Therapet

Therapet’s mission is to utilize specially trained and certified animals to promote health, hope and healing.

Every day, Therapet teams motivate, inspire and comfort people by providing excellence in health, hope and healing. Therapet provides internationally recognized standards, educational expertise and highly sought after certification programs for the successful management of animal assisted therapy and animal assisted activities.

Therapet has now been serving east Texas for 20 years! What started as a small group of six or seven founding volunteer teams has now grown to 100+ volunteers, 80+ dogs, 5 cats and a cockatoo. Three of our founding volunteers, Bonnie Maywhort, Julie Miller and Susie Moore, are still volunteering with Therapet. They continue to guide the mission of our organization and support Therapet through their leadership and volunteerism.
