Planning Ahead for Your Pets
At Amy McGarry Law Office, PL, we recognize that pets are cherished members of the family. However, under the law, pets are considered property, which means they cannot inherit assets directly. That’s why it’s important to make legal arrangements to ensure their continued care if you’re ever unable to do so.

Estimating costs for food, veterinary care, grooming, and other essentials

Naming a trusted pet guardian who will love and care for your pet as you would.

Creating written care instructions that include feeding routines, medical needs, favorite activities, and quirks
Sharing these details in advance can ease the transition for both your pet and their new caregiver- whether due to travel, illness, or loss. Planning ahead provides peace of mind and ensures your pet’s comfort and well-being, no matter what life brings.
If you’d like help adding pet care to your estate plan, our compassionate team can guide you through your options and provide tailored legal solutions.
