Learn Animal Massage in Virtual Class: “BYOD” means Bring Your Own Dog!
Live, in-person-to-person-to-dog classes temporarily suspended due to COVID-19
However, you can sign up for a virtual class: one-to-one-to-one online trainings (just you, your dog & TranquilPET!)
Massage is ideal for dogs at every stage of their lives ….and here are 5 reasons:
- relaxing (the same benefits you receive from a massage!)
- ease the effects of aging
- decrease emotional issues due to trauma, anxiety, fear
- help manage pain
- bond more closely with your dog
Watching your animal move and the way they respond to your touch provides valuable information as to what area(s) of their body may need special attention. Your pet will always “tell” you what they like and don’t like, what hurts and what feels good.
Regular massage allows for early detection of health problems. Through touch and observation, you can feel and notice behavioral changes.
Animal Massage Workshop: $179
For a limited time: $129*
(that is a $50 savings!)
One-to-one-to-one virtual class — just you, your dog and TranquilPET!)
*Classes before pandemic were face-to-face with up to 10 people (& their dog). However, for safety reasons, all classes are currently held virtually 1 to 1 to 1.
Please note: You will need to use a computer (no phone, iPad, tablet). You will arrange your computer camera so I will be able to see your dog’s body and your hands (placed on your dog) in order for me to walk you through hand positions techniques and I can observe your dog’s reactions (if any) to your touch.

*Important Virtual Class Information:
- The object of this Relaxation Massage Class is to empower you to play a more informed roll in your pet’s physical and emotional well-being
- This class is designed (i) solely to relax your pet, (ii) for your pet’s enjoyment and (iii) help you bond with your pet
- This will only be accomplished if you regularly massage your dog, and
- This Relaxation Massage Class is not a certification course for you to become a “small animal massage therapist.” If that is your goal, please contact me and I will direct you to Animal Massage Schools.\
You are your pet’s first and best defense against illness and disease.
This is the perfect class for a dog that is not people/pet friendly.
In-person-to-person-to-dog classes are temporarily suspended due to COVID-19.
So let’s sign up for one-to-one-to-one class (you, your dog and TranquilPET)!
