Paws, Playlists, and Peace: Crafting Your Pet’s Sound Lifestyle

Paws, Playlists, and Peace: Crafting Your Pet’s Sound Lifestyle

Author: Janet Marlow July 13, 2025 Duration: 4:11

Welcome to We're All Ears—where we listen to what your pets wish they could tell you. I’m Janet Marlow, sound behaviorist, founder of Pet Acoustics, and today we’re tackling a question you might not have thought about: Should your pet have… a sound lifestyle?"

What Even Is a ‘Sound Lifestyle’?

 You’ve heard of clean eating, yoga for dogs, and spa days for cats. But a ‘sound lifestyle’ for pets? Not as trendy—yet.
 For them, the world is a loud, layered orchestra, and not always a pleasant one. 


In Pet Acoustics: We're All Ears!, host Janet Marlow explores the intricate relationship between animals and the soundscapes they inhabit. As a Sound Behaviorist and founder of Pet Acoustics, Janet guides listeners through a nuanced auditory journey, revealing how creatures great and small perceive frequencies and noises invisible to human ears. This podcast isn't just about cute pets; it's a deep dive into the science of hearing, behavior, and emotional well-being. You'll discover how everyday sounds-from household appliances to city traffic-can trigger profound reactions in animals, influencing their stress levels, moods, and even their health. Each episode is built on the premise that by understanding the acoustic world from an animal's perspective, we can forge deeper, more harmonious bonds with our companions. Whether you're a pet owner, an animal lover, or simply curious about the hidden sensory experiences of other species, this series offers a unique blend of research, practical advice, and captivating stories. Tune in to hear conversations that will change how you listen to the world alongside your furry, feathered, or scaled friends.
