Pets enhance our emotional health

Pets enhance our emotional health

29 Mar 2025 by Ted Escobedo   2 min read

Most owners would agree that a pet can improve your mental health in many ways. Their constant love, care, daily structure, and needs can fill us with purpose. The love and companionship they provide in a home is proven to:
• Help reduce stress and anxiety
• Ease feelings of loneliness
• Provide unconditional love and support
• Create a calming presence
• Give a sense of purpose for pet parents
Pet ownership can also give us a push to better ourselves. If you can't or don't own a pet, even being around a family or friend's animal can benefit your mental well-being.
