Join us in celebrating National Pet Memorial Day, Sunday, September 8th. This free event is to honor and celebrate pets that have passed away. Bubble favors, snacks and refreshments will be provided. Pet memorial ideas will be on display and free informational handouts will be available. Pets welcome in grassy areas. Per the City of Negaunee, pets are not allowed in the pavilion, on playground equipment, volleyball or basketball courts, they must be on 6ft leash and cleaned up after.
I am officially a Companion Animal End-of-Life Doula. What is a Companion Animal End-of-Life Doula, you ask?
A companion animal end-of-life doula, also known as a pet death doula, provides non-medical, emotional, spiritual, and informational support to people who are grieving the loss of a pet. They can help with the decision to euthanize a pet, and may help owners decide where to have the procedure done. Doulas can also help owners process their grief and emotions. They take a holistic approach to care, considering the physical and emotional needs of both the pet and its owner. They may also help with legacy projects and respite care for family members.
New services related to this will be coming soon. If you have questions about these new, upcoming services, please give me a call at (231)715-6914 or email me at [email protected]
Always continuing to learn and add new skills to assist clients with their pet's end-of-life journey. I should be finished with this certificate by mid-August and will be offering new services based on this by the end of August or beginning of September. Stayed tuned!
In the meantime, if you need any other mobile pet care services, please give me a call at (231)715-6914.

Stopped at Contrast Coffee in Negaunee for breakfast a Chai latte and to work on some paper work. I got my latte and this is what I see. Appropriately,see a curled up dog.
What do you see?
Sunday morning reflections with a cup of coffee and a heart full of purpose.
Picture a peaceful moment with your beloved pet snuggled close, creating a final, cherished memory. No fear, just acceptance. You planned a goodbye filled with love, ensuring their comfort and your own as they cross The Rainbow Bridge.
Though facing a pet's end can be difficult, empowering yourself with knowledge and support is possible.
That's why Jessi is passionately pursuing the Pet Loss & Grief Companioning Certification through Two Hearts Pet Loss Center (led by the amazing Coleen Ellis ). This will equip her to guide you through this sensitive journey with compassion and expertise.

This is Trixie. She is looking for a new home that can help with her special needs. She is 3-4 year old spayed female tortoiseshell domestic shorthaired cat. She is microchipped but not up to date on vaccines. She is good with respectful kids, scared of dogs and unsure how she is with other cats as to the owners knowledge Trixie hasn't been around other cats.
Trixie has significant stomatitis which is a painful dental disease that affects about 10% of cats and she is need of some major dental work. Her current mom says Trixie is the sweetest cat but she is unable to afford the dental care that Trixie so desperately needs so she is hoping that someone else has the means to adopt her and take care of her dental work.

Pet memorialization doesn't always have to be after a pet's journey in life with you has ended. You can memorialize your pet for any number of reasons; for a brand new puppy, kitten or other species pet to celebrating a milestone to gifting an item to that college student or new military member that has moved away. If you are looking for a personalized pet memorial item, get them locally here in Negaunee, Michigan!

Last Call for submissions for our photo contest!!! You have until 11:59pm tonight to submit your photos!! Please spread the word to get more submissions.
Does this gal look familiar to you? She was my partner in crime for the UPAWS Celebrity Kennel Lock-up a little over a year ago. She is the sweetest thing! I can only imagine that her medical needs and need to be an only cat in the household are making potential adopters hesitant to adopt her. But let me tell you, her medical needs are not difficult to handle. In fact, if you adopt Kuma Kali and aren't sure that you will be able to give her her medications, I will come to your home to help show you how you can do it with ease, FREE OF CHARGE!
**ADOPTED**
Calling all Cat Lovers - Kuma Kali is a cat that needs you the most!
Kuma Kali is a special girl! She is extremely loving and enjoys being brushed or even just a good head scritch. She loves sitting in her window seat and either napping the day away or watching the birds, she enjoys just being entertained!
Kuma Kali is a long term stay with UPAWS and sadly has been in a foster home for over 4 months now. We understand that sometimes cats with special needs can be overlooked or viewed as more work than another, but; Kuma Kali is special in more ways than one! It is far past time for her to find her furever home. You see, her foster mom has other cats, and Kuma Kali is living in a separate room due to not liking other cats. She longs for her own home with just the right person where she can be the sole center of attention. She prefers to be your one and only!
Kuma Kali needs a home with someone who is patient, able to understand her medical needs and provide the consistent care she requires. Kuma Kali must maintain a regular diet of wet and dry food and she is on twice daily medications. Caring for her is a small price to pay in exchange for all the love and joy she will give you!
In every other way, Kuma Kali is fun, loving, and a little mischievous! If you are willing to put in that little extra effort, you will be rewarded with many purrs and requests for cuddles!! Please share!
Contact us today for more information and to arrange a meet & greet! Phone 906/475/6661 or email [email protected].

Hey Guys!! We have 12 days left until submissions for the contest are closed. Last time we had a photo contest, we had nearly 40 submissions. Can we we beat that this time?! Lets get some more submissions on here!
Check out our updated services section!
Did you know, according to AAHA, the American Animal Hospital Association, 44% of the pet population in the U.S. is considered to be seniors.
Sadly, a majority of cats and just under half of dogs don't have any medical care in the 12 months prior to their euthanasia. There is so much help in terms of tips and tricks, medication, supplements, diets and tools to alter the environments so that dogs and cats have a much more comfortable, enriched end of life. As the first and only veterinary professional certified in animal hospice and end of life care in the Upper Peninsula, I can help partner with you to navigate these important issues. Call to schedule an appointment to talk about your senior pet's care (231)715-6914.
Don't forget to enter our photo contest!! We have only had a few submissions and would love to see more. Follow the information below to enter!
As a follow-up to the 7 lesser-known reasons to hire a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) to provide pet care in your home, it is important to understand the limitations to what I can provide.
I am NOT a replacement for your veterinarian. I bridge the care between your veterinarian and the care you provide at home. I am an extension of your veterinarian's care. I provide additional support, education and guidance needed for your pet's care, especially when it comes to end-of-life care. I legally CANNOT diagnose, prescribe, perform surgery or independently euthanize a pet. Those services all need to be performed by your veterinarian (who also happens to be licensed to practice and is required to attend continuing education to maintain their license too).
I am NOT groomer. I can trim up hair for medical reasons or to tidy up between your normal grooming appointments. Please note that these types of trims are for functionality and not for aesthetics (in other words, it may not be pretty). Your groomer is trained to make your pet clean, comfortable AND pretty. I am happy to leave the "pretty" part to them.
