Animal-assisted stress reduction and relief in Zurich for artists, crews & VIPs: Züripets® stands for quality, heart and trust - not only our regular customers know this, but also event organizers, artists and film productions. With our Züripets® Backstage Therapy™ service, we specifically use certified therapy and visiting dogs for emotional relief in the VIP area - professionally accompanied, in compliance with animal welfare regulations and with a great deal of sensitivity.
24/7 mental health support
What is Züripets® Backstage Therapy™and what is it for?
A mobile, internationally deployable service for animal-assisted stress reduction in sensitive areas such as artists’ dressing rooms, backstage areas, TV studios, or VIP lounges. Our certified therapy and visitation dogs provide companionship, calm, and a sense of security—exactly when tension is rising, time is running out, or a quiet moment offers a source of strength.
Whether it’s a TV production, concert tour, festival, or fashion event—we provide support discreetly, empathetically, and to the highest standards. Confidentiality, hygiene protocols, and animal welfare are our top priorities in every assignment.
Our sessions can be customized to fit individual needs and are flexibly adapted to on-site procedures—professionally coordinated with stage management, security, and artist support. Züripets® Backstage Therapy™ is not a stage act, but a respectful contribution to the emotional well-being of people in the spotlight.
Our regular services such as day and vacation care will of course remain independent of this.
The service provides support in dealing with:
Stress and burnout
Performance pressure (on- and off-stage)
Addictions and coping with addiction
Relationship problems and conflicts
Work-life balance and satisfaction
Self-awareness, self-control and self-care
Loneliness and isolation
Maintaining physical & mental health
