Cara DeLaRosa - Pet Loss Grief Coach - Nationwide
Member since Jun 2023
I am a Certified Pet Loss Grief Coach who supports pet parents through all aspects of their grief journey.
I began this work in 2012 after the loss of my own heart animal, and was officially certified in 2016.
I am also an animal hospice provider who performs quality of life evaluations remotely and in-person, helping pet parents determine the best time to make that most difficult decision. I teach tools to help you advocate for your animal when working with your veterinary team.
I have created a 7 month self-paced pet loss course, teach live classes and work 1-1 with pet parents.

Custom Channelled Memorial Portrait
$ 300.00 Per Portrait
I work from photos of your beloved angel pet to create a beautiful custom pet portrait. I call them in during my painting, and they often give color and symbol suggestions.
Each portrait takes about two weeks from start to finish. I use mixed media: watercolor pencils, pens, acrylic paint, sometimes real whiskers and collage.
You receive a completed, framed portrait, ready to hang.
Shipping included in total cost.

In this complimentary call you discuss your concerns, I discuss my service options and we decide how to proceed.
