Fairfax Pets On Wheels

Fairfax Pets On Wheels brings together loving companion pets and Fairfax County residents of nursing homes and assisted-living facilities. FPOW is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) organization sponsored by the Fairfax Area Agency on Aging. Since 1987, we’ve provided pet visitation through a network of more than 300 volunteers. FPOW has touched the lives of thousands of residents in Fairfax County. Currently, we provide visitation to residents in ten facilities, and have many more on a waiting list. Our dedicated volunteers donated over 8,000 hours of pet visitation last year.
