Soul level animal communicator Anne Merrill, who splits her time between coastal Maine and Naples, can perform readings for owners to learn their animals' thoughts, feelings and ideas to facilitate improved care and well-being, recognize shifts in the household environment and teach us more about them. Sessions are conducted via telephone or Zoom; the animal does not need to be present and Merrill does not need a photo of them.

She studied with the renowned Danielle MacKinnon, spending extensive time developing and honing her intuition with animals and learning how to work with them at the soul level. “Much of animal communication is about listening,” says Merrill. “The animal is the leader. We have to listen to what the animal has to say. Knowing why they are acting in a certain way is very helpful. People love their animals. More people may have acquired animals during the pandemic; some have adopted them. When you adopt, you don’t always know their background. I can help with that.”
