Saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of life’s hardest moments. As someone who has walked through loss myself and helped many others honor their furry companions, I know how meaningful it is to feel seen and supported during grief. That’s why I’m so honored to announce something very close to my heart:
Two brand-new Pet Sympathy Gift Boxes, lovingly curated in collaboration with Dogkind Candles — a fellow women-owned small business that understands how to bring comfort, calm, and light during the difficult moments after saying goodbye to a very loved pet.
Thoughtfully Crafted with Healing in Mind
Let’s be honest — it’s really hard to find a meaningful, high-quality pet loss care package. Many options online can feel generic or mass-produced, missing the heart and tenderness that pet grief truly deserves.
That’s why we created something different.
These new gift boxes are handmade with deep care — by two small business women owners who are also devoted pet parents.
I (Mandi) handcraft pet portraits and memorial artwork to help preserve the memory of beloved animals, and Jen (founder of Dogkind Candles) lovingly pours each coconut soy candle in small batches with clean, pet-safe fragrances and compassion in every jar. This isn’t just a box of items — it’s a carefully curated expression of comfort and remembrance, built from our shared mission to support grieving pet parents with something that actually feels personal and real.
Both myself and Jen have been absolutely devastated after our own pet losses and we have such empathy for those going through the same hardship.
What’s Inside The Pet Loss Gift Box?
You can now choose between two comforting options, depending on the level of support or sentiment you’d like to give:
Pet Sympathy Gift Box – $79
A simple, heartfelt gift that can be shipped within a week includes:
- Custom memorial candle with the pet’s name, in your choice of scent
- Handmade pet print etching from Greyboy Pet Prints (pre-made art breed specific: cat, Chihuahua, Frenchie, Corgi….)
- Small glass jar of complementary matches
- Note card + sticker
Pet Loss Care Package – $139
This care package has everything listed above, but the handmade pet print is CUSTOM for this package. Greyboy Pet Prints just needs a few in focus photos of your pet’s face and Mandi will craft the pet portrait with YOUR pet’s adorable face.
Everything in the pet loss gift box is chosen to gently acknowledge the pain of loss while offering a way to remember the love and joy their pet brought. You can use the personalized candle and handmade etching as part of a memorial ceremony to help ease the pain of losing a pet companion, or simply place the candle and pet art next to a favorite photo, urn, or pet collar.
Why Dogkind Candles?
I partnered with Dogkind Candles because they’re kindred spirits in compassion. Their candles are hand-poured in the U.S. and are vegan, made with clean, non-toxic ingredients that can be safely burned around pets and their people. With candle scents like Whiskey Fire Vanilla, Grapefruit Agave, Rose Sandalwood, and many more they are sure to be a hit!
Together, we’ve created something that reflects our shared love for animals and our hope to bring comfort when it’s needed most.
