I wanted to start using a specific essential oil for my sleeping routine but want to make sure it’s safe to use around my cat and dog. The species is “Anthemis Nobilis”

This is also known as Roman chamomile and is generally considered safe to use around dogs and cats. Take precautions to keep them from coming into contact with the oil itself as this may cause GI upset or skin irritation. Monitor them for any negative reactions (coughing, sneezing, drooling, red eyes, etc.) when you first use it and make adjustments as needed.
