Pet Buddy Program

 

The Pet Buddy Program was established to honor Tracey Gould, our wonderful Care Manager, and her 25 years with Senior Coastsiders.

Having a pet increases a sense of well-being, social interaction, and physical activity for seniors. Spending time with a pet can decrease blood pressure, stress, symptoms of depression, and feelings of loneliness. Through donations and volunteers, our Pet Buddy Program ensures that seniors with pets are supported.
