For the past 30 years I have been a champion of animal protection, a professional animal care specialist, and an international animal rescuer with a background in holistic pet care. Since 2003, Royal Pets Petsitting services has been providing Exceptional Holistic care. Aside from exercise, feeding, grooming, I provide comprehensive holistic care and wellness education. My motto is “We treat your pets like Royalty because they deserve the Royal Pampering.”
The mission is to restore our original Harmony and deep Connection between nature and humans. This is achieved through providing holistic wellness care services.
Services include:
- exercise (walks, fun adventures, nature forest bathing, socializing in groups with dogs and humans)
- home visits for cat care
- overnights in pet's home so they feel comfortable and safe (less disturbing to their mental and emotional wellbeing)
- Holistic pet care lifestyle education and animal behavior education
-medication giving
- Emotional Support Animal training and certification (I am also a medical professional)
- Resources ( I have a background in social work so very knowledgeable about resources)
What Makes A Difference:
- photos and videos and written notes from each visit with wellness and safety details for emotional/mental, physical wellbeing
- Compassion based care
- I do not charge extra rate for holidays or puppies or medication or grooming. Only for multiple pets
- I provide a sliding scale fee for those with financial need, low income or with many pets. I want to honor humans who are Compassionate and rescue animals who would otherwise be homeless or euthanized. My value is Compassionate Care so I make my services accessible.
Specialized Care for:
- Pets with a history of abuse or trauma
- Shy and anxious temperaments
- International Rescued dogs
- Hospice, chronically ill, or has medical condition
- Misunderstood behaviors label
- Geriatric older pets

About Me and my Approach to Petcare:
Animal Whisperer:
My personal story of how I became an animal whisperer begins with my own petchildren. I would be happy to tell you how I rescued ESA extraordinaire Snoopy from the Andamans Islands. But Summer, my eldest petchild trained me to be an Animal Whisperer so I could be a better caretaker for her. I rescued her from a euthanasia list by “a mistaken record,” but later I learned she was a truly “unadoptable” pet due to her severe Post Traumatic Stress disorder symptoms. She always hid underneath covers and never moved. I had to learn how to "speak Dog" to connect with my autistic petchild who never engaged with the world. She was my greatest teacher about Love because she was so vulnerable.
Animal Rescue:
I volunteered for the SPCA Feral Cat Team TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) program sterilizing and socializing feral cats and finding homes for them. I focus on helping India with their spay/neuter and medical care for street dogs. I coordinated TNR in rural villages and in the Andaman Islands, where my dog is from. I coordinated animal rescue for several natural disasters.
Holistic Care: What is it?
Holistic Care is about being attuned to the individual needs of each animal. I have 25 years of experience as a Wellness Professional. I help humans and animals to Thrive with healthy lifestyle, harmonious relationships and spiritual wellbeing. I attune to each individual animal’s needs through my honed Animal Whispering skills.
Describe a typical day:
My motto is Royal Pampering to all pets because they are Royal and deserve to be treated like Royalty.
For dogs: adventure excursions. They want stimulation so I take them to places where they can sniff lots of animals scents like trails and beaches, as well as socializing and mingling with humans and their pets. I call it Doggy Day Camp. For geriatric or dogs with illness, I provide tender loving soothing care from my toolkit of somatic and wellness modalities.
Dogs need lots of touch to soothe and meet their emotional needs, so I massage the body, talk with them in two way conversations and engage them in letting me know what they want to do. I play with them at home with their toys, run around and make sure they have excitement and fun at home too. Then we snuggle up in cozy blanket together and I stroke them while I read a book. During holidays, we watch the tv shows on Animal Planet featuring pets(Pet TV)
Cats: Lots of exercise with toys, brushing, cuddling and more playing. They appear to be easy, low maintenance, bored and sleep a lot, but that is partly because they need stimulation.
