Pet-friendly retirement homes encourage seniors to keep the companions they love. Of course, many people moving into a retirement residence do not want to part with the dog or cat they love. The bond we form and the health benefits of keeping pets are well understood. For other people, a community allowing pets may open the possibility of acquiring one in the future. Having animals around adds an extra dimension to a community so long as everyone is considerate of others, of course.

There are many known health benefits with relation to pets, and for older people who may be widowed or otherwise alone, the benefits are many:
The benefits of pet ownership to seniors is shown by several significant clinical studies. Here’s a survey, looking at animals’ value in improving seniors’ quality of life and health.
A 2013 study by the American Heart Association showed that pet owners deal with the physical effects of stress better than those who do not own a pet. Specifically, the study found that pet owners demonstrate lower blood pressure and show smaller increases in heart rate. They even had lower resting baseline heart rates and blood pressure, and recovered more quickly from stress.
A 2009 study by the Vanier Institute found that pet ownership can reduce stress, "reduce loneliness of residents in long-term care communities, improve your health during difficult times, and help you lower your risk of heart disease or other medical conditions by forcing you to exercise.
A study from 1980 looked at survival of heart attack patients, comparing pet owners to others without. The one-year survival rate for those with pets was 94 percent, while those without a pet had a lower rate of 72 percent. Put another way, the mortality rate was over four times as high for those without pets: 28 percent versus only 6 percent.
A study at the University of Guelph looked at seniors living at home. It found that those who had no pet required up to 60% more health care, measured both in time spent in care and the costs pertaining.
Other anecdotal evidence has shown that people recover better from disease if they have the company of a beloved pet.
The upshot of this is that it is good for retirement homes to be pet-friendly, since residents will recover faster, be healthier and live longer.
A 2002 study showed that when a dog was integrated into an Alzheimer’s and dementia patients’ ward, there was a significant drop in behaviour problems, especially noticeable during the day.
Another study the same year (at Purdue University), studied the food intake of Alzheimer’s Patients after the introduction of fish aquariums into their environment. Researchers found that nutritional intake increased, and patients gained 1.65 pounds on average over a six week period.
At Symphony Senior Living in Orleans, the resident pet is a Shih-Tzu named Angel, allowed to run the halls but not enter the dining area. She sleeps with her “mom” (one of the residents) but she is also shared with the entire community. She finds her food in several places throughout the community, including the office of Rachelle Vroom, the community’s Executive Director.
At Davenhill Senior Living in Toronto, the memory care floor includes a soothing room that allows people to sit beside a fish aquarium. It’s shown to have a calming effect on dementia sufferers.
Holiday Retirement is a retirement home provider that understands the life-affirming power of pets. Each Holiday community welcomes pets at no additional charge. There are many other retirement homes that encourage pets as well. “When choosing a retirement community, I never looked at any other because my little Shi-Poo Jenny could live here with me,” says resident, Elveda Elznic. “She loves the attention from the residents and staff, and enjoys playing with her poodle friend Tequi, who lives here too.” Mary Wheeler is Tequi’s owner. She enjoys the companionship and sense of routine that owning a pet provides. “Tequi is my constant companion,” Wheeler said.
Please note that communities with pet-friendly policies are also beholden to other clientele. Before allowing you to move in with your pet, they will ensure your dog or cat is friendly and non-disruptive. Of course, you will be expected to take full responsibility for your pet’s proper grooming, feeding and other care. If seniors are not able to provide proper care for their pet, or if it is deemed harmful or undesirable by other clientele, the family may be asked to remove the pet from the premises. Communities retain the right to refuse any pet at the time of admission, including concerns about allergies, etc. Consult with communities listed below to learn details of policies.
