5 tips for sensing your pet’s spirit after they have passed away
After your pet passes away, it’s perfectly normal to want to see them again—or catch a glimpse of their spirit—so you can know they’re okay.
But if you are focused on looking for the big, flashy visitations often portrayed on television, you might be setting yourself up to miss the more subtle signs and messages that they’ve come by to check on you.
Here are five animal communication tips to help you know where to focus your intuitive antenna so you can sense when they’re paying you a visit…
5 tips to help you sense your pet’s visit - after they have passed away
Invite your pet who has crossed over to visit you
Whether you're tending a pet loss altar or just thinking about how much you miss them, be sure to send them a little intuitive love note with your thoughts. Let them know you would love a visit and extend a heartfelt invitation to them.

When inviting them to visit, there's no need to ask them to appear in a specific way. In fact, it's best if you don’t. Instead, let them know you're open to however they can visit—whatever message or sign they’re able to send is okay with you.
Listen with your heart (not your mind)
Your mind is a powerful force for linear thought and focus, but it has its limitations when it comes to connecting with matters of the heart and soul.
When your mind is at rest or softly focusing on pleasurable tasks—like gardening, exercising, washing dishes, or in those moments just before falling asleep or right after waking—it’s easier for your intuition to sense your animal friend popping by to check on you.
Listen with all of your intuitive senses
When your in-spirit pet visits, you might see a vision of them—but if that’s the only thing you're expecting, you might miss other ways they’re saying hello or sending you some love.
You might instead simply sense their presence around you. You might get an intuitive flash of a memory—from their perspective rather than your own. Or you might feel momentarily wrapped in their love.
Your intuition may also pick up on their Spirit through your non-physical senses including: hearing, touch, seeing, smelling, or tasting—with or without your physical senses being involved.
Stay grounded in the present moment
Visitations from pets who have crossed over most often happen when you're grounded and present in your body.
There's no need to go searching for them in the spirit realms. Your invitation and open heart are the perfect signal for the two of you to reconnect—even if just for a moment.
Keep your projections in check
When pets visit sometimes they feel exactly like the same as who they were when they were your animal friend. Other times, though, they may show up in ways that look or feel a little different from how you remember them.
As I understand it, after pets pass away, they continue to evolve on a soul level. Some even reincarnate and live multiple lives after living with us. When your pet pays you a visit they may want the chance to share with you, who they are today and what they’ve experienced since you last saw each other.
One thing I’m sure of, no matter what form your pet takes when they visit, their presence is always accompanied by an undeniable sense of knowing. You’ll simply know—it’s them. And the love between you is forever.
Tip: When you sense your in-spirit pet visiting you, try not to control the experience or make it last longer. Visitations can be brief, sometimes just a few seconds long. So when you do sense them, simply be with them, and feel their presence and their love
Healing after pet loss:
Animal communication for grief support
In-spirit animal communication sessions help you touch base with the Soul of your departed pet and hear about what their passing was like for them and the messages they want to share about your life together.
These sessions are tender, personal, and deeply healing.
You don’t have to be okay to reach out. Your tears are welcome here.
“I had an incredible session with Joanna shortly after the passing of my soul dog. I had never worked with an animal communicator before and Joanna absolutely blew any expectations I may have had out of the water.
The moment she connected with my beloved dog, she began telling me so much about him, his and my life together and what he wanted to communicate to me. Joanna enabled me to find the peace I needed after his passing. It was beyond comforting to know that his soul is at peace, that our deep connection was indeed understood by him as well and that he is still present in my life, watching over me and the rest of the pack.”
