Compassionate non-medical support 

for pet owners and their pets. 

What is a Companion Animal Doula?

A Companion Animal Doula provides non-medical emotional, spiritual, practical, and informational support to pet owners and their pets throughout all life stages.  From future planning to end-of-life transitions, a doula offers compassionate guidance, ensuring peace and care for both you and your beloved companion. 

Tenets of Companion Animal Doula Care

  • Accept that death and dying are a normal part of life.
  • Companion rather than treat.
  • Understand common end-of-life trajectories in companion animals and helpful interventions to ease physical and emotional suffering.
  • Provide non-medical, nonjudgmental emotional/spiritual support.
  • Promote informed consent for each client.
  • Help gather relevant information and connect clients to beneficial resources.
  • Work in harmony with a client and companion animal’s chosen care team.
  • Support clients in developing end-of-life wishes and after-death care, including memorializing the enduring bond between clients and their pets.
  • Trust in the inherent wisdom of each person to decide and discover his or her own best path.
  • Empower and encourage a client’s friends and family members to operate within their comfort zones; fill-in support gaps as they arise.
  • Nurture a compassionate, calm presence and environment during euthanasia or natural pet death, if requested.
  • Recognize and support anticipatory grief, mourning, and bereavement, and identify and address complicated pet loss.

Mission
To companion pet families and care professionals with compassion—encouraging advance care planning, nurturing peace of mind, and supporting the tender conversations that arise at life’s end.


Vision
I envision a compassionate world where every pet is honored with dignity, families are comforted by thoughtful planning, and veterinary and animal care professionals are supported in the tender work they do. Together, we create spaces where love, care, and presence guide the hardest goodbyes.
