    Description

    Do you have a certified therapy pet who loves people? If so, you could make a difference in the lives of our hospice patients. Care360 Hospice is looking for volunteers with certified therapy pets to visit and provide comfort and joy to those at the end of life.

    To qualify, pets must be current with their vaccinations and licensed with a recognized pet therapy organization (such as Pet Partners, Therapy Dogs International, AKC Therapy Dog Program, or Therapy Dogs Incorporated). Pet owners will also undergo our standard onboarding and training process, which includes a TB test and BCI check (provided and paid for by Care360 Hospice).

    If you're interested in becoming a hospice volunteer and sharing the companionship of your pet, please express your interest and submit relevant information through VolunteerMatch. Our Volunteer Coordinator will contact you by email or phone during business hours to begin the onboarding process.

    Join us in our mission to bring comfort and support to those in need. Your presence and your pet's companionship can have a profound impact on someone's life. We look forward to welcoming you to our volunteer team!
