    Paws for hospice: Therapy Dogs Needed!

    Become a Pet Therapy Hospice Volunteer

    Do you have a gentle, friendly pet who loves people? Your furry companion could bring comfort, smiles and joy to hospice patients when they need it the most.

    Seeking licensed pet therapy providers and certified pet therapy teams ready to share comfort and companionship.

    No medical experience needed - just a calm pet, a caring handler, and a heart for helping others.

    As a Pet Therapy Volunteer, you can:

    • Visit patients for comfort and companionship
    • Brighten someone's day with wagging tails and cuddles
    • Reduce stress and loneliness
    • Share special moments and smiles
    • Bring warmth where words aren't always needed

    Why Volunteer?

    • Flexible scheduling
    • Meaningful visits
    • Full support provided
    • Make a lasting impact
    • Tail wags encouraged

    Some heroes wear capes. Some shed a little more.
