Elizz Paws
Volunteers and their dogs bring comforting canine affection to patients living in isolation, in a hospice or receiving end-of-life care.

Our furry friends are helping to provide hope and happiness with the unconditional love unique to dogs.
Research tells us that petting a dog lowers blood pressure, calms people and creates a comforting environment. Thanks to a generous gift from the Janet Holder Memorial Fund to cover start-up costs, this program brings dogs and their human companions for gentle visits with end-of-life clients, helping to ease their journey.
We’re actively seeking volunteer dogs and their owners who are interested in participating in the Greater Toronto or Windsor areas. For more information please click below to find out about our Volunteer Requirements:
