Our Vision
A world where seniors and their pets can spend their golden years together without the fear of being separated.
She chose to shift gears towards specifically helping senior citizens after thinking about the deep connection seniors have with their beloved pets, and the inevitable heartbreak that must result when they are no longer able to care for them after transitioning into assisted living.
The usual outcome in this situation is to either surrender the pet to a local animal shelter or entrust the pet to family or friends to resume care, but the separation can be incredibly devastating for both the pet and senior.
This led to an “a-ha” moment for Carmel when she thought of a solution that would allow the pet and senior to maintain their special bond through the provision of pet care assistance and personal visits, thereby promoting overall wellness and an enhancement in the quality of their lives. Thus Pet Porter Pals was born, and the mission to keeping seniors and their pets connected!
Carmel will expand Pet Porter Pals to personally caring for seniors’ pets in her own facility, eliminating the chance of the pet being in a shelter or bounced around various foster homes. This would not only give seniors peace of mind in knowing their precious pet would have a permanent home where they’re cared for, but that they would continue to see them on a regular basis.
Carmel truly believes the “a-ha” moment that created Pet Porter Pals will lead to so many special moments for seniors and their pets, which is the ultimate gratification.
