Volunteering with Pets

PETS (Pets and Elder Team Support)

Pets need constant attention and care. Volunteer to help a senior when love is not enough.

You can assist with pet care tasks such as:

  • Dog walking
  • Litter box cleaning
  • Birdcage maintenance
  • Shopping for pet supplies
  • Veterinarian appointments
  • Pet boarding

PETS volunteers meet to network and share resources at a monthly Council gathering. Average weekly commitment.

Paws and Friendly Visiting

What's better than puppy love? Visit a homebound senior accompanied by a young Labrador retriever as part of the animal's seeing-eye dog training twice a month. Volunteers complete a course in puppy-handling; a six-month commitment is required.
