On Monday afternoons, Canopy guests are greeted by Layla, a Great Pyrenees and a certified pet therapy dog.

She and her owner, Mary Lynn Perry, are members of Pets With A Mission, a pet therapy organization dedicated to bringing comfort and encouragement to those in need. Mary Lynn began providing pet therapy at Memorial Hermann in 2016 and later brought comfort and companionship to Canopy survivors and caregivers.

A lifelong animal lover, Mary Lynn has pursued her passion for helping animals throughout her life. Before becoming involved in pet therapy, she volunteered with Operation Pets Alive, and became a Texas-permitted wildlife rehabilitator. Today, she continues to volunteer twice a month with the Houston SPCA. Mary Lynn encourages others to volunteer in ways that align with their passions. Her advice is simple: find something you truly love and share it with others.

Mary Lynn and Layla are such a bright addition to our Canopy team!
