Roseberry Pet Crematorium

Pet Crematorium in Stokesley for Teesside and North Yorkshire

Roseberry Pet Crematorium is an independent, family-run pet crematorium located on the outskirts of Stokesley. It provides individual cremation services across Teesside and North Yorkshire, with collection of the pet and return of the ashes to the owners.

The company states that it is independent of all veterinary practices and warns that the vet may not automatically contact it when a pet passes away, so it recommends that owners make their wishes clear to the professional. All cremations it performs are individual, so the ashes returned correspond solely to the animal cremated.

Collection of the pet and return of ashes

The service offers different options depending on where the death or euthanasia takes place:

• At home: the company collects the pet and arranges an individual cremation at its Stokesley crematorium. It then returns the ashes to the home if it is within a 20-mile radius of the crematorium, or the owner can collect them in person.
• At the veterinary practice: the owner can call before going or ask the vet to contact the company to collect the pet. The ashes are returned to the practice itself or can be collected from the Stokesley crematorium.
• Drop-off by the owner: it is possible to bring the pet personally to the Stokesley crematorium by appointment. The centre has ample free parking. In this case, home delivery of ashes extends to a 30-mile radius, or they can be collected from the crematorium.

The company states that its aim is to return the ashes within 48 hours of receiving the pet.

Visits to the crematorium and Farewell Room
