Visit nursing home?

I was wondering if any sitters have personal animals that I could hire to visit my mom once a week in the nursing home. The only requirement the home has is that the dog/cat have proof of shots. We live in Lakeland, FL.

I think the girl scouts also come to visit earning a badge for it. You might check that out also.
