About Us

Welcome to Memorable Pets and Believable Babies!

                      

           The Three of Us in 2010                Mom in the 1950's, Washington, DC

We are sisters who are passionate about making a difference in people's lives who are living with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.

Our mother, Betty Dickson, passed away on February 15, 2011 from Alzheimer’s disease at the age of 88. Caldonia, her Memorable Pet, was deeply loved by her and was in her arms when she passed. In our mother’s honor, and with an effort to help improve the lives of people with Alzheimer’s and age-related dementia, we founded our company, Memorable Pets, LLC. Stuffed animals  and baby dolls for Alzheimer’s patients is proven to be an enormous benefit for those in mid-late stages of the disease where age-related regression occurs.

The Mission of Memorable Pets is Simple

Educate + Service = Value  + Pay Forward = Memorable Pets, llc
