Donate

PAWS would not be able to operate without the generous financial support from individuals and organisations. Just like our dogs, donations come in all sizes, and we appreciate each and every one. Thanks to your support, hundreds of people every week will enjoy the love and comfort a dog can bring.  

With everything we do at PAWS Pet Therapy, the safety and wellbeing of our teams and clients is a top priority. The PAWS commitment to the ever-changing COVID situation is no exception.

DOGS... making life better

Therapy, assistance, support, companion, wellbeing. These are just a few of the terms used to describe the role of dogs in society. But what is the difference? And, what is the right dog to meet your needs?

PAWS Pet Therapy... feel the love

A not-for-profit charitable organisation that trains & supports volunteers  and their dogs to provide specialised pet therapy around Australia.

We'd like to shine a light on a remarkable group of local heroes whose dedication and compassion make a profound difference in our community. This small but mighty team of volunteers works across the Wollondilly and Wingecarribee Shires, supporting the elderly, preserving our natural environment, and enhancing the lives of people with disabilities and those in need.

With a generous donation of $500.00 they have enabled us to offer doggy visits to individuals who are palliative and living at home in Wingecarribee.

Thank you to these extraordinary volunteers for their support and for bringing hope and comfort to those who need it most. Your work is truly invaluable, and we are deeply grateful for the work you do.

Sending Paws-itive vibes to the 2024 finalists of the Westfield Local Hero Award

We know first paw how winning this award can make a world of difference. A huge shoutout to the Westfield Liverpool Local Heroes 2023 for showing us just how impactful it can be!

Thanks to the generous funds we received, our clever dogs and their amazing human companions are spreading joy and comfort in hospitals, aged care facilities, and beyond. There's nothing quite like the unconditional love that only dogs can give.

A big thank you to everyone who voted for us! Your support helps us continue our mission of bringing a bit of furry happiness to those who need it most.
