walking with her to her next place was something I didn’t know I needed and she needed. I’m still not over her death and it took all this time to want to write this, but when I think to seeing her last, it isn’t watching her struggle to breathe before she went at the vets full of shaved patches of fur and tubes, when she was last alive, it’s walking through your grounds in the sun with tears on my cheeks and Rosie peaceful in my arms. I can’t remember how much this cost at all, but there is not a price for what you gave me and her. Thank you

  If you actually love your pet, perhaps think twice… We sadly lost our dog, Charlie, unexpectedly on New Year’s Eve and were recommended to use Rossendale Pet Crematorium by the Vet as we weren’t in a position where we could give him a burial at home. We booked a cremation that would allow us to say goodbye to him, one where he would be cremated alone so we knew his ashes would be his as well as requesting a footprint for my partner to have as a keepsake. Unfortunately for us, this did not happen. We received a phone call 3 days before his cremation was scheduled to be told that there had been a mix up with the paperwork and he’d already been cremated. We were already heartbroken at his loss and now we were being told that our chance could say goodbye was gone forever due to someone not bothering to read the specific paperwork. When we asked how this happened, they just said that it was due to how the paperwork was stored and that someone didn’t notice. To this day I still don’t and probably never will understand how this could happen. The other issue we have is, if the paperwork wasn’t read (and we have copies of it that clearly state the requirements we wanted) and no print was taken, how can we ever be sure that the instruction for him to be cremated on his own was followed out (and not with others which is a cheaper option). How will we ever know that the ashes now on our mantel piece are really his. This company doesn’t even appear to be member of the APCC, which has a code of practice to work to. If we had known any of this, we would have entrusted him to somewhere else. If you truly love your pet and want to give them a dignified send-off... maybe try somewhere else. You only get one chance to say a final goodbye, so make sure you choose the best for them.

  I would just like to say a massive thank-you for taking care of my beautiful girl Suki who passed away recently. I was blown away with everything and felt comforted knowing she was taken care of lovingly and with the respect she deserved thanks once again 💛🐕💛 Andrew Flinn.
