In this episode of Growth for Good, Drew Hendry speaks with Lisa Lugton, founder of Oliver’s Highland Pet Crematorium in Ross-shire, about her remarkable journey from hospitality and policing to creating a service that redefines compassion in pet care.

Lisa shares how losing her much-loved Jack Russell, Oliver, sparked the idea to build a crematorium where families could say goodbye in a calm, homely space - never clinical, never transactional. She opens up about selling her house, facing fear, and overcoming the hurdles of starting a heart-centred business from scratch.

From her family roots in hospitality and running the award-winning Frankie & Lolas soft play centre, to the influence of her formidable Italian Nana, Lisa’s story is one of resilience, high standards, and empathy at the heart of business.

Topics we cover:

Why Oliver was the inspiration behind the business

Creating a compassionate, gold-standard service for grieving families

Overcoming fear and major sacrifices, including selling her home

Building on values of love, empathy, and supporting local charities & artisans

The future of Oliver’s Highland Pet Crematorium
