Faithful Paws Pet Therapy is a nonprofit, volunteer-run and organized group of certified therapy pet teams serving the Greater Houston area. They provide training, AKC Canine Good Citizen testing, support, and insurance for members who volunteer with their dogs, cats and rabbits in animal assisted activities.

Founded in 1997 by Connie Richards, they connect certified therapy pets with individuals in schools, hospitals, senior living communities, and other facilities that request our services.

Their mission is to bring unconditional love to people they visit through the healing power of pets.
