Pet funerals and memorials

Honour the companion who shared your everyday life.

The loss of an animal can leave a very real space in a home and a family. A ceremony creates space to acknowledge that bond and say goodbye with love.

A relationship that mattered

There is no need to minimise the loss.

Animals become part of our routines, our stories and our sense of home. They may have been beside us through years of change, welcomed us every day and known how to be present without words.

A pet funeral or memorial can recognise all of that. It can be private or shared with the people who understood the relationship. Children can be included in a gentle, age-appropriate way if you wish.

A personal goodbye

Remember them in ways that feel true.

1

Tell their story

Share the habits, adventures, mischief and moments of comfort that made them unmistakably themselves.

2

Create a keepsake

Gather photographs, write messages, make a memory box or choose an object that carries a happy association.

3

Mark their place

Light a candle, plant a tree, visit a favourite walk or hold a simple ritual in a meaningful setting.

Gentle and unhurried

The ceremony can be as simple as you need.

You may want only a few carefully chosen words, or a fuller celebration of the years you shared. I’ll listen without judgement and help you create something that respects both the loss and the happiness your companion brought.

The ceremony can be in English, Spanish or both and held at home, in a garden or another appropriate place. It may take place soon after the death or later, when you feel ready to gather and remember.

Pricing

From €675, including 21% Spanish IVA (VAT).

Every ceremony I write is bespoke, so there is one price to start from rather than a set of packages to decode.

A second language, travel beyond an hour from Moraira, and a printed order of service are quoted on top, and I will tell you exactly what yours comes to before you commit to anything. A deposit of €200 reserves your date.

Contact me to ask any questions you like.

Their story matters

Tell me what made your companion so special.

You can start with a name, a memory or a question. I will be glad to listen.
