Heart to Heart Hospice is looking for volunteers and their certified pet therapy animals to visit patients with life-limiting illness. Animals bring our patients back to happy moments in time, and we recognize their unique ability to assist loved ones when expressing feelings.
No pet certification? No worries! Our Volunteer Services Coordinator will be glad to guide you through the process for your trainable, people-loving, fur-friend to be a certified pet therapy volunteer. We are excited to meet YOU!
