Pet Cremations in Ormskirk and Burscough
Heavenly Pastures Pet Cremations is an independent, family-owned business. As lifelong pet lovers and owners ourselves, we understand the deep sorrow that comes with saying goodbye to a beloved companion. Every beloved pet entrusted to our care is treated with the utmost dignity, compassion, and respect – just as we would our very own.
What’s more, we know that if you need our services, it can be a challenging time and may come out of the blue. That’s why we strive to offer competitive rates, with cremation services starting at £42.50, depending on the size of your pet, location from our crematorium, and whether you opt for an individual or communal service.
Collection & Support
We are here for you whenever you need us, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You can contact us via WhatsApp at any time and we’ll be here to support you with compassion and care.
Your Pet Is Safe With Us
Providing exceptional care and compassion is at the heart of everything we do. You can trust that your beloved companion is in safe hands – treated with kindness, respect, and the utmost dignity at every step of their final journey.
Every pet in our care will receive a unique number that stays with them from the moment they arrive and until they return home – so they can be tracked at every stage of the process. We carry out all cremations ourselves at our Burscough facility and in line with the relevant DEFRA and APHA regulatory requirements.
Personalised Just For You
All engraving is carried out in-house, ensuring every detail is handled with care and precision. No request is ever too much – we go above and beyond to make sure your caskets and keepsakes are truly bespoke and perfect, created just for you and your beloved companion.
A Small Team Who Truly Care
How Pet Cremation Works
Contact Us
If you’ve recently lost your beloved pet and require our pet cremation services, get in touch with our team to discuss your options. During this time, keep your pet in a cool and quiet place while you decide your next steps.
We’re reachable around the clock, with out-of-hours services available upon request, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays to arrange a collection.
There’s no need to rush – you can take all the time you need. We operate by appointment and can often arrange a collection within an hour.
We Collect Your Pet
We’ll travel to your home or veterinary practice to collect your loved animal to keep your experience as stress- and hassle-free as possible. If preferred, you can also bring your pet to us after making an appointment.
If you’d like to, you can take some time to say goodbye in our Burscough chapel. Any belongings, such as a bed, blanket, or toy, can come with your pet, too. Afterwards, we can return them, respectfully dispose of them, or donate them to a local charity depending on your preferences.
Cremation with Care
You can choose between an individual cremation, where you’ll receive your pet’s ashes or a communal cremation, depending on your needs.
During this process, you can rest assured that your pet is treated with the utmost respect and dignity.
With an individual cremation, your pet will be cremated on their own, and their ashes are returned only to you. We also offer communal cremations where pets are cremated together, and their ashes are not returned. We can also take paw prints, nose prints, and fur clippings.
Please note, owners cannot be present for the cremation itself.
Ashes Returned
We’ll return your pet’s ashes, with optional keepsakes, like nose and paw prints, fur clippings, and engravings, too, for an extra special sentimental gesture. We aim to have the process completed within 72 hours to help you with your grieving process as much as possible.

Notification of your pet’s death
Within 30 days of your loss, you should inform your veterinary practice, dental practice, and physiotherapist in order to prevent appointment reminders in the future.
Cremation Options
Along with your wishes, we can offer you a cost-effective cremation or an individual cremation with your pet’s ashes being returned to you. The choice is yours, and we are able to take a respectful approach to meet your circumstances, personal preference and budget. If you choose an individual cremation, we will return your companion’s ashes to you in a scatter tube or you can choose to upgrade to a beautiful oak casket with a brass nameplate engraved with their name. Whatever you choose, we will handle your pet with the utmost professionalism and respect.
Heavenly Pastures Pet Cremations
Heavenly Pastures are here to support you with pet collection if needed and pet cremation services in the North West – we cover the North West counties of Lancashire, Merseyside and Cheshire. We give you sufficient space to grieve as our premier end of life service takes care of all the practical arrangements on your behalf.
About Heavenly Pastures
Run by Paul and his family, we’re a small, close-knit team who genuinely understand your loss, having experienced the heartbreak that accompanies losing an animal first-hand. Between us, we share two cocker spaniels, three cats, two rabbits, two horses, a donkey, and a Shetland pony – so you can rest assured that we’ll care for your companion like one of our own.
Our family-run business has served the Lancashire, Cheshire, and Merseyside areas since 2023, and Paul has been caring for families’ animals for around 20 years – well before Heavenly Pastures opened its own crematorium in Burscough.
We were devastated over her loss and I am so glad and appreciative that I contacted Heavenly Pastures for their help. I called them on Sunday and was able to take Tigger to them. I dont know what I would have done otherwise.
I highly recommend Heavenly Pastures.. 5 star company with 5 star people. Thank you

Thankyou so very much
From the moment I contacted them I knew they were caring and would treat my girl with respect and dignity and they did just that!! Oliver collected my girl from my house an hour after I made contact. He was caring and showed compassion, he kept me upto date that evening and the following day when her Cremation took place. Oliver came back to my house to bring my girl home to me less than 48 hours after picking her up.
From start to finish the team were amazing, caring, respectful and dignified showing compassion in every step.
When I was going through such a difficult time they were at their best in every way.
Thankyou to Oliver and the team for everything you have done for us and our girl.
We are so thankful.
Thank you so much for making this process so easy, you are a credit to your profession and industry.
I need to acknowledge the contribution made by Oliver who returned Danny home he was a pleasure to talk with at what was for us a very difficult time.
Thank you once again for your care and the attention to detail shown to our boy "Danny".
WITH YOU
every step of the way
