What You Bring:

  • A therapy dog certified through Pet Partners, Alliance of Therapy Dogs, or similar
  • An open heart and desire to serve people facing end-of-life challenges
  • Sensitivity to emotional and spiritual needs
  • Willingness to drive throughout our metro service area

Benefits of Volunteering:

  • Watch the bond between human and animal create powerful emotional support
