Pet Love Inc.

Remembering a loved one...

At one time or another, we have all experienced the grief of losing a loved one, whether human or fur-baby. We often are at a loss and desire a way to do something to honor their memory. Flowers are nice, but they only last a few days. A plant or tree is nice as well, but are you sure the recipient wants the responsibility of its care? Next time you find yourself in this situation, consider making a tax-deductible donation to "Pet Love, Inc." in memory of your loved one and know that your support allows us to continue sharing our pets love with others in need.

Pet Love, Inc.

The purpose of the Pet Love Animal-Assisted Therapy (AAT) is to enhance the daily living of clients by providing opportunities to interact with animals in a positive, nurturing environment. AAT programs evolved as a result of numerous studies addressing the beneficial aspects of the human/animal bond. Many of the studies have shown that interaction with animals can reduce stress, lower blood pressure and enhance self-esteem... not to mention warm, fuzzy animals just feel good! Pet Love, Inc. is financed, directed and staffed by its volunteers, and is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. The program provides service to many facilities in the greater Louisville area. These include nursing homes, hospitals, psychiatric and rehabilitation centers and classrooms for special-needs children. In addition, volunteers participate in community outreach events such as wellness fairs and summer or day camps for the mentally and physically challenged. All volunteers are required to attend an orientation workshop. The workshop is designed to familiarize the volunteers with every facet of our program. We present a brief history of animal-assisted therapy, explain Pet Love policies and procedures, acquaint the new volunteer with various populations they may encounter and address zoonotic diseases, animal health and stress in therapy pets. The animal volunteers are required to attend and pass temperament testing. Each pet must have on file a medical evaulation form completed by his/her veterinarian and an annual update. All animals are constantly monitored for behavior, cleanliness and hygiene.
