Do you have a good-natured dog? Well why not volunteer with them at our pet friendly Residential Aged Care Site.

We are seeking dog owners to come and share their precious pooches. During your visits, you guide your dog around the cottage greeting residents, you may also sit and chat as residents engage with your dog during your 1 hour visit.

- Calm, patient and gentle in nature

- Up-to-date with vaccinations and treatment of worms and fleas

- Nails should be short and blunt. Freshly cut nails can be sharp if not filed down.

- Dogs should be kept on a lead at all times.
