Do you enjoy visiting with individuals who need some encouragement? Do you love talking with other dog enthusiasts? Do you have a registered therapy dog who loves people and can't get enough petting? We want you! Please join us as a volunteer therapy dog team!

We are looking for registered therapy dog teams to visit with patients (and staff) throughout the hospital. We will work closely with you to help you feel equipped to provide caring visits and your dog will get lots of treats.

This is a truly rewarding opportunity - both for you and for our patients!
