SERVICES AND PRICES:
Standard Consultation: The fee for a standard consultation is $95.00 for first pet, and $70 for additional pets that belong to the same owner. I will make a tape recording of my dialogue with your pet so that you can refer back to it in the future. Each tape includes my communication with your pet with recommendations and suggestions to further help the pet. Usually I receive quite a bit of information, especially if there are complex behavioral or psychological issues to be discussed or solved, or if you have many questions to ask your pet. The fee for working with a lost animal is $115.00. All emergency sessions are $125. Visits to stables, including consultation and travel time, is $115 per horse. All consultations are prepaid. I accept personal checks, money orders, Visa, and MasterCard.
PACKAGES:
The Behavioral Problems package: This package is recommended when there is a particular behavior, where you and your pet just don't seem to be understanding each. This package consists of three sessions with you and one animal. The first session helps to identify the problem and help both animal and owner recognize what needs to be modified/monitored. Next a treatment or at-home program for both owner and animal is created along with a taped transcript of the session. The program and the tape are sent to you. The second session is a check-in and progress report, finding out how the behavior is going and fine tuning anything that still needs work. The third session is a final follow-up with the owner and the animal on how things are now, any final communications between pet and owner and final recommendations from me so the progress made continues.
Cost: $225.00, a $60 savings over my regular rates
The Multiple Pets, Multiple Problems package: Sometimes there are many issues that need attention. This is true when something significant is happening as in the case of a marriage, a new baby, new members of the family as well as a house with multiple animals, or an animal that has several problems going on. This program consists of 6 sessions with you and your animal/s and monthly follow ups. This is a very customized program that can include many different aspects and phases in order to achieve lasting results. After our initial consultation, I will tailor a program that is usually multi-phased to address your particular situation. I then monitor your progress monthly until the program is complete, often over the course of a year.
Cost: $55 per month for 12 months, up to a $540 savings over my regular rates or a 1 time fee of $600.
The New Pet Package: Perfect for rescue animals, a new adoption, this is an interview with the prospective animal, then a follow-up session once the new pet has arrived home.
Cost: $170, a $20 savings off my regular prices.
The Healthy Pet, Happy Home program: This includes four sessions, one every third month, a tailor-made program for owner and pet, along with monthly follow-up emails or phone calls to 'check in' on you and your pet. This program is wonderful for both the owner and pet, facilitating closer communication, harmony and understanding between owners and their animals for a healthy pet and a happy home.
Cost: $40 per month for 12 months, up to a $150 savings over my regular prices or $420 prepaid
The Performance Program: This program is for owners of show animals. It consists of up to 6 sessions per year, scheduled to coincide with upcoming shows. This is an intense program tailored to the special needs of show animals. With my many years of communicating with both my own and client's show pets with excellent results, I am able to help identify those feeling and emotions your show animal is experiencing that can hinder their performance. Together we can help your animal overcome negative emotions to give them their best capabilities in their show.
Cost: $59 per month for 12 months, up to a $680 savings over my regular fees or $640 prepaid.
The Crossing Over package: This program will help both the pet and the pet owner through the process of saying good-bye with a follow up after the pet has passed. It consists of three sessions. The first session opens up the subject and establishes the pets needs and desires. The second session is usually just prior to the pets passing while the pet still occupies its earthly body.
The final session allows both the pet and the owner to communicate one more time after the pet's passing.
Cost: $215.00, a $70 savings over my regular rates.
Gift Certificates: Gift certificates are available year round at the above rates. If you would like to order a gift, please contact me directly to make arrangements.
Here is a testimonial from one of my clients:
"Hello Charlene,
Again I want to thank you for the compassionate insight and wonderful work you did with Max. As you recall, before I contacted you, I was at my wits end and was considering getting rid of Max because he was creating all kinds of problems for myself and my family. He was constantly growling and fighting with the other animals and he was very destructive.
Its been a month since our last session and I wanted to let you know that Max has been such a dream. I went ahead and changed the feeding area of the animals and the other changes you suggested, and even take Max out with me for short errands. And Max is happy and content and no longer growls at the other animal members of our family.
I just wanted to thank you again, from me, my family and Max!
Sincerely
JD"
