For the love of pets
When a pet’s journey comes to an end, owners often don’t know what to do with themselves. ROSENGARTEN Pet Crematorium is a place of shelter and sanctuary during this phase, a place where you can say goodbye in a dignified manner and create wonderful memories.
Our ideals
Your grief is a final declaration of love to your pet. ROSENGARTEN Pet Crematorium is a place of love where you feel understood and comforted in your grief. Transparency, safety and sustainability are particularly important to us in everything we do. For our customers, for ourselves, and for our employees too.
The ROSENGARTEN pet crematorium - a strong trio in the heart of Switzerland
Three pioneers in the service of small pet and horse cremation meet in the heart of Switzerland - in beautiful Küssnacht am Rigi on Lake Lucerne. A long-cherished wish is now becoming reality. The Rosengarten pet crematorium will soon open a modern facility for pets and horses - and close to you - so that your and our journeys will be shorter. The experienced and innovative founding families have been committed for many years to offering our pets and their owners a dignified setting when the painful decision comes to say goodbye to their beloved companion.
Fretz family
Hartmann family
Dogs, cats and horses have accompanied the Hartmann family since time immemorial and all family members know the crippling pain that arises when a beloved pet is lost. These formative experiences gave rise to the desire to enable other pet owners to bid a dignified farewell to their beloved companion. This wish was fulfilled in 2001 with the opening of the Kirchberg Crematorium in the Canton of Bern. The Hartmann family and their staff have been assisting pet owners for more than 20 years. The Hartmann family, in partnership with the Fretz and Nietfeld families, now brings their experience in running a pet crematorium to the ROSENGARTEN pet crematorium in Küssnacht am Rigi.
Family Nietfeld
Growing up on a farm with three children, dog and cat were always part of the family. After a wonderful time together, a farewell followed at some point. In the family's own garden, each pet was buried with dignity. The importance of mourning prompted reflection and the idea for a pet crematorium was born. In 2002, ROSENGARTEN-Tierbestattung was founded and the first pet crematorium was built in Badbergen. Today, ROSENGARTEN and its committed staff stand for the highest standards in the cremation of pets in Germany.
