Heartful Canine

Holistic Wellbeing



Welcome to Heartful Canine, where emotional wellbeing meets holistic care.I’m Katherine, a holistic veterinary nurse with a degree in canine behaviour, and a diploma in canine nutrition - and over two decades of experience supporting guardians and their canine companions.At Heartful Canine, I offer a gentle, compassionate space where emotional wellbeing is held at the heart of healing. Guided by empathy and intuition, I support both canine companions and their guardians to restore emotional balance and deepen their connection - allowing healing to unfold naturally, held in trust and emotional safety.A dog’s body and behaviour often reflect their emotional wellbeing, expressing imbalance and offering heartfelt messages that invite our understanding, presence, and care.Through challenges with their skin, digestion, appetite, or behaviour, your canine companion may be expressing an emotional imbalance that is longing to be supported.Whether your companion’s emotional imbalance is expressed through their body or behaviour, I’m here to help.
