DGG brings certified pet therapy to individuals and communities throughout Cincinnati, Ohio and the Tri-State area (Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana). We come to you — wherever you are most comfortable.

 

Private Homes

The most comfortable and familiar environment for many individuals. In-home sessions eliminate transportation barriers and allow clients to receive therapy in their own space, on their own terms.

 

Schools

From elementary classrooms to high school wellness programs, DGG works with educators to integrate animal-assisted activities that support social-emotional learning, reading engagement, behavioral goals, and student mental health.

 

Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities

We partner with hospitals, outpatient clinics, and rehabilitation centers to deliver pet therapy as a complement to clinical treatment — reducing patient anxiety, improving mood, and supporting recovery.

 

Mental Health Facilities

DGG provides structured pet therapy programs within inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, designed to complement existing clinical care. Our handlers are trained to work appropriately within clinical environments and with populations in active treatment.

 

Senior Living & Assisted Living

Loneliness and isolation are serious health risks in senior populations. Regular therapy animal visits to senior living, assisted living, and memory care communities provide social stimulation, emotional warmth, and quality-of-life benefits that are measurable and lasting.

 

Hospice & Palliative Care Centers

With the deepest care and professionalism, DGG brings therapy animals into hospice and palliative care settings — honoring the gravity of the moment while offering genuine comfort to patients and their families.
