For the Love of Dogs Owner, Janet Vera is Reiki certified and has used Reiki as a safe compliment to Western medicine on her animals for over ten years. Animals intuitively recognize its ability to heal and welcome its effective yet gentle way to provide comfort, relieve pain, fear and anxiety and to ease transitions. Positive results are seen in a very short period of time.
We are knowledgeable, reliable, and invested in creating a loving bond with your pet. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet will be getting exercise, playtime and quality attention while you're away. All basic service includes complimentary mail retrieval, plant watering, light altering and basic grooming.
Janet's previous career was as an owner of a retail gift store for 8 years. "I enjoyed customers and the business itself but based on my love of animals I made a major life decision to switch careers to spend my days doing what brings me the most joy. I'm finally in the right profession!" she says. Janet is the proud mom of 2 rescue dogs "Dixie" and "Howard", otherwise known as the "Dynamic Duo".
For the Love of Dogs is fully insured, First Aid trained and has excellent references available upon request.
"I absolutely attribute Belle’s transformation to Janet’s Reiki treatments and play dates. Every time Janet has been over, Belle will be waiting for me out in the open rather than hiding behind the couch!"
Queen Belle is a retired blood donor cat from the Boston Cat Hospital that enjoys weekly Reiki treatments.
