Pet Nutrition & Holistic Care - Nationwide

Verified Member since Feb 2026 Verified checkmark

I offer holistic pet health coaching for guardians who want to address the root causes of their pet’s issue's. My work focuses on supporting the body’s natural ability to heal through individualized nutrition guidance, detox support, and lifestyle changes.

I take time to understand your pet’s history, current symptoms, diet, stressors, and living conditions so recommendations are tailored, realistic, and sustainable. Common areas of support include digestive issues, skin and allergy concerns, chronic inflammation, immune imbalances, senior pet care, and behavior changes linked to health.

My role is not to replace veterinary care, but to educate, guide, and support you so you can confidently advocate for your pet. I help you explore supportive holistic options and make decisions that feel aligned, informed, and practical.

Coaching includes education on supplements, herbs, homeopathy, dental care, enrichment, and natural preventative strategies that support lifelong wellness. This is an educational and collaborative process designed to empower you with knowledge and tools to make informed decisions for your pets.

Holistic pet health coaching works alongside veterinary care to bridge gaps and support long-term vitality. My goal is to to help guardians feel informed, and supported every step of the way.
