N2  - ABSTRACT:	  For many people, pets are profoundly pleasurable and a source of psychological support. The fact is, however, that empirical studies of the effects of pets on human health and well-being have produced a mishmash of conflicting results. On the other hand, well-being is not simply living a life full of happiness, it is more than maintaining a self-equolibrium between discomfort and comfort. With this, the study aimed to examine, through a descriptive-differential research design, the difference and relationship between pet ownership and psychological well-being among first year college students. A purposive sampling was used to gather 200 students from the College of Science, then respondents were assined to their respective groups. A questionnaire that assessed their psychological well-being, through Ryff's Scales of Psychological Well-Being, was utilized to obtain the required data. Results showed that there is no significant difference and relationship between pet owners' and non-owners' psychological well-being. The null hypothesis was accepted therefore, psychological well-being is not related to pet ownership
