About Gravesite Caregiving

Do you live too far away to visit a loved one’s gravesite? Is it difficult for you to visit the cemetery due to mobility issues? Does your schedule leave barely enough time for the living, let alone your loved ones who’ve passed on?

If you would like assistance in caring for your loved one’s grave, please consider TheCemeteryClub.com’s Gravesite Caregiver services. Allow us to be your surrogate assistant in tending the final resting place of your dearly departed.

Services may include:
- Flowers (artificial or fresh cut)
- Small token (stone placed on grave or small purchased item, such as an angel, animal statue, whirly gig, solar light, seasonal item) -
- Basic cleaning of stone or monument (with water and a natural bristle brush)
- Removal of trash, weeds, sticks, mud, bird droppings, old items, etc.
- Gravestone rubbing (if allowed in cemetery and if the monument is in solid condition)
- Provide photos of the gravesite
- Prayers given or messages read

What we will not do:
- Monument repairs (I am not qualified, but I will do my best to connect you to someone who is)
- Use chemicals to clean a monument (products with chemicals, including soap, can damage a monument if not used properly; again, I leave deep cleaning to the experts)
- Go against a cemetery’s regulations
