Golden Dog Adventure Co. Partners with Cornerstone VNA to Support Pet Peace of Mind Program

A Community-Driven Effort to Support Hospice Patients and Their Animal Companions

Golden Dog Adventure Co. and Cornerstone VNA are proud to announce a partnership to raise awareness and funding for the Pet Peace of Mind® (PPOM) program at Cornerstone VNA, a compassionate initiative that ensures hospice patients can keep their beloved pets by their side during end-of-life care.

Through this collaboration, Golden Dog Adventure Co. will leverage its community of dog lovers to support Cornerstone VNA’s PPOM program through volunteer recruitment, awareness campaigns, and fundraising efforts. The synergy between the two organizations—both rooted in compassion, community, and the human-animal bond—creates a powerful alliance to care for people and their pets during one of life’s most vulnerable transitions.

“Pets are family, especially during difficult times,” said Jennifer Ufkin, RN, MSN, President/CEO of Cornerstone VNA. “As a Pet Peace of Mind partner since 2016, we’re able to provide practical support to patients who want to keep their pets close. Adding a new partnership with Golden Dog Adventure Co. gives us another wonderful way to engage pet lovers and recruit the volunteers we need to expand our services across New Hampshire and Maine.”

The partnership includes volunteer recruitment to help with pet walking, feeding, and rehoming support, as well as targeted campaigns during National Hospice and Palliative Care Month in November. Golden Dog Adventure Co. will also provide promotional support through events and social media outreach, encouraging its members to give back to the community in a meaningful way.

“Our community is passionate about pets and the people who love them,” said Traci Bisson, Owner and Founder of Golden Dog Adventure Co. “We’re honored to support Cornerstone VNA’s mission. Together, we can give peace of mind to patients and ensure their pets continue to receive the love and care they deserve.”

The partnership reflects a growing recognition of how pets play an essential role in emotional and physical wellbeing, especially during hospice care. With shared values and complementary strengths, Cornerstone VNA and Golden Dog Adventure Co. are creating a future where no patient has to choose between their health and their pet.
