Ways to remember your pet

It’s so hard to say goodbye to our faithful animal companions, but when you’re ready, there are a number of ways you can consider honoring the memory of your special pet.

 
 

Angels Rest 

Here at Angels Rest, hundreds of wind chimes ring in remembrance of beloved pets, and memorial markers pay tribute to the love we hold for our dogs, cats and other companions.

If you’d like to remember your pet, or the pet of a loved one, these memorials can be sent to you or placed at our Sanctuary – one of the most beautiful places on Earth.  

Wind chimes

The soothing sounds of wind chimes can comfort and calm a heart that’s hurting.

They can be sent to you or you can request to have them placed at Angels Rest or Angels Overlook.

Making art in memory of your pet

At Angels Rest and Angels Overlook, we have a tradition of painting rocks in memory of animals that have passed to place on their final resting spots in Angel Canyon.
