500			_aABSTRACT The present study is based on the premise that attachment or bond with pets can be formed and serve as attachment figures. A 1994 study of Karen, as cited by Lytle (2021), has defined that having a relationship with a living creature other than a person allows the individual to have a wide range of behaviors and interactions; as such, it indicates that relationships- proximity seeks a haven, secure base, and separation distress. Thus, this study discussed the a) relationship between pet attachment and its effect on the mental well-being of BSN students, b) the relationship between the level of pet attachment to the demographic profile and its effect on mental well-being, and lastly, c) the significant role of the level of attachment in the domestic pet they own. A purposive sample of 81 respondents among BSN students was gathered, taking into consideration the selection criteria. The study uses an inferential statistical analysis, Pearson R, to interpret the data gathered through the survey questionnaires adapted by the researcher from academia.edu. In general, the result shows no significant finding on the relationship between the therapeutic effects of pets on the mental well-being of the chosen participants, and the demographic profile of the chosen participants has no influence on the level of attachment of the respondents to their pets. Results have suggested using a similar approach to attachment to humans and pets. Another variable is suggested for further research to test relationships.
