Pet Partners of Portland

is 100% volunteer based

The Pet Partners Therapy Animal Program consists of a community of volunteers across the United States, and the world. In addition to expanding awareness of the positive impact of the human-animal bond, Pet Partners volunteers strengthen their own communities through volunteerism. Except for a limited staff based at Pet Partners headquarters in Bellevue, WA, the Therapy Animal Program consists almost entirely of volunteers who give of their time to promote safe and effective animal-assisted interventions.
