I am so sorry for the pain you are feeling. Losing an adored pet is absolutely soul crushing. I know, I’ve been there too. In 2021 our family lost two of our elderly, cherished, sweet dachshunds, Fred and Koko, within one week of each other. The pain was like no other.

The loss can be so profound and deeply heartbreaking. With the loss of a beloved companion comes an emptiness and pain that is indescribable. After all, our sweet companions are part of our family and bring us unconditional love, joy, laughter, companionship and so much more.

After Koko and Fred died, people tried to comfort me. The truth is even though I knew they were trying to help, some of their well-meaning advice and words meant to comfort me were hurtful. Not everyone gets what it’s like to lose a pet. The support one receives after losing a pet is often minimal because not everyone gets the extraordinary bond pet people experience. The relationship and thus the loss of the pet is undervalued by others.

As a way to honor Koko’s & Fred’s legacy, I began wondering how I could help others. I put myself through training to become a Certified Pet Loss & Bereavement Counselor.

To me, supporting people through such a profound loss is extremely fulfilling. It is my honor to walk alongside you and help you find some peace, comfort and help you heal.
