What I love most about my job is making the kids of St. Jude smile and helping them get moving after surgery. Belly rubs. All the belly rubs.

What is PAWS at Play?

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

Since 2019, PAWS at Play program has brightened the days of patients, families and employees. As trained hospital service dogs, we hold patients’ paws, celebrate successes and milestones along the most difficult journeys. We help any of our patient friends no matter the background. The best part of our job? While things may look a little different today, we offer unconditional love and acceptance through social interaction.
