A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME 

​

​

 

Welcome to Dog Mom Holistic Therapy!

 

I’m Hailey McNichols, a certified Let Animals Lead® Reiki Level 2 practitioner and intuitive consultant with a deep passion for helping pets and their people. Animals have always been a guiding force in my life, teaching me about connection, empathy, and the healing power of nature.

 

Over the years, I’ve gained experience in animal communication, holistic therapies, and even traveling with my own dog—yes, we’ve flown together five times! I completed the “My Dog Camp” course with Rhonda Bilodeau and studied Nature Intuitive Communication under mentors like Renee Gallapos in California. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how animals reflect our lives and can guide us toward healing and balance.

 

Through Dog Mom Holistic Therapy, I create safe, compassionate spaces for you and your pet to deepen your connection and find harmony. Whether it’s through Reiki, intuitive sessions, or exploring the lessons our animal companions can teach us, my mission is to help you and your furry friend thrive together.

 

Let’s embark on this journey of healing and growth—one paw step at a time.

An intuitive consultant for dogs works by tuning into the energy and behavior of animals to gain deeper insights into their emotional and physical well-being. This practice involves using intuition to understand what a dog may be communicating nonverbally, such as stress, anxiety, or discomfort. The consultant may also look at how the dog’s behavior mirrors challenges in the owner’s life, offering guidance to help both the animal and its human better understand each other. They can provide insight into issues like behavioral problems, stress, or health concerns, but they do not diagnose medical conditions.

 

In the case of Hailey McNichols, her work as an intuitive consultant focuses on helping clients understand what their dogs may be reflecting about their lives, with an emphasis on how the bond between them offers personal insights and healing opportunities for the owner.

Let Animals Lead Reiki Practitioner

As a certified Let Animals Lead® (LAL) Reiki Level 2 practitioner, I specialize in a gentle, mindful approach to animal healing that honors each animal’s space and natural healing abilities. My sessions are non-invasive, and I work alongside animals by offering them the opportunity to participate in their healing process at their own pace. Through Reiki, I help foster a sense of peace, balance, and relaxation, which can support emotional and physical well-being. My practice is rooted in creating a safe and compassionate space where animals and their humans can connect more deeply.

Raquel , Chicago

“Hailey is really gifted… she was able to tap into my dog’s (Nala) experiences so well and knew so much about her. I felt so comfortable asking questions and talking to Hailey. It was an amazing reading and I feel like I’m more in tune with Nala now. I would definitely have another reading with Hailey in the future!!!"

Kara Robertson, Cali

"I had an Intuitive reading with Hailey McNichols and I'm so glad I did! I was worried about how my little Marshmallow was doing and she gave me feedback that rang so true and really made me feel comfortable and at ease with her meaningful input. Hailey truly has a gift and I'm so thankful for the information she provided to me! "

Renee, Ca

““Dog Mom To The Rescue” is the person that you want to communicate with or care for your animal companions.  Hailey is kind and knowing and has a quirky playfulness about her that the animals respond to, they just love being around her.  She listens intuitively to their needs and fearlessly shares to pet owners what their animal companions want them to know.  She took my animal communication class in early 2023 and immediately I recognized her natural ability to intuitively connect.  She bridged a connection with one of my cats and he told her his favorite toy and where to find it. I was awed because this was only her first time in class, now that’s pretty impressive!  I highly recommend Hailey for your dog walking, cat care or animal communication needs!  -  Renee Gallegos, Animal Communicator.”

Dog  socializations: Boo and  Fox  

I have worked with Hailey many times, with my dogs Fox and Boo. I have also worked with her with my mom's dog Luna. She is knowledgeable, competent, trustworthy, and caring. She has a pace that animals really respond to - she takes her time, she's never in a hurry. In fact, it seems to me she takes as much time as she needs in order for the dog to understand her point, which sometimes is a while! It yields amazing results. 

 

With Luna, she taught me a bunch of really helpful techniques for impulse control. I got results immediately after trying her recommendations.

 

For my dogs Fox and Boo, we've worked really hard on socialization. We are using a more long-term approach, and Hailey has been so patient. I have definitely seen results with my unsocialized rescues.

 

I wholeheartedly recommend Hailey both as a dog walker and dog trainer.  I'm so grateful for her patience and willingness to share her time and knowledge.

Pack Walk, Tim and Buster

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Hailey is as a pet care provider. She was the first dog walker, after a string of very good dog walkers, who could successfully walk my very complicated pup, Buster. He was aggressive towards anyone who entered my home without my presence. Hailey patiently waited it out with him until she was able to get him out the door and on a great walk. This brought me peace of mind knowing that both Tim and Buster were getting their daily walks while I was at work.

Hailey is a true professional. She has studied many knowledgeable trainers and employs the most loving and positive techniques in her own practice. She communicates any important observations about your pet’s behavior and health. Honestly, she is like a Doctor Doolittle of sorts. She pays attention to the animals in every way. And, she loves them. Your pet is in such great hands with Hailey. Tim and Buster absolutely love her!

A.Leigh , Cat  parent

I'm very happy with the care Hailey provides for my 3 demanding cats. She goes above and beyond to make sure they get not just the basics, but lots of love and playtime as well! She sends pictures of happy cats and always checks in with any questions or concerns. My kitties love her, and I highly recommended her services!

Link , Cat sitting


I love having Hailey care for our cat when we are out of town.  She has even stepped in to help while we were fostering a shy chinchilla.  From the pictures she sends me, I can tell the pets love her visits!  Hailey is very dependable and has jumped in at a moment's notice. It is great peace of mind to know that the fur babies are well cared for while I am gone.  The cat probably doesn't even miss me!
