Pet VIP Therapy & Visitation Program
Share your pet’s love with the community
The Pet VIP Therapy and Visitation Program connects certified pet-handler teams with people in hospitals, care centers, schools, and more – bringing comfort, smiles, and emotional support to those who need it most.
If your pet is calm, social, and well-mannered, this could be a wonderful way to give back together. Dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, goats, and other friendly animals are welcome to participate.
