About CMR Calm Canine Wellness
CMR Calm Canine Wellness was founded from a background in advanced mental health practice and nervous system-informed wellbeing.
Working extensively with emotional regulation has shaped my understanding of how stress physiology influences behaviour. Dogs, like humans, rely on a balanced autonomic nervous system — shifting between activation (stress response) and recovery (rest and restore).
When routines change, owners return to work, surgery occurs or environments shift, stress hormones such as cortisol can remain elevated. This can affect settling, behaviour and overall wellbeing.
Research across mammalian physiology shows that predictable routine, calm tone, low-stimulation environments and structured tactile interaction support the body’s recovery state. This contributes to emotional stability, safer adjustment and improved behavioural settling.
My work translates these evidence-informed principles into structured, in-home canine wellbeing visits.
I specialise in supporting anxious or sensitive dogs, puppies adjusting to routine, senior dogs, post-surgery recovery cases and dogs experiencing separation or environmental disruption.
Each visit is calm, intentional and regulation-focused — prioritising safety, consistency and emotional balance within the home environment.
Based in Exeter.
