In this episode, Nikki interviews Amy Williams DeLong about supporting our pets and animals with aromatherapy.

Amy DeLong is a Holistic Pet Care expert, certified animal aromatherapist, and instructor of Animal Aromatherapy

In her private practice, Amy helps pet parents find holistic solutions that help their animal friends live the best life possible, including teaching pet parents how to use essential oils safely while giving pets a choice in selecting aromatics.

In addition, Amy brings unique insights into supporting animals holistically through her work as an animal communicator, intuitive energy healer, and Tellington TTouch® practitioner, and other holistic modalities. Amy has supported hundreds of pet parents over the years, partnered with holistic veterinarians, and served as a Veterinary Assistant at wellness clinics on Indian/First Nations reserves.

Amy is also dedicated to helping animals without devoted pet parents by supporting rescues, fostering, and transforming the lives of starved, neglected, and literally mangy mutts.
