Animal Hospice

Animal hospice supports the relationship between animals and their people during aging, illness and life-changing diagnoses until final days of life. As a Certified Animal Hospice Practitioner, I focus on quality of life care and maximizing comfort for the animal, while offering the pet parent emotional support as they navigate decisions, helping to make a difficult time a sacred one. 

Specifically, animal hospice provides support in: 

• Determining the best way forward regarding treatment options

• Gaining clarity on what day-to-day caretaking will look like 

• Creating a plan of care (e.g. pain medications per your veterinarian, mobility devices)

• Providing resources for complementary support (e.g. acupuncture, herbs, energy healing)

• Evaluating quality of life as their needs change

• Companioning you through grief before and after death

• Providing options for aftercare, ritual and memorials
