Empower the stewardship of you and your dog
Grooming, pack hikes, sound baths, and retreats rooted in nervous system regulation and the quiet bond between you and your companion animal.
Care for the whole companion, and for you
Shanti and Me brings together grooming, movement in nature, and sound so your dog feels safe and regulated, and so you feel it too. Everything I offer honors the animal in front of me and the person beside them.

Learn moreHikes that settle the nervous system

- River outings, enrichment, and calm impulse work

Small acts of stewardship, repeated daily
Stewardship is not a grand gesture. It is the quiet, consistent practice of caring for another being well, reading their signals, protecting their calm, and meeting them where they are.
Every service I offer is built on that idea. Whether it is a groom, a hike, or a sound bath, the goal is the same: a regulated nervous system, a deeper bond, and an animal who feels genuinely safe with the people who love them.
Real training behind every session
My work is grounded in formal certification across nature-informed therapy, energy work, and movement, so the care you and your dog receive is intentional and skilled.
Simple to start, gentle throughout

We meet where you are
Whether it is a hike, a groom, or a sound bath, I meet your companion animal at their pace, never rushed.
You both feel it
Calmer dogs, a steadier bond, and a nervous system that has had room to settle.
Gather with the pack
Beyond one-on-one work, I host gatherings throughout the year: pack meetups, rattlesnake diversion training, spirit circles, and seasonal events that bring stewards and their dogs together in nature.
