Can my pet come visit me?

Family pets (dogs and cats only) are welcome to visit from October 1 through April 1. Pet visitation is prohibited from April 1 through October 1 due to the high prevalence of ticks and tick-borne illness in NH.

For complete details on the policy and expectations, please speak with your case manager.

  • Proof of current vaccinations, especially rabies, must be shown to the receptionist at the front desk before the pet is brought into the building or for a visit outside.
  • All dogs must be on a leash and cats on a lead or in a carrier at all times.
  • Visits would take place in the lobby, patient room, and/or on outside patio areas, weather permitting.

The pet visitation policy is subject to change based on any environmental or infection control risks that may develop. If the policy is not followed, we reserve the right request that the pet leave the building.
