    Description

    Therapy Dog and Volunteer needed in Hospice

    Heart to Heart Hospice is seeking friendly canines and their owners to join our volunteer team! Man's best friend and their human will visit the local assisted living facility where our hospice patients call home.

    We all understand the joy and comfort that pets or cuddles from a furry friend can bring. These dynamic duos, our friendly canines and their owners, will bring this same joy and comfort to our patients. Their presence will brighten not only the patients' days but also the lives of the facility staff.

    Our orientation is designed to fit your schedule, and we offer flexible hours to accommodate your availability. In addition, we will write letters of recommendation and serve as a referral for you, recognizing and appreciating your valuable contribution to our cause.

    With our volunteer-friendly approach, you can choose to work as many hours as you are able and willing to. We understand that your time is valuable, and we want to ensure that you can make a meaningful contribution without compromising your other commitments.
