For many clients, one of the most common uncertainties is knowing what to ask during a session. This is completely natural.
Animals are incredibly intuitive and often address their guardian’s thoughts, concerns, and curiosities even before specific questions are asked. They understand what matters most to you and frequently bring forward what they feel is most important.
Over the years, a wide range of thoughtful, insightful—and even lighthearted—questions have been asked. Below is a curated selection to help guide and inspire you. Some are deeply meaningful, while others invite a more playful or heartwarming perspective.
That said, your session is entirely personal. You are welcome to ask anything you feel called to explore—this list is simply a source of inspiration, not limitation.
Suggested Questions to Ask
What does your ideal day look like?
What do I do, as your guardian, that you find frustrating or uncomfortable?
What do you need in order to feel safe, relaxed, and at ease?
How do you feel about your name?
Is there another name you would prefer?
How would you describe your personality?
How would you describe me, as your guardian?
What can I do to improve your happiness and overall quality of life?
What would be on your “bucket list”? (especially for pets nearing transition)
Do you feel that I truly understand you?
Do you feel heard?
Do you have any guidance or wisdom for me moving forward?
How are you feeling emotionally and physically?
What are you here to help teach me?
If you are trying to communicate with me, how do you do so?
How would you describe our relationship?
Questions to Reconsider
- Do you know that I love you?
- Do you love me?
These questions, while heartfelt, are almost always unnecessary—animals naturally experience and express unconditional love, and this is consistently reflected within sessions.
Ultimately, the most meaningful sessions come from a place of openness, curiosity, and genuine connection. Trust that whatever you feel guided to ask will lead to exactly what you and your animal are meant to receive.
