Upright Pet Memorials
Your pet was and still is a member of the family, an upright pet memorial will honor their passing to the fullest. Our upright headstones can be easily customized to host the life and story of your pet much like any other loved one you need to memorialize. Set atop a base, an upright memorial will stand tall above any others in the pet section of the cemetery with restrictions, and fully encapsulate your darling pet’s story. Start by selecting the color that most speaks to who they were and the role they played in your life. The biggest and best feature of the upright memorial is the ability for you to design both the front, back, and even sides with engraving, lines of text, and other symbols. Having so much space will allow you to show off an amazing dog or cat to the world for generations to come.
Bronze Pet Memorial Plaques
Our pet memorials don’t just stop at granite offerings. We now offer a full line of various bronze pieces that can either be mounted to granite, garden stones, or stand-alone.
Our bronze can come embedded with either a raised photo of your pet as with our “Fluffy” example or a full-color bronze inlay as with the “Houdini” and “Cookie” examples.
All of these bronze plaque options can be adapted to tell the story of any of our lost furry friends. They were our companions and extensions of our family, why not memorialize them as such.

Cat Memorial
Your beloved feline friend or family member had a wonderfully easy-going life with you and your family as its caregiver. When it comes time to lay that beloved friend to rest, their personality and daily activities can aid in creating a beautiful memorial to help you remember them. The granite stone itself can come in a wide range of colors listed below. For personalized pet memorials we highly recommend using the laser engraving technique to pack in a ton of detail about your cat.
Note: laser engraving works best in contrasting colors, so a black or blue pearl granite will be best for the overall design.
Dog Memorial
Much like their feline counterparts, to a pet lover, a dog can be a sole companion or even a member of a larger herd. No matter how they best lived life, a beautiful granite pet headstone will definitely be able to encompass their whole story.
Typically a dog memorial will include their pawprints or other renderings of them in full “puppy play mode”.
For those looking to cremate their loved ones, we do offer the ability to inlay and incorporate their remains into the memorial stone. Full-color photos are also available to be used through our porcelain inlay option.
