Pet Owners Grief Counselling

Do you feel embarrassed about seeking counselling for pet loss?  Sadly, many people still do.

I provide grief counselling specifically for pet owners.  Pet owners experience “disenfranchised grief” - grief that is not recognised or validated by society. This can result in feeling unsupported, judged, misunderstood and alone during an already heartbreaking time.

Many people say pets are like family.  I would go even further and say to many people they are more than family. Your pet’s love is often the most real and consistent form of unconditional love you will ever experience.  Because of this you also feel free to love them unconditionally. This reciprocal unconditional love results in an incredibly powerful bond.  It makes sense you will grieve when this bond is broken.

The number one thing people need when grieving is support.  I feel privileged to offer you this support during one of the most heartbreaking times of your life.  I have pets of my own and I truly get the impact losing a pet-friend in whatever form can have on you, be it a furry, feathered or scaly pet-friend.

Bee Yourself Counselling has teamed-up with Sunset Pets.  Ben and his team provide in-home end of life options for your pet.

We are a team of dedicated Veterinary professionals who believe it is a privilege to be a part of your journey, and an honour to assist you in saying goodbye.

We recognise that making the decision to say goodbye to a beloved friend is one of the hardest things you will have to do. It is our goal to support you through this process, so that you can say farewell in the most peaceful way possible.

Many of us have walked through the grief of letting go of a beloved pet. 

For us, this is a position of great trust and privilege, and one that can be unexpectedly rewarding. We bear witness to the love that you have for your animal, listen to stories of their full and happy lives and share the warm memories of them while in your care, including sometimes cheeky antics.

Our mission is to make this process as peaceful and healing as possible by creating a non-judgemental, compassionate and safe space for your goodbye.

We are a team of passionate animal lovers and environmentalists leading positive change in the pet cremation industry. With our ethos for pet water cremation in Townsville, we provide personal, genuine and supportive care to families, absolute love and respect for their fur babies and relentless focus on sustainable business practices and corporate responsibility for the good of our community and our beautiful planet.

Beyond exceeding our customer expectations at providing our services, our mission is to create a shift in the outdated cremation industry, offering greener solutions with standards beyond compliance and inspiring positive environmental change through our services and products to foster a more sustainable future. 

It's never easy losing a pet and nobody understands that better than the caring team at Pet Heaven NQ. It can be an extremely difficult time for the whole family, especially when young children have to say goodbye to their cat or dog without really understanding what's happening. Thankfully, we're here to make this time as painless as possible. 

At Pet Heaven NQ, we have been helping families to deal with the loss of their pets for more than 12 years. Servicing Townsville and the surrounding areas, we offer a comprehensive range of burial, cremation and pet memorial services to help celebrate the life of your pet. 

Whether you want to have your pet buried in our beautiful cemetery or an urn to place your pet's ashes in to keep as memorial. Our caring team will be more than happy to meet your needs.
