Are you looking to volunteer with pets and their owners in your community? Through the Pet Assistance Linking Support (PALS) program, volunteers can make a positive difference in the lives of older adults and their companion animals!
If you are a compassionate volunteer looking to assist older adults with basic pet care tasks in their homes in Cuyahoga County, then we want you to volunteer with us!

Types of pet care volunteers provide:
