Virtual Pet Competition 2025

Showcase your pet and support your local Hospice

Celebrate 40 years of St. Rocco's Hospice with our NEW Virtual Pet Competition!

Whether you're a pet owner or an animal enthusiast, this virtual event promises fun and entertainment for everyone. At St. Rocco's, we understand the importance of animals and their positive impact on a person's well-being. Being around animals during challenging times can provide comfort, support, and bring back happy memories when we need it most. That's why we want you to showcase your pet's unique talents and charm, and share with us the unique stories of your pets for a chance to win a range of exciting prizes!

You can enter your pet into one of the following categories:

• Top Dog
• Purrfect Feline
• Tiny but Mighty
• Gentle Giants
• Extraordinary Exotics
