Charity Assisting Seniors With Pet Care Seeking Volunteers
August 16, 2023: ElderDog is a little-known charity that makes a big impact on the lives of seniors and their pets. The nation-wide registered charity offers free services to seniors whose mobility issues might be keeping them from properly caring for their canine companions.
Charity organizers want more seniors to be aware of this free support and they’re looking for more volunteers to get involved.
The program matches volunteers with seniors who can use assistance with dog walking, minor grooming, transportation to vet appointments and fostering during hospital stays.
