Client Testimonialss

Case studies and what delighted clients say:


"Max’s human mom, Marica, got in touch with me because she loves her dogs enormously and wishes for them to be happy. Marica has a very loving heart and believes in adopting dogs. However, that sometimes means that the dogs have some issues from their past. Marica is not someone who gives up on a dog, though, even if their issues seem almost insurmountable.


Max, the handsome gentleman with the green bow tie, tended to be distrustful of humans, even someone as loving and caring as his mom, Marica. He was also a nervous little dog. Relaxing while eating posed major challenges for Max. He would keep a distance from the food bowl, then dart in and quickly snatch something to eat. It upset Marica when she saw that Max struggled to relax and be happy.


When Marica got home from work, Max would dance around her and wag the little stump of his tail with great abandon, but she couldn’t touch him or pick him up. “I always had to bribe him with something tasty to get him to allow me to touch him,” Marica says. "He made sure that he kept a safe distance from people, no matter how loving they were towards him."


Because she wanted Max to be happier and to have a closer relationship with him, Marica asked me to have a conversation with him.


“After the chat, he changed completely,” says Marica. “Now, he comes to me immediately to be picked up, even in the excitement of my arrival at home.”


It is as if he trusts me more and loves me more. He also plays much more with the other dogs. It looks to me as if he doesn’t have so much to worry about any more.”


Max and strangers

Max didn’t like strangers at all. The hot water tank burst and Marica was deeply worried about how Max would react to the team of workers who needed to come and fix it, because she was unable to be at home at the time. “Usually, Max would have been scared, depressed and unhappy for weeks after such an experience…"


However, Max made a brilliant plan to help himself feel safe: Marica says: "He climbed onto the seesaw. This put him at a higher level than the work team so that he could ‘oversee’ their work from a high point. When I got home, he was as happy as can be.”


This story was particularly funny, because, during my communication session with Max, he sang a song to me: “I am on top of the world, looking down on creation…” (Our chat was before the episode with the hot water tank – so it seems Max found the courage to implement his desire for heights after our chat.) 😂


“His eating habits have also changed. Now, he stands quietly at his bowl and finishes his food before he goes and cleans his mouth on the lawn,” says Marica. (See, I told you he is a gentleman!)


Max used to be quite scared of the tunnels at agility training. That problem is now a thing of the past. His obedience at agility training has also improved a lot.


Marica tells a funny story about Max’s new confidence at agility: “We were doing an exercise where we had to collect 10 different objects in a particular order. I forgot about one of the objects and called him to another. It seems that Max knew the order better than I did, because he ran off, collected the correct object and then ran back to me. Everybody found that extremely funny!"


"Max went on to do three clear rounds in two competitions. He went from a doggie who was scared of agility (and a lot of other things) to a happy, confident boy who now loves his life and agility training." 💜


Marica Oosthuizen

"I run a rescue centre called The 9th Day. Ben was a stray doggie we tried to catch in Krugersdorp. He was so petrified of people that you couldn’t come close to him. I decided to use a trap, but sadly that scared Ben off and he disappeared for three days. I was worried sick and, on top of that, felt guilty because I had 'chased him away.'


During this time, I attended an animal communication course with Marinda and asked her if she could maybe speak to “the dog.” Well, Marinda made contact with “the dog” and he mentioned that his name is Ben. He also said that he trusts me, but he does not want to go into a cage.


Marinda asked Ben if he would go back to the place where we first saw him and what time would best suit him for me to help him. Ben said that it needed to be early in the morning, while the dew is still on the grass. Marinda also showed him a picture of my vehicle to make him feel “safe” and suggested to him that he should come to the truck (bakkie) when he sees it.


The very next morning, my daughter and I went to Ben’s “old spot” and arrived just after 07:00. Ben was nowhere to be seen. As I turned around to leave, my daughter said: “Mom, look behind you!”


Ben appeared out of nowhere at exactly the same spot we had seen him before. I couldn’t believe it, but still thought that this might be pure luck. I had bought a burger for Ben, but he still didn’t want to come close enough for me to touch him. I had brought another doggie with me to reassure Ben, and he would come right up to me and sniff at the other doggie.


As soon as I moved, however, Ben would take about 20 steps back. He looked thirsty and I asked my daughter to sit quietly with the doggie and the burgers while I went to fetch water from the truck.

Well, I still cannot believe what happened next. As I opened the car door, my daughter called (as softly as she could) for me to look behind me. Ben had followed me. As I leaned over into the truck to get the water, he rolled onto his side and made funny, playful noises. I knew that it was my cue and I immediately picked him up. Ben couldn’t stop giving me kisses and, needless to say, my daughter and I couldn’t stop crying.


I still get goosebumps when I talk about Ben. People who weren’t there would think I’m telling lies, but I experienced it and if Ben could talk, he would tell you the same. People who know how we battled to catch Ben, couldn’t believe it when I told them that he literally walked up to my Bronze Isuzu truck, just like Marinda had asked him to.


If ever I didn’t believe in animal communication, Marinda and Ben made me a believer. Marinda, you’ve been blessed with an amazing gift. Thank you for helping a poor homeless doggie find a happily ever after.

"Thank you so much for a precious service and conversation and such a detailed review filled with care and love. I am blown away, I have been smiling all day and telling everybody about it.

Much love,"


Sarah, UK

"I just wanted to let you know that Toby has been doing so much better since our session and me following through on many of the things he talked about! I have seen a marked change in his willingness to be affectionate, relaxed and settled in our family.


He is just so much happier in his body now; along with beginning to have supervised visits outside, which he is really loving so much. It’s almost like his true self is coming back online again. It makes me so happy to see this after what he lived through previously! Tillie also continues to improve and is eating more and more consistently and able to poop again, since she is not throwing everything up any more.


All in all they both continue to regain their equilibrium in beautiful ways!


Thanks again for the session!


With love,"


Diana Breen, Oregon

"Thank you so much!!!!


You’re simply amazing! That was so wonderful and yes the image of the shell was incredible! He is deeply asleep right now, his energy is very calm. 😊


With so much love and gratitude,"

"Hi Marinda, I would like to thank you again. This past week you enriched the lives of quite a number of horses and humans. My friend and her horse are thriving! I am totally amazed by the transformation in her and her horse."

Alta de Wit, South Africa

"Being so thankful for the online session I had with Marinda! I contacted her to get more clarity about our plans of having a dog. Even without having a dog at this moment, it was so great to feel her support in my process and getting lots of information. It made me feel more secure inside, going an unknown path. I am more open now and trust to keep following my senses in preparing myself and family for our future dog! We still have to wait a bit… but I would love to contact Marinda again once our puppy is there! Thank you so much for being who you are.


Thank you very much again! Feeling more happy and light!"


Tanja Kienhuis, The Netherlands

"I’ve only had my SA Boerperd, Diego, for nine months. In the beginning I was very scared of him and didn’t really want to ride him. Diego was very spooky and therefore I didn’t really trust him. I started losing hope and didn’t really know how to handle him anymore.


A friend of mine gave me Marinda’s number and said that I should contact her for an animal communication session with Diego. I got in touch with Marinda to hear what Diego has to say. When I got feedback from Marinda I was blown away and very emotional. That same afternoon, when I went to see Diego, he stood waiting for me in the camp. I just put my arms around his neck and told him I am sorry, that things will go better with us from today and that the communication between us will be mended.


So far, I have done the things he recommended in the conversation with Marinda and our relationship has improved 100%.


Diego’s spookiness is a thing of the past. My confidence in him has increased to such an extent that I now ride him bareback and without a bridle. I am also now much more comfortable when riding him or doing ground work with him."


Tertia Kellerman, South Africa

"I am really happy too that Spitz actually loves me and being with me, and now I will do the steps you mentioned. I will definitely keep telling him that I won't leave him.


Yesterday he was completely calm and completely relaxed :D Maybe he was just respecting my birthday wish to have a relaxed day, or maybe something already switched.


Thank you a lot for your kindness and our session! Spritz and I really enjoyed it and I am really happy that I've found a way to talk with him and see through you what is going on." 😺

A cat affectionately known as Sweet Pea instructed 😉 her mom to write this:


“I had a tooth infection the other day and my mum had a meltdown. She was worried about having to go to the vet and me having an operation, because… I am not a spring chicken.


We contacted Marinda so that we could work out what to do and what I thought about the whole thing.

We had a session and guess what? My mum talked to me at the same time Marinda talked to me – and my mum talks to me all the time, but she actually doesn’t really understand that she is actually talking to me and she is actually hearing my thoughts telepathically in her head – from me to her, I mean.


Well, guess what? Marinda and my mum both extracted the same thoughts out of my head. Yay for consistency!

So, anyway, this is just to say that you may feel uncertain and you might not know what to do… with any situation concerning your little one, or big one, depending on whether they are little or big.


And, if this is the case, call Marinda and she can help you.


Bye!”

"I have known Marinda since 2008. Marinda first communicated with one of my horses who had issues regarding training. She helped identify areas of concern which a vet later confirmed. Had it not been for Marinda's help, I would not have asked the trainer to investigate. Since then she has helped him resolve other issues as well.


In 2009 I asked Marinda to speak to a younger horse who seemed to need help, as well as my lovely mare. The feedback from both horses was so enlightening and it helped me make decisions regarding their welfare.


My sister asked Marinda to communicate with her beloved cat, Chaska, who has passed on. The information Marinda supplied from her chat with Chaska was extremely accurate, and the message from Chaska to my sister was wonderful. It helped us all to honour her memory, and gave us an opportunity to say goodbye and that we love her.


I feel that Marinda truly cares about animals and is genuinely concerned about their well-being. I would highly recommend her."

"I just can't tell you how much I appreciate your approach.


I just find it really refreshing and uplifting and it is really encouraging.


Thank you - this is wonderful! I am so glad that I found you."
