Pippa's Way: Holistic Pet Health Coaching & Nutrition

By Elaina Stanley | Certified Pet Nutritionist & Holistic Pet Health Coach

My Story

Every great journey starts somewhere personal. Mine started with a dog named Pippa.

Pippa Marie is my 11-year-old Labrador and the heartbeat behind everything I do. When Pippa was diagnosed with spondylosis, I found myself in the same overwhelming place so many pet parents find themselves. Sitting across from a veterinarian, hearing a diagnosis, and wondering: Is there more I can do? Are there gentler options? Where do I even start?

I dove into research. I pursued education. I became certified as a Holistic Pet Health Coach through Dr. Ruth's program, along with my certifications as a Certified Pet Nutritionist and Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist. What I discovered changed Pippa's life, and it became the foundation of Pippa's Way.

Today, Pippa thrives. Now I help other pet parents find their way to the same kind of hope, clarity, and results.

What Is Pippa's Way?

Pippa's Way is a personalized holistic pet health coaching and nutrition service for pet parents who are ready to explore natural, root-cause approaches to their pet's health challenges. I serve as the bridge between veterinary science and practical, everyday implementation. I work alongside your vet to give you the knowledge, tools, and confidence to support your pet's healing at home.

Who I Help

I work with pet parents whose dogs are navigating challenges like:
• Allergies and chronic skin issues
• Gut health problems and IBD
• Immune system dysfunction
• Kidney and liver disease
• Joint issues and mobility challenges
• Weight management
• Cancer support
• Other complex or chronic conditions

If your dog has been on medications for a long time and you're wondering if there's another way, you're exactly who I'm here for.

My Approach

Everything at Pippa's Way is customized to your dog specifically. My approach draws on food therapy, herbal therapy and supplements, gut health and immune support, Glacier Peak sensitivity testing, and a collaborative partnership with your veterinarian. I explain the "why" behind every recommendation so you feel confident, not just compliant.

What Working Together Looks Like

We start with a thorough intake consultation to understand your dog's full health history, current symptoms, diet, and your goals. From there, I design a personalized protocol and we work together through a minimum of six one-on-one sessions. We assess progress, adjust as needed, and I stay by your side every step of the way. You are never alone in this process.

What Pet Parents Are Saying

"When our dog Teddy was diagnosed with IBD, we felt lost. Working with Elaina changed everything. Through her guidance with diet changes and natural support, Teddy gained back his health and vitality. Even after an unexpected surgery, her continued support helped us maintain his progress. She gave us both the knowledge and confidence we needed."
— Teddy's Family
