Volunteer must have his/her own certified Therapy Dog. Handler must be able to provide dog's health record (current DHLPP, Bordetella, Rabies, and fecal tests), therapy certification and certified of liability insurance policy.
Hours are very flexible, weekdays, evenings, or weekends are available. Typically, we ask that you visit your assigned patient 1-2 hours per week. For more information, contact Curvonna Harris at (248)794-2031 or email charris2@elara.com.
