About this Event

Caring for a beloved pet through chronic illness, injury, or age-related changes can be demanding—physically, emotionally, and mentally.Whether you're coordinating daily treatments, managing vet visits, or simply adjusting to a “new normal,” this monthly in-person support group is here for you.

Led by a Veterinary Social Worker, this group provides a safe, welcoming space to:

  • Share your caregiving experiences with others who understand
  • Learn practical tools for managing stress and avoiding burnout
  • Access supportive resources and referrals
  • Feel seen, supported, and less alone in the caregiving journey

This group is open to anyone currently caring for a pet with complex needs. Whether you're new to caregiving or have been on this path for a while, you are welcome here.
