Certified Holistic Pet Health Coach - Nationwide

Verified Member since May 2025 Verified checkmark

Is your pet struggling with chronic diarrhea, itching, ear infections, or low energy—despite trying different foods or medications?

I help pet parents uncover the root cause of their dog or cat’s health issues so they can stop guessing and start seeing real, lasting improvement.

As a Certified Holistic Pet Health Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, I look beyond symptoms to identify underlying imbalances—especially in the gut.

My approach considers the full picture:
*Nutrition (as one piece of the puzzle)
*Gut health and microbiome balance
*Environmental stressors and toxin load
*Lifestyle factors impacting long-term health

I specialize in working with pets who have:
*Chronic digestive issues (diarrhea, vomiting, IBD)
*Skin issues (itching, licking, ear infections)
*Food sensitivities or intolerances
*Low energy or ongoing inflammation

Many of my clients come to me after trying multiple foods, medications, or approaches without lasting results.

This is not a quick-fix or one-size-fits-all approach.

Together, we take a deeper look at your pet’s history and create a personalized, step-by-step plan designed to support healing from the inside out.

Please Note:
While I provide guidance around nutrition, my work is not limited to diet alone. I do not provide advanced diet formulation or prescription-level nutrition plans.

If your pet requires a highly specialized or therapeutic diet formulation, I may recommend working alongside a veterinary nutritionist.

My work is rooted in both professional training and a deep commitment to helping pet parents feel confident and supported.

I focus on education, practical steps, and sustainable changes—so you can advocate for your pet’s health with clarity.

If you’re ready to stop guessing and start understanding what your pet truly needs, I’d love to support you.

Personalized Pet Health Foundations | Includes Sensitivity Testing (Dogs & Cats)
$ 497.00 Per Animal book

A personalized, proactive program that uses sensitivity testing to help you choose the right foods and avoid common triggers—so you can support your pet’s health before chronic issues develop.

Many pet parents don’t realize that everyday foods and environmental exposures can quietly contribute to digestive issues, skin problems, and inflammation over time.

This program is designed to take the guesswork out of what your pet should and shouldn’t be exposed to—so you can support their health before chronic issues develop.

Using sensitivity testing alongside a holistic, root-cause approach, I help you understand how your pet is responding to different foods and environmental factors, and how to make confident, supportive choices moving forward.

In this program, we’ll cover:

• Identifying potential food and environmental sensitivities
• Supporting gut health and reducing inflammatory triggers
• Building a nutrition approach that works for your pet
• Simple, sustainable changes that support long-term wellness

✔ Sensitivity test kit (shipped directly to you)
✔ Professional review and interpretation of results
✔ 60-minute initial consultation
✔ Personalized food and lifestyle guidance
✔ 2 follow-up sessions (30 minutes each)
✔ Ongoing support during the program

This program is a great fit if:

You want to be proactive and avoid future health issues
You’re unsure which foods are best for your pet
Your pet has mild sensitivities or early warning signs
You want a personalized approach instead of guessing

Please Note:
This program is designed for prevention and foundational support. It is not intended for pets with complex or advanced medical conditions.

If your pet is experiencing significant or ongoing health issues, a more in-depth program or veterinary support may be recommended.

My approach is practical, honest, and focused on helping you make informed decisions without overwhelm.

Rather than relying on trial and error, this program gives you clear direction based on your pet’s individual responses and needs.

If you’re ready to take a proactive, personalized approach to your pet’s health, I’d love to support you.
