We believe in honoring the lives of pets

Here at Best Friends, animals have such a special place in our lives. We honor those pets we’ve loved and those who need our help today. At Best Friends, we keep pets in our hearts

Remembrances

Leaving a personal story, memory, or words of support for a pet’s family is a heartfelt way to pay tribute and provide comfort. As part of your remembrance, we also invite you to leave a virtual token along with your words — similar to our tradition here at the Sanctuary of leaving stones, beloved items, or small toys on the graves of cherished animals.

Leave Your Remembrance

Sicily Gran loves you so much! And I still think you are here more in the morning and look in the bed to see how you are doing before I leave for work. You will say, Gran im good from the higher realms and show me youre enjoying the grassy fields on beautiful sunny days.
Your presence made a loving difference uplifting us all. And your energy in spirit now continues to do the same.

Report Remembrance

Sissy was an Angel puppy sent to earth, adopted by her Angel Momma, Julia. She was the most loving, heartful puppy with the most amazing, smirky smile. She touched everyone's heart who knew her. She is now a guardian Angel to Julia and all whose hearts she touched. We celebrate her life and are thankful for her being born to earth. We love you always, Momma Julia, Kia, Sanchi, Sally XOXOXO
