Ever been told pets are “just animals”? 🐾 In this episode of the ProblemSolvHer podcast, Chloe and Dagmar flip the script — showing how midlife pet parenting isn’t only about cuddles and companionship, but about purpose, structure, and deep emotional connection.

From helicopter pet parenting and separation anxiety to building routines, finding balance, and even learning self-care through your furry ones, they share real-life stories of Oliver the dog and a house full of kitties. Discover how pets become family, teachers, and the unexpected source of joy in midlife.

You’ll learn how to:
✅ Embrace the joy and purpose pets bring into midlife
✅ Create structure and balance through daily pet routines
✅ Recognize when “helicopter parenting” pets becomes overwhelming
✅ Find peace by letting go of control while still keeping pets safe
✅ Practice self-care so you can better care for your furry companions

✨ Perfect for women over 40 who see their pets as family — and who want to live with more balance, love, and purpose while enjoying the life lessons animals bring.
