A global fundraising event to bring therapy animal visits to more communities will be held September 27
BELLEVUE, Wash., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Pet lovers across the globe are gearing up for the eighth annual World’s Largest Pet Walk, taking place on Saturday, September 27. Presented by Wellness Pet Company, this fundraiser benefits Pet Partners, the nation’s leading therapy animal organization. Walkers of all ages—and species—are invited to step out in support of therapy animal teams that bring comfort and connection to the people who need it most: veterans, children, older adults, first responders, and others facing physical, mental, or emotional challenges.
Unlike typical fundraiser walks, there’s no set course or time. Participants can walk solo, with family and friends, at work, or in their local community. You can walk anywhere, anytime. Whether you stroll around the block or hike your favorite trail, with or without a pet, this event is about celebrating the human-animal bond and raising vital funds for the Pet Partners Therapy Animal Program.
“The World’s Largest Pet Walk is more than a fundraiser: it’s an event that gets us moving with our pets, demonstrating one more way they positively impact human health,” said C. Annie Peters, President & CEO of Pet Partners. “And, with every step, walkers help support therapy animals that make meaningful visits to people in need throughout the year.”
Registration for this event is free, and participants are encouraged to fundraise in support of therapy animal visits. Fundraisers who reach key milestones by August 15 will receive special event gear, including a commemorative bandanna or t-shirt. Additional incentive levels and recognition opportunities are available throughout the campaign.
Pet Partners is urging individuals, families, companies, and community groups to walk, fundraise, and spread the word. All proceeds help recruit, train, and register volunteer therapy animal teams who deliver these life-changing visits.
