Deanne’s calming voice and demeanors put me at
ease right away. Sammie was another story. It was a good thing that
I prepared some photographs of Sammie for Deanne to start her
reading. The insight Deanne had surprised me.
Deanne looked puzzled, “Sammie is showing me a
dog, but you don’t have a dog here…….. Sammie wants to tell you that
she is not really afraid of the dog. But she finds the dog energy
difficult to be around.” I smiled and told Deanne that I was
dog-sitting for 2 weeks recently. Having a dog around was a very
traumatic experience for Sammie. She walked around the dog and
avoided the “dog area” of the house at all costs. I thought Sammie
was afraid of the dog.
I asked Deanne to please ask Sammie not to run
across the street. After all, Sammie is quite old and I sometimes
wonder if she can really see or hear anything. “Sammie said that she
knows to avoid cars. Sammie said that she found something she likes
beyond a white picket fence …..” Deanne came in the evening. My
neighbors’ white picket fence was not obvious. Sammie does like to
hang out over there.
It must have been very obvious to Deanne how
much I love this cat and think she is the most beautiful cat in the
world. Deanne, in all seriousness, told me that “beauty” is not how
Sammie sees herself. “Sammie prides herself as being intelligent and
elegant. She knows her movement is graceful.” This is my cat,
indeed.
“Spiritually, what is this relationship
about?” “It is karmic, not in the sense that you two had past lives
together. Sammie was a heavenly gift to you from a female relative,
an aunt.” As someone believing in reincarnation, I asked Deanne if
Sammie would come back after this lifetime to be my pet again. “Let
me ask Sammie …… Sammie said that she would like that, too. But she
is not sure if she wants to be a cat again. She said she may want to
be a dog or a bird. She sees that dogs follow you around, go places
with you. She often wonders what you do all day after leaving the
house in the morning. She sees that birds fly around with a lot more
freedom.”
Near the end of this reading, Sammie was
enjoying being stroked and patted by Deanne. In the weeks following
Deanne’s visit, Sammie has chosen to hang out more in our backyard.
She rarely crosses the street to my neighbors’ house now. In ways I
never imagined possible, Sammie and I are getting closer. At least
for me, I have become a lot more aware of every moment we spend
together. I treasure them that much more.
A reading by Deanne turned out to be a great
Christmas present for me as well.

I highly recommend Deanne Knowland. Her remarkable skills helped save a pet's life and spared me , and the pet owner a lot of anxiety and expense. Thanks to Deanne's intuitive /healing abilities, extensive technique with animal behavior and communication, professional demeanor, and calm presence- a potential nightmare was prevented.
I was managing the sale of a family property. The residents had all moved out except an elderly cat who'd barricaded itself within the maze of floorboards and walls of the attic. For days, I and others tried luring the frightened feline with treats and prompting-to no avail. She wouldn't even come out for her owner whom she loves! Concerned for the cat's safety, we were considering ripping the walls open and postponing the open house tour scheduled for the next day. I was about to call animal control or the fire department when a friend suggested Ms. Knowland.
To my wonder, relief and great appreciation the cat revealed itself to Deanne and came out of hiding, and was happily sent off to her new home. The tour proceeded as planned and the house rapidly sold.
Ms. Knowland is a resourceful blessing.

Deanne is firmly supporting me during an intense and sensitive shedding/rebirthing/growth period in my life. She is supportive in a genuine, brave, fearless, honest, confident, and nurturing way. I see her
both as a role model and a friend. She never passes judgment on me,
instead coming from a place of love. I am sensitive, so I can
feel purity in her character. I quickly learned not to fear her
as I had so many people before her who knew me vulnerably. She is
talented in making contact with and communicating with
spirit...profoundly. If you are seeking spiritual guidance here, you
will find yourself in good hands.

Deanne Knowland has been our pet intuitive for many years. She helped
us and our first dog understand that her cat friend had to pass into spirit.
She later helped our two new cats adapt and welcome our new puppy into
the family. Also, Deanne helped me make a deal with a very stubborn
cat, a deal which this cat has honored to this day. She has also helped
us to understand and successfully cope with various health problems with our
pets. Deanne is very talented and we, and our pets, all love her.

In November 2006 I had a series of strange or rather
inexplicable occurrences transpire over a two week period in
connection with my mother who died almost four years ago. I am in a
writer’s group where I live on Martha’s Vineyard. Each week we read
a story. I had begun reading stories I had written in a one month
period nine months after my mother died. These were “incidents from
my youth.” Not pleasant stories, many about my mother. That week I
received a 16-page letter written by my mother, all stories I had
never heard about her childhood. Why these pages surfaced from
being wedged between a drawer and the wood inside a small bureau and
then through a friend of a friend arrived by mail when they did I am
not sure. The next week I received a phone call from my mother.
Although one may find an explanation as to why my mother’s phone
number appeared on the phone when the blinking light on the base let
me know I had missed a call, one still would never be able to
explain why just her name appeared with the telephone number, as it
had never been listed in her name. After checking with my children
and learning the phone had not even rung when I was out with the
dogs, I found myself becoming more and more agitated. I phoned an
old friend of mine who gave me Deanne’s name and number. I spoke
with her the day following the phone call. Although we had never
met and only had this opportunity to speak at length I found her to
be an incredibly calming force. Her keen perceptions, her insight,
and the manner in which she conveys herself all worked to relieve
me, give me a needed sense of ease while bridging some of the
confusion I had been feeling about my mother. Instead of trying to
keep thoughts of my mother from disturbing me, disapproving as she
was, Deanne gave me a frame of reference which allowed me to embrace
the friendship my mother and I managed later in life and trust that
though she had been unable to communicate her emotions to me in life
that she was still there for me, maybe not in the way I had always
longed for her, but in the only way she ever could be. This proved
to be a turning point and allowed me to move forward without being
weighted down simply by the pain of the past. I
appreciate finding someone with Deanne’s gift and communication
abilities.

I was having such problems with my dog. Molly was
aggressive towards strangers - we couldn't trust her with anyone!
And she was biting my husband and sons. I was afraid I was going to
have to put my dog down--she was simply too unpredictable and dangerous.
Deanne
did good work with Molly. Molly is a changed dog, and it only took
one session. Deanne told me to to watch Molly's eyes. It's amazing! And it only took one session.
