King County’s Memorial Pet Garden a peaceful place to celebrate your animal companion’s life

A pet is a treasured member of families across King County, and their passing can be a traumatic and difficult time. King County Parks offers the perfect setting for celebrating your pet’s special place in your life – the Memorial Pet Garden in Marymoor Park.

Adjacent to the 40-acre Marymoor Park Offleash Dog Area, the Memorial Pet Garden offers a beautiful and peaceful place where you can memorialize your living, lost or deceased pet with a specially inscribed garden paving stone, bench or an inscription on the celebration wall, where a pet’s cremated remains can be interred.

“The Memorial Pet Garden has become an important part of the pet-owning community, and King County is proud to offer this beautiful and peaceful location,” said King County Parks Director Kevin Brown.

“We’ve heard from several people who have said, ‘What a nice way to honor our dog’s memory,’ and, ‘It’s great to have such a beautiful place to enjoy and remember my pet,’” he said.

The 1.25 acre Marymoor Memorial Park Pet Garden is the first of its kind in the region, and is supported in part through donations made by pet garden patrons. For more information, call 206-205-3661, or visit http://www.kingcounty.gov/recreation/parks/inventory/marymoor/petgarden.aspx.
