Unfortunately, with the holiday season sometimes comes stress, especially for our furry loved ones. Whether you're traveling or having guests at your house, here are some remedies that you can use for your pet to help keep them happy and stress-free during the holiday season:


iCalm Pet: 
iCalm Pet music is bio acoustically designed music that will help your dog or cat relax by eliminating harsh sensory stimulation and allowing them to focus on calm sounds.

Ideal for: keeping your pet isolated in a relaxed and quiet environment where there are a lot of guests and noise elsewhere in your home.

Calming Plug-In Diffuser: Pet Remedy’s Calming Diffuser provides your pet with a blend of calming essential oils and GABA (gamma amino butyric acid), which is a naturally occurring calming agent in pets. It delivers a slow, constant release to gently calm your pet.

Ideal for: maintaining and lowering stress levels in an environment where there are a lot of guests and noise in your home.
