The Comfort of Companionship

Inside HopeWell’s Pawsitive Touch Program

At HopeWell Home Care, healing goes beyond medicine—it’s also about connection, joy, and emotional well-being. That belief inspired the creation of Pawsitive Touch, our in-home pet therapy program designed to support patients on every level: physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Through Pawsitive Touch, certified therapy dogs visit patients at home, offering companionship that reduces stress, boosts mood, and encourages gentle physical activity.

Whether it’s a quiet cuddle or a game of fetch to aid rehabilitation, each session is personalized to meet the patient’s unique needs.

From easing loneliness to fostering social connection, the presence of a well-trained dog can make all the difference. And because we pair dogs with patients based on temperament and care goals, each visit becomes more than a moment of comfort—it’s a step toward holistic healing.
