We understand
Saying goodbye is one of the hardest things we ever do
The companion who greeted you every morning, curled up beside you, and loved you without condition is suddenly gone — and in the rawness of that grief, you’re asked to make decisions you never wanted to face. We believe this part should be gentle.
At Adelaide Pet Cremation, our only job is to lift the practical weight from your shoulders, so you can simply be with your family and your memories. We’ll treat your pet with the same tenderness and respect we’d give our own, and we’ll keep you reassured at every step — calmly, honestly, and without ever rushing you.

Frequently asked questions
A few of the questions families ask us most. You’re always welcome to call and ask anything.
My pet has just passed away — what do I do now?
First, take a breath — there’s no rush, and you don’t have to manage this alone. When you’re ready, call us on 0468 060 402. We’ll talk you through everything calmly, arrange gentle collection from your home or vet, and care for the rest. If it’s after hours, our emergency line is here for you.
What’s the difference between individual and communal cremation?
With individual (private) cremation, your pet is cremated on their own and their ashes are returned to you. With communal cremation, several pets are cremated together and the ashes are not returned but respectfully scattered. We offer both and will help you choose without any pressure.
How do I know the ashes returned are really my pet’s?
With our individual cremation, your pet is cremated on their own — so the ashes returned to you are only ever your pet’s. Your pet is identified and cared for individually at every stage of our process.
How much does pet cremation cost in Adelaide?
The cost depends mainly on your pet’s size and whether you choose individual or communal cremation, plus any urns or keepsakes. We’ll always explain the full cost clearly before anything proceeds — please call us for a gentle, no-obligation quote for your pet.
Are you available after hours?
Our regular hours are 8:30am – 7:00pm, and we also have an after-hours emergency line for urgent situations. If you need us outside normal hours, please call — we’re here to help.
