You may find that every animal communicator works differently and has his or her own rituals and fee system. I have worked to make mine as effective and convenient as possible in terms of how well I can "get" the animal and limiting extra "dead time" on the telephone while I relay questions to the animal(s) and receive answers.

In order to do an animal communication, I request that you contact me and tell me your full name, location and contact information. Please send me a photo of the animal(s) through e-mail or regular post, along with a brief description (age, sex, name, anything else you want me to know) and a list of questions and issues you'd like to address. You can start small, with questions like "what is your favourite color," and move on to anything from "why are you balking on the agility course" to "are you in pain" to "what is your philosophy of life?" A photo is not always necessary, but I find it helps me to focus. If you can’t send one, I will try with a good description from you. If you do send me a photo and do want it back I can always return it to you.

You may use the consultation to contact multiple animals, living or passed away. I only ask that you limit your contacts to animals you have met. Please note that contacting animals who feel their human companions would not approve is not advised and will not often end with satisfying results. In the case of stray or wild animals, contact can usually be made, although they may take more coaxing for specific information.

Generally, I will then contact the animal(s), and we can set an appointment for you to call me to discuss the animal or arrange another method of contact, such as e-mail. I will tell you everything I received from them and you may add comments or more questions as you wish. In the case of health or emotional problems, I will also send you and your pet Reiki for free as part of the consultation.

My standard fees are $25 per 15 minutes of consultation (no smaller increments of time are available). The length of consultations varies depending on the personality and number of animals and humans involved, the number and depth of questions and so on. I have had quick check-ins that last under 20 minutes and sessions ranging up to an hour and a half. I would estimate, however, that the standard consultation is about 30 - 60 minutes.

Due to my schedule and the proven efficacy of telephone communication, I do not generally do in-person consultations. Please understand that phone consultations are generally just as effective - and often more effective - than visits, due to many pets' reservations around strangers in their territory. If you want to book in-person visit, there are extra fees, so please contact me with details, and we will discuss your options.

Gift certificates are available for pre-paid amounts. They may be mailed to the recipient or to the giver. Time over the pre-paid amount may be billed at the usual rate to the giver or recipient as the giver arranges beforehand.
