At Therapeutic Paws of Canada we offer a volunteer based therapy dog and cat visitation program for senior’s facilities such as retirement homes, nursing homes, Alzheimer day away centers, hospitals and where there is a need.

Many TPOC volunteers are involved in the Paws To Read programme. TPOC provide Child Certified therapy dogs and handlers to schools to help students who struggle with reading skills.

We welcome dedicated individuals to join us in building this exciting new organization. The Therapeutic Paws of Canada organization is based on the needs of the community and the volunteer’s simple request to “just let me visit with my dog or cat”. We are not a multi level hierarchy of management; however, to safely administer each region we require Team Leaders and Registered Evaluators. To qualify as a Registered Evaluator with Therapeutic Paws of Canada a candidate must demonstrate significant knowledge of dog and or cat behaviour and possess hands-on experience.  For those interested in either of these positions please click on “Contact Us” and email or phone the Programme Team Leader.
