Job Description

The Naperville Area Humane Society is in need of pet therapy teams to join one of our two programs:

PAWSitive Pet Therapy volunteers visit area senior centers, nursing homes, and other facilities with their CGC certified dog (or therapy certified cat). All PAWSitive Therapy dogs are well behaved and current on vaccinations. The Naperville Area Humane Society works with the volunteers and facilities to ensure a perfect match for both parties.

Paws for Tales animal-assisted reading program provides schools with certified volunteer-dog team visits, which help children of all ages to feel more comfortable by reading aloud to a dog in a non-judgmental, supportive environment.

As a Paws for Tales or PAWSitive Pet Therapy volunteer you will visit area senior centers, schools, and other facilities with your own dog or cat that is certified for pet therapy. Your animal needs to be friendly, well-behaved and current on vaccinations.

There are numerous facilities throughout the surrounding communities that would like visits from our volunteers. We will work with you to find the right facility and the right schedule! There are facilities that would like visits during weekdays, weeknights, weekends or for special events, so the possibilities are endless!

We have a CGC evaluator on staff and are able to evaluate and certify animals right here at the humane society if you don't already have this certificate in place!

  • *All teams are provided with liability insurance while working within the community and representing the Naperville Area Humane Society.

If you are interested, please contact Julie Balsamo at jbalsamo@naperhumane.org.

Thank you!
