Dignified farewells, personal care

At Stamford Pet & Equine Crematorium we are animal lovers ourselves, and we understand what you are going through. Our caring and considerate team is here to support you at an extremely difficult time.

We provide individual cremations carried out in excellent facilities, with a wide range of beautiful caskets and keepsakes so you can choose what feels right for you.

Because the final day can sometimes come without warning, we offer a reliable, professional and dignified service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

We can collect your pet from your home, veterinary practice, or livery yard, or you may bring them directly to us to say goodbye in the privacy of our Goodbye Room. Ashes can be collected from us or personally returned to your home or vet to ensure their safe return.

Who we are

Amber Lodge was created in memory of our beloved poodle, Amber. When she passed, we trusted a cremation service to care for her, but sadly, they didn’t keep the simple promises they made. We never received the lock of her fur or her paw print, and it left us feeling deeply let down. That experience stayed with us, and we knew there had to be a better, more thoughtful way to help families say goodbye.

So we built Amber Lodge, a family-run pet crematorium with care at the heart. We’ve designed everything from the ground up to offer a service we would have wanted for Amber. Based in Stamford, we serve families in Peterborough, Oakham, Bourne, Spalding, Huntingdon, Northampton, Milton Keynes, and surrounding areas. We welcome all pets, from fish to horses, and treat each one with the respect and gentleness they deserve.

We know how hard it is to lose a pet. They’re not just animals — they’re part of your family, your routine, your memories. That’s why we’re here: to make sure every goodbye is handled with comfort, dignity, and compassion. Whether you need time in our peaceful Goodbye Room, help choosing a memorial, or simply someone to walk you through the process, we’re here to support you however we can.
