🌸 About Dawn

 

Hello, I’m Dawn McGroarty — founder of Paradise Pawsome Healing Center, a heart-centered space dedicated to the holistic well-being of animals and the humans who love them.

 

For over twenty years, I worked in the veterinary field — as both a veterinary assistant and a licensed technician — supporting animals through all stages of life. I also served as a volunteer EMT and firefighter, a caregiver, and a department manager for pet care at Walmart. Each role deepened my understanding of compassion, service, and the sacred bond between all living beings.

 

Through the years, I felt called to bring together the best of both worlds: the science of veterinary care and the gentle wisdom of holistic healing. This vision became Paradise Pawsome Healing Center — where compassion meets energy, and love meets science.

 

Now based in Big Pine Key, Florida, I draw daily inspiration from the ocean, the Key deer, and the quiet rhythm of nature. I share my home with my husband, Mario, and our three beloved fur companions — Einstein, Pumpkin, and Merlin — who remind me every day that animals are not just pets, but soulful teachers and healers in their own right.

 

Here at Paradise Pawsome, I write, create, and share from the heart — blending my veterinary experience with holistic practices such as Reiki, energy healing, sound therapy, and animal communication. My goal is to help people understand their animals on a deeper level — physically, emotionally, and energetically — and to inspire a world where healing happens through love, empathy, and connection.

 

Whether you’re reading an article, seeking guidance, or simply stopping by to reconnect with the beauty of animal life, I hope you feel the peace, compassion, and joy that live at the heart of this space.

 

“Healing begins the moment we open our hearts to listen — to the animals, to nature, and to the quiet wisdom within.”

 

With Love, Light, and Many Blessings,
Dawn McGroarty
