Gentle Goodbyes in The Comfort of Home
Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of life's most painful moments.
At Autumn Tails, we offer gentle, in-home euthanasia in Warrington and across Cheshire, allowing your pet to stay where they feel safest — surrounded by love and familiar comforts.
For those who prefer a neutral setting, we also offer appointments in the peaceful Farewell Room at Woodlands Cottage Crematorium — a calm, home-like space designed for quiet goodbyes.
Whether the passing takes place in a cosy spot by the fire, under a favourite tree in the garden or in the restful Farewell Room, we’re here to support you with compassion, care and time.
Taking the first step is never easy. By reaching out to Lizzie, you’ll find a kind, listening ear and gentle guidance through every stage of the journey. You don’t have to go through this on your own — we’re here to answer your questions, offer reassurance, and provide compassionate support for you and your beloved pet.


Why Choose In-Home Euthanasia
Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the hardest moments you’ll ever face.
Choosing to do so at home can bring peace, dignity and comfort to both you and your companion.
At home, your pet can remain in a familiar place, surrounded by the people and scents they love, without the stress and discomfort of travelling to the vet.
For pets who are elderly, unwell or anxious, the journey itself — getting into the car, being handled and waiting in a clinic — can cause unnecessary fear or pain in their final moments.
Home euthanasia also allows you to grieve in privacy, without the emotional strain of saying goodbye in a public space. You can choose the perfect spot and spend as much time as you need together. You can hold them, speak softly and say farewell in your own way, without the pressure of a clinical setting.
At Autumn Tails, we believe every pet deserves a peaceful farewell and every family deserves the comfort of knowing they gave their friend the gentlest goodbye possible.
Compassionate Care You Can Trust
At Autumn Tails, we understand how deeply pets are woven into the fabric of our lives — and how important it is that their final moments are handled with dignity, love and compassion.
