Testimonials and Stories
Meet Mater!
Through a new partnership with Assured Hospice - Centralia and Pet Peace of mind we were able to help a hospice patient and their family by getting their dog, Mater, the proper care that he needed.
This new partnership aims to support patients on hospice by allowing us to take some of the burden when their pets are needing care.
From Maters family: "Our family is so grateful for everything that this project did for Mater, we have had Mater since he was a puppy and now, he is 11 years old. He is our companion and a part of our family. We really appreciate the Assured Hospice Pet Peace of Mind Team for transporting mater to his first appointment. Thank you, it meant so much to us, there was no way we could have been able to afford this. Our family is very so thankful for this project and thankful that the Visiting Nurses Foundation and the Assured Hospice Pet Peace of Mind program can help more pets"
Mater had a growth under his eye that needed to be removed.
