Our Story
It was March, 2020, and the US had just shut down the country due to the Pandemic. Suddenly, all connection to friends and family was disconnected and all Kate had to focus on were her animals and the world outside her door. After a few weeks of coming to terms with all things unprecedented, she was compelled to take a long deep dive into herself and find what was going to keep her balanced and connected.
The abrupt disconnect emphasized the critical need to reconnect to animals and nature for an overall wellbeing and something was ignited in her heart. With that came a sudden drive to create a space for conversations with scientists, animal advocates, journalists, and others, with the hope of inspiring a new awareness of how and why we connect to animals and nature and why it’s so important.
Kate & Jenn are sisters who love animals and nature. Kate has a BA in Anthropology and is the owner of Otis & Roo Dog Collars. Jenn is a court appointed child advocate with CASA and a board member and volunteer for the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education. They both live in Pennsylvania with their beloved pets; Jenn with Tulah, a Bernese Mountain dog and Kate with Blue & Pip, street pups from Turkey. Kate also has 2 cats, Roo & Marcus, who are now 17.
