Animal Doula

I worked with Michelle during a time when my beloved senior kitty was possibly needing to be put down. This is heartbreaking for anyone, and I was so conflicted.

Michelle had so many great recommendations, resources, and suggestions. Things I hadn’t thought of and holistic options that my vet never discussed. She guided me step by step as to what to look for when he was ready to go, with patience and kindness.

After working with her, I feel more able to focus on my grief without as much uncertainty about the time he has left. Her great compassion for animals and empathy for their people is truly a gift. She cares a great deal about you and your dear pets, and the process you’re going through.

She also brought up some really good elements to add to the ceremonies and rituals my family has to honor our pets. It was incredibly thoughtful and moving. I was really impressed and thankful for her follow-up support, just checking in to see how my baby was doing. That in itself is a blessing.

Thank you again, Michelle for the work you do! Should your beloved four-legged family member be making that journey toward the rainbow bridge, I absolutely recommend working with her. She has a true gift, and as a spiritual visor in a human niche, I don’t sat that lightly.–Heidi B.J. Feb 2023
