The Best Care For Your Pet's Golden Years
"It's almost like he's a brand new dog. Nutrition and the plan changed everything."
— Susan, Ralphie's mom
You Know Your Pet.
Their habits, their quirks, the way they move. So when something shifts, even a little, you notice.
You bring it up at the vet and you're told everything looks fine, or that it's something to monitor, or that they're just getting older. That relief is temporary. The uncertainty stays, and it's heavy. You second-guess every small change. You carry the worry alone. You fear missing a window to help your pet, or ending up at the ER for something preventable.
You're left asking: is this normal aging, or something that needs action?
Hi, I'm Dr. Amanda Steffen,
DVM, licensed in Chinese medicine and Senior Dog Level 2 certified.
I run an in-home senior dog and cat integrative practice in Greater Cincinnati and have focused on senior pet care for four years. Working in clients' homes taught me to spot subtle, early pattern changes that don't always show up on tests. I combine Western medicine with Chinese medicine, including acupuncture and herbal medicine, to prioritize what actually helps and to keep pets comfortable at home. They deserve all the options for their wellbeing.
The Senior Pet Roadmap Program brings that clinician-led, hands-on expertise to a one-on-one, in-depth level, so you get true, individualized veterinary guidance.
How the Senior Pet Roadmap Works
12-Week Course Access
Full access to both the Dog and Cat course tracks, six modules each, built to transform you into someone who understands what your pet is telling you and can confidently advocate for the care that gives them their best seniorhood.
Community & Resources
A private community of senior pet parents, a full resource library, and an emergency checklist so you always know what to do when something comes up.
Twice-Monthly Group Calls
Live group calls with Dr. Amanda twice a month to ask questions, get guidance, and hear what other pet parents are navigating too.
Grief & Rehab Support
Twice-monthly grief support calls with a grief counseling vet, plus twice-monthly rehabilitation sessions with licensed rehab veterinary specialists.
The resource library continues growing, covering topics like SQ ketamine for pain control, low dose NSAID therapy in cats, holistic flea and tick options, how to calculate protein and calorie needs, how to triage at home to avoid unnecessary ER visits, and quality of life and pain scale calculators.
The Senior Pet Roadmap Program allows you to:
Know what's normal aging and what needs early action, giving your pet more good days and often more time with you.
Reduce unnecessary ER visits with targeted at-home strategies.
Have a living, clinician-documented plan that's revised month to month.
Make your home the most comfortable place for your pet.
Receive sustained, focused clinician attention.
Access specialist support and a community of other senior pet parents who get it.

I built the Senior Pet Roadmap after four years of in-home senior work and thousands of questions from worried pet parents. Owners deserve clear answers, not more confusion.
This is how I deliver clinician-led clarity and care.
Here's what's included in the Senior Pet Roadmap Program:
Access to both Senior Pet Courses, Dog and Cat, 6 modules each, for 12 weeks
Group trainings covering common senior pet concerns
Private community and resource library
Emergency checklist
Twice-monthly group calls with Dr. Amanda
Twice-monthly grief support calls with a grief counseling vet
Twice-monthly rehabilitation sessions with licensed rehabilitation veterinary specialists
PLUS Bonus Resources covering at-home triage training, strengthening your bond with your senior pet, the full ebook library in video format, quality of life and pain scale calculators, natural flea and tick prevention, and more.
Each of these resources is valuable on its own. Together, they're part of one connected plan.

What Happens If You Wait
Waiting could mean leaving your pet in pain or living with a chronic issue your vet simply can't catch in a quick routine appointment. You could try to piece this together yourself, seeing specialist after specialist, but it would likely take months of trial and error without a clinician and community backing you the whole way. The Senior Pet Roadmap Program gives you a prioritized, clinician-led plan from the start, so you spend your time and energy on what actually helps.
