Trina Veland

August 7, 2025

Trina is a level II Reiki Practitioner and a SARA practitioner trained in The Let Animals Lead® method of Animal Reiki based in Burlington, Ontario. She owns a business offering Reiki to both animals and humans, in person and distant.

She is passionate about animal welfare and has always spoken up to help be a voice for those that cannot speak for themselves. She volunteers her extra time giving Animal Reiki to those who need it the most.

The huge shifts she has seen in her own dog from Animal Reiki (both physical and behaviour) has made her become a huge advocate for Reiki for animals. She is available for in person and distant Reiki sessions.

Sandra Ferguson is a SARA Animal Reiki Practitioner. From a young age Sandra could be found with a cat in her arms and a dog trailing along while at her Grandparent’s farm on Manitoulin Island. Sandra is pictured with a client Lynus, although he is deaf and blind he has reached a ripe old age and continues to enjoy a good quality of life. She lives in Lively, Ontario, Canada with her partner and their three fur babies in a rural setting. These days she volunteers at local cat and dog shelters offering Reiki to sheltered and fostered cats and dogs as well as a variety of wild birds and animals that inhabit the natural areas surrounding her home. She offers in-person and distance Reiki sessions for animals, adults and children.

Teresa Montalbo

September 25, 2024

Teresa’s  journey into Reiki and yoga with animal companions began when she noticed how much her soul dog, Gracie, loved their yoga and meditation sessions. When Gracie ruptured her back knee ligament, Reiki was the last support they tried, but the first with visible effects! This paw-some discovery led Teresa to explore how these practices benefit both humans and their animal companions.

Inspired by her soul dog, Gracie, Teresa started a local Bring Your Dog to Yoga Class to benefit shelters and rescues near and far – feeding shelters for the day, sponsoring kennels, and causes. Teresa offers Reiki for humans and animals, in person and by distance. Teresa volunteers weekly at the Niagara SPCA as part of Gracie’s legacy.

Teresa’s partner is also an animal lover and they live in Niagara Falls, Canada. Their fur kids are Luna (Doggo Project) and Cosmo (Saving South Paws). Cosmo loves being her assistant Reiki teacher (and the snacks!)
