The Honey On Duty Project
A traveling, trauma-informed, service-dog-powered project dedicated to delivering healing and hope, one visit at a time.
Co-Founded by Jason Hofmann
Where Pet Care Meets Purpose
Jason Hofmann is the owner and Animal Behavior College (ABC) certified dog trainer at 203 Pet Service, with 29 years of professional pet care experience. He founded 203 Pet Service in 2004 and has led the company for 22 years, building a team of salaried W-2 employees dedicated to exceptional pet care.
Jason is also a proud co-founder of The Honey On Duty Project. He has assisted with Honey's training and knows her as both a handler and a personal friend. His deep knowledge of canine behavior helped shape the standards and safety protocols that guide the project today.
That same commitment to care, trust, and professionalism is what drives 203 Pet Service every day.
“Honey isn't just a dog. She's a bridge. She walks into rooms where words fail and does what no medicine can: she reminds people they are seen, they matter, and they are not alone.”

Programs & Initiatives
How Honey Brings Hope
Three core programs, one mission: delivering healing wherever it's needed most.
Healing Visits
Honey and her handler Stefan visit hospitals, hospice facilities, and care homes, bringing calm, comfort, and genuine connection to patients and their families during some of life's hardest moments.
Crisis & Community Response
When communities face tragedy, The Honey On Duty Project responds. Honey provides trauma-informed support to survivors, first responders, and community members navigating grief and crisis.
The HoneyGram Project
Handwritten notes of hope, delivered by Honey, to children in hospice, hospital patients, and first responders. A small gesture that carries enormous weight.
Trauma-Informed. Dog-Powered. Community-Driven.
The Honey On Duty Project operates on the belief that healing is not a luxury. It's a right. By combining the science of animal-assisted therapy with trauma-informed care practices, Honey and her team meet people exactly where they are.
As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, every dollar donated goes directly toward expanding their reach: more visits, more HoneyGrams, more hope.
