Welcome to Pet Pals.
Pet Pals is an exciting program that brings volunteer dogs to UW
Children's Hospital to visit pediatric patients. Many of these children are
hospitalized for extended periods with very severe diseases. This program recruits, screens,
and trains teams of Volunteer Dogs and their owners to visit children who
are patients at UW Children's Hospital. Our goal is to provide these very special kids with safe and
enjoyable visits from loving canine friends.

How can I help?
Participating volunteer teams
successfully complete a three-tiered
system of evaluation and must

to the program. Each team visits the
hospital 1-3 times each month, either
on tuesday evenings or Saturday
afternoons.
