THIS IS AN UNPAID VOLUNTEER POSITION
Therapy dogs are becoming air travelers' best friends! These wonderful (and furry!) volunteers help take the stress out of air travel through a big hug, belly rub, head scratch, or paw five. As a member of the Gateway AVIATORS C.A.R.E. (Canines Around Relaxing Everyone) Team, handlers and their dogs will roam the passenger terminal during periods of peak flight activity to help de-stress and relax passengers. In addition, handlers are trained and able to assist passengers with airport questions and directions. C.A.R.E. Team members and their dogs are asked to volunteer at least two hours a week. Handlers are provided with a shirt and their dog is provided with a C.A.R.E. Team therapy dog vest.
