The Grief Recovery® Program for Pet Loss

The Grief Recovery® Program for Pet Loss is a compassionate, action-based six-week journey designed to help you process the heartbreak of losing a beloved pet. This program offers personalized support in a safe and nonjudgmental environment, available both in-person and online to meet your needs.

What is Pet Loss Grief

Grief is emotional, not logical. The grief that comes with losing a pet can be overwhelming and isolating. Many pet owners find that people who normally provide emotional support may suggest “just get another pet” – something they would never say about the loss of a human family member.

Pet grief is often misunderstood or minimized by others, yet the relationships we form with our pets are among the closest connections we experience in life. The unconditional love from a pet creates a special bond that, when broken through loss, causes genuine heartbreak.

The Problem

Many people struggle to heal after the loss of a beloved pet—not because they lack the desire to move forward, but because their grief is often invisible to the world around them.
They’re met with comments such as:

  • “You can just get another one.”
  • “It was just a dog/cat.”
  • “At least it wasn’t a person.”

Though often meant to comfort, these words only deepen the hurt. They send the message that your love and your loss don’t matter. This quiet dismissal leaves many grievers feeling isolated, ashamed of their emotions, and unsure of where to turn.

When grief isn’t acknowledged, it doesn’t disappear. It lingers beneath the surface, disrupting joy, connection, and even the ability to fully open your heart again.
