At PetsForeverland, our story begins with the deep bond between humans and their furry companions. The inspiration behind our platform came to life about five years ago, after our beloved dog Ace found eternal fields of birds to point and chase. It was a poignant moment in our lives, especially for our daughter, who was just a few weeks shy of her 9th birthday when Ace passed.
In the weeks and months following Ace's departure, our daughter would often express how much she missed her faithful dog. Sometimes, tears would well up in her eyes as we retold stories about Ace—stories that made us laugh, wonder, or cry. As we reminisced about the wonderful moments we shared with Ace, we would ask ourselves, "How do we keep these cherished memories of Ace with us forever?"
Now, our daughter is 14, and for the past five years, we've been pondering the answer to that question. While there are a couple of other websites dedicated to pet remembrances, they often felt either too somber or too much like human obituaries. We wanted something different—an online platform where pet owners could memorialize their beloved furry friends in a unique and fun way, share stories, laugh, cry and remember how much they meant to us.Thus, PetsForeverland was born.
PetsForeverland is a one-of-a-kind online platform designed to help pet owners celebrate and preserve the lives of their beloved companions forever. Our mission is simple: we want your pets and their stories to live on. Ace’s nickname among our family and friends was, “America’s Guest” because he never met a stranger. He was always giving - to us, to those around us and to other dogs (that dog loved to play!) - so in the spirit of Ace’s giving, we are giving back to the animal community. A $1.00 donation from each subscription fee will go to support an animal charity at the end of each year. By using PetsForeverland to memorialize your pet’s story, you are not only celebrating your pet's life but also contributing to a meaningful cause that helps other animals in need.
If you want to comment or share any stories about someone’s pet, just create an account to log in. To post a story of your pet, create an account and post all the pictures you want. It’s just $11.99 to write the story of your beloved pet. You’re probably wondering where the other $10.99 goes? It’s a fair question and given that many people think everything on the internet should be free, sometimes it is a difficult answer. But the simple fact that hosting costs are considerable - especially for photos and soon, videos - that have to be paid. Additionally, as we all know, technology evolves rapidly and five years from now, we do not want your pet stories to look like they’re on a website from 2003. So we’ll be investing significant dollars to continually enhance PetsForeverland, so your pet stories remain as vibrant as always.
PetsForeverland is not just a platform—it's a heartfelt tribute to the enduring bond between pets and their owners. Those two, our daughter and Ace, are the very inspiration behind our mission. We understand how important pets are, how much we love them, and how much they mean to us. Our goal is to provide a place where your pets live forever, where you can share memories, photos, and videos with family and friends, and where they can share their stories, photos, and videos too. We hope you'll find PetsForeverland easy to use and that you'll return often. Our wish is for it to be a place where your pets live on.
Forever.
