Personalized Canine & Feline Nutrition Consultation - Nationwide

Verified Member since Sep 2026 Verified checkmark

Every dog is different — and their nutrition should be too.

I’m a Clinical Pet Nutritionist and founder of BowlWise™, with more than 500 hours of education in canine nutrition and over 20 years of hands-on experience feeding fresh, whole-food diets.

I provide private, one-on-one nutrition consultations for dog parents who want clear, practical guidance tailored to their individual dog. Whether you're transitioning away from highly processed food, preparing fresh food at home, trying to improve an existing diet, or struggling to determine which foods work best for your dog, I'll help you make sense of the options.

Consultations can include:

• Fresh and home-prepared feeding
• Transitioning from kibble to fresh food
• Reviewing and improving an existing diet
• Protein and ingredient selection
• Digestive and food-tolerance concerns
• Elimination-diet strategies
• Weight and life-stage considerations
• Making fresh feeding practical and affordable
• Understanding ingredients and what is actually going into your dog's bowl

My approach is based on the dog in front of me — their history, current diet, lifestyle, individual needs and your goals as their caregiver.

Before founding BowlWise, I developed fresh canine food products through Chow Hound Bistro, including formulations that underwent Florida Department of Agriculture feed-label review and approval.

My goal is simple: take the confusion out of feeding your dog and give you a clear, practical strategy you can actually use.

Virtual consultations are available nationwide.
