“Kahu,” a Hawaiian word for “pet owner,” also carries a deeper meaning: guardian, protector, steward, and honored attendant. A Kahu doesn’t just care for a pet — they safeguard a piece of their soul. That sacred relationship defines who I am. My brand isn’t a business—it’s an extension of that calling.

As a certified professional canine nutritionist, aspiring canine herbalist, intuitive canine massage practitioner, and pastoral counselor for humans, I serve as your concierge — a trusted partner in holistic canine wellness for all, including those with limited financial resources.

KAHU offers personalized, concierge-style care rooted in holistic principles—blending nutrition, herbs, stress reduction, and compassionate guidance and counseling. Whether you're navigating chronic conditions or simply seeking radiant wellness, I connect you with trusted experts, curated resources, and customized wellness pathways.

Because your dog deserves more than “fine.” They deserve a life of balance, vitality, and brilliance.

At KAHU Canine Holistic Concierge, this isn’t just a service — it’s a soul calling. I care for dogs and the humans who love them. Here’s what makes this work unique:

🐾 Whole-Being Support for Dogs
Your dog’s wellness is nurtured through a thoughtful blend of Eastern and Western holistic traditions — including energetics, intuitive care, and nutritional insight. Every plan is personalized, never one-size-fits-all.
💞 Emotional Support for YOU, Too
Because your dog’s journey affects your heart. As a pastoral counselor, I hold space for your emotions, stress, and hope — offering clarity, reassurance, and compassionate guidance.
🌿 A Holistic Bond
Healing doesn’t happen in isolation. I care for your bond, your rhythms, your shared energy. When both of you thrive, healing becomes sacred.
✨ Integrity + Resourcefulness
I help connect you with the best experts when needed — and if premium care isn’t financially accessible, I offer thoughtful alternatives and healing ideas to keep your dog’s wellness journey moving forward with love and integrity.
💗 Access + Respect
I honor your financial reality. Healing should never be out of reach. You’ll receive thoughtful, nonjudgmental support — whether you’re just beginning or already deep in the journey.
🌸 Lived Wisdom + Spiritual Lineage
My intuitive skills come from a deeply holistic upbringing and a lifetime of spiritual care. This is more than technique — it’s sacred care rooted in presence, authenticity, and love.

Renowned herbalist Greg Tilford once said, “We don’t know what wellness looks like.”
I didn’t either.

When I began my holistic journey with my girls, I truly believed they were healthy. But through the generosity and insight of holistic mentors, I slowly realized… they weren’t. Not even close. My older girl, in particular, was quietly suffering—aging far too quickly. Looking back, I see the denial. And I carried the weight of that guilt.

Honestly, my journey started from that guilt.

But something unexpected happened.

My girls didn’t just heal—they began to glow. There was a lightness, a vibrancy that grew with every season. As we embraced deeper wellness through seasonal support—using phytoembryonic therapy, flower essences, and whole, nourishing food—they radiated joy.

And people noticed.
On our walks, strangers began stopping their cars to compliment them. Some even called out, “Oh my God, they’re glowing!”
They weren’t just healthy… they were vibrant. Magnetic.

That’s when I realized:
Wellness isn’t a finish line. It’s infinite.

Wouldn’t you love to see your dog get brighter, and brighter, and brighter still?
There’s nothing like witnessing the radiant energy shining from a beloved dog who feels deeply well—body, mind, and spirit.

✨ If you’re ready to go beyond healing…
If you're curious about the next frontier of wellness…

I’d be honored to walk that path with you.

✨Entwined with Dogness — a journey rooted in spirit and grown through healing ✨

Since I was a little girl, I’ve shared a bond with dogs so deep it felt woven into my very being. Though I wasn’t allowed to have one growing up until I was 15, I read every dog book I could find, dreaming of the day I’d sit on a front porch—with my own dog by my side. Once that dream became real, dogs became part of my daily life, shaping me in ways no book ever could. That love, once quiet and waiting, became a lifelong devotion.
I was raised with traditional Eastern healing and spirituality. My mother, the daughter of a Buddhist monk, filled our home with ancient wisdom and a deep reverence for nature. Healing came from the earth—not from the pharmacy. I spent my childhood in quiet communion with the woods between city buildings, connecting with Nature and her Creator long before I had words for it.
Later in life, I began studying holistic healing for my own dogs. At first, I thought they were healthy. But the deeper I went, the more I realized they were subtly struggling. That painful realization sent me on a mission. I became a Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist and immersed myself in gentle, effective modalities—including plant stem cell therapy and flower essences. The teachings of Rita Hogan in particular reshaped my understanding of true wellness and energetics.
I now specialize in nutrition strategies that bridge both standard-based and ratio-based feeding methods, tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I offer practical, soul-rooted wellness that combines science with energetics—because our dogs deserve more than “not sick.” They deserve radiance.
I founded KAHU to make that radiance accessible—not just for dogs with clear symptoms or wealthy guardians, but for every dog. Every guardian. Every sacred bond.

KAHU is not a job. It’s a calling.

It’s who I’ve always been.
