Pet Gravestones And Markers

These stones can be personalized with the pet’s name, and dates or years of birth and death. Moreover, you can add a message, quote, or inscription, as well.

In addition, some grave markers can be laser etched with a favorite photo of your special companion. You may also include drawings and symbols of your choice.

These stones are mostly made of granite. Besides, materials like bronze, marble, slate, flagstone, sandstone, etc., may also be used. They are available in different color options.

Furthermore, some manufacturers offer cultured pet grave markers. These markers are made of cast stone or ceramic porcelain. The ceramic ones are usually made by hand, one at a time.
