Bio
Ann Marie Hoff
I have had a great experience working with Veronica Zimmerman. She is in charge of the PetVIP program for Southern AZ Humane Society, and I can’t say enough great things about her. I participated in Pet Partners before PetVIP, and have trained for Pet therapy with other facilitators. There is a vast difference in Pet Therapy programs, with PetVIP program being heads and shoulders above PetPartners in attitude, information and support. In addition to that, Veronica is a superior facilitator of the PetVIP program. Veronica is organized, personable, knowledgeable and versatile. She makes the PetVIP program shine, and is a true asset to the Pet community in Tucson. I am writing this because I feel that everyone should know about the PetVIP program, that there is a choice when certifying to be a pet therapy team. If you are wondering if you and your pet can do more, can be a pet therapy team that brings joy and love to the many people who need it, you can. Veronica is very capable of helping both you and your pet reach their full potential.
