Doggy Doula & Whelping Support

I provide compassionate, hands-on support for expecting dams and their owners through pregnancy, whelping, and the postpartum period.

As a veterinary assistant and experienced breeder, my role as a doggy doula is to bring calm, education, and confidence into one of the most vulnerable moments of your dog’s life. You don’t have to navigate this alone, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

My Story

My journey into doggy doula work began through hands-on experience in both veterinary medicine and dog breeding. I’ve supported dams through pregnancy, labor, and postpartum recovery, and I’ve seen firsthand how overwhelming and emotional the whelping process can be.

I created this service to bridge the gap between veterinary care and at-home support. My approach prioritizes comfort over panic, education over fear, and gentle guidance without judgment. Whether you’re a first-time breeder or simply want added support during whelping, my goal is to help you feel prepared, supported, and confident.

Every birth is different, and every dam deserves calm, knowledgeable care tailored to her needs.
