Abstract: Psychiatric disorders are prevalent worldwide and are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality (Whiteford et al., 2013). A strong point of consideration in the treatment of psychiatric disorders is that they do not follow a clear-cut textbook linearity, and there are high levels of variability even within a single class of diagnosis (e.g., See Miguel et al., 2005 for variability in obsessive-compulsive disorder phenotypes). Contemporary psychotherapy is based on a model where therapy is tailored to individual needs and requirements. In this model, apart from traditional pharmacological and psychotherapy, alternative therapeutic approaches have gained significant attention. Among these approaches, pet therapy, also known as animal-assisted therapy, has emerged as a compelling and widely explored avenue. The psychological benefits of interacting with animals have been acknowledged across various studies (e.g, Brodie & Biley, 1998; Giaquinto & Valentini, 2009; Cherniack & Cherniack, 2014), shedding light on the potential of animals to contribute positively to mental and physical health outcomes. This comprehensive literature review aims to delve into the various facets of pet therapy, examining its historical roots, methodological approaches, and empirical evidence supporting its efficacy in diverse clinical settings. Understanding the psychological mechanism underlying the positive impact of pet therapy can further inform and enhance the integration of this alternative therapeutic modality into mainstream health practices. We will end the review with some empirically driven suggestions to make animal-assisted therapy more accessible to countries in the global south, especially India. In this, we will also review the socioeconomic considerations of animal-assisted therapy and its implications on community mental health.
