  • Losing a pet can bring deep and overwhelming grief.
    Please know that these feelings are completely normal. They’re a reflection of the love and bond you shared with your beloved companion.

    Below, you’ll find resources to support you during this difficult time.

    VETERINARY CHAPLAINCY SERVICES is a non-profit that offers support to those who have lost their pet, or even those who may know the time is coming. They offer support groups every other Tuesday online. They also offer 1:1 sessions and family sessions.
