Different variables, such as the type of animal, the context, and the duration of human-animal contact, can influence the effects of animal companionship on health. This umbrella review aims to assess how interactions between animals and older adults impact health and wellbeing.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>After the definition and registration of the review protocol, five electronic medical databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library) were systematically searched in June 2024 to find relevant second-level studies. Systematic reviews or meta-analyses assessing the association between exposure to animals and the physical, emotional, and mental health and well-being of individuals aged 60 years or older were included; studies focusing exclusively on animal-assisted treatments, conducted on older adults with a specific disease or medical condition, and written in a language other than English were excluded. The extracted information comprised the main author and year, objectives, review type, participant details, context and setting, number of databases searched with date range, number and design of studies included, quality ratings, methods used to synthesize evidence, and outcomes. The data extracted from qualitative and quantitative research were presented according to the different types of exposure and summarized for the different outcomes using a tabular presentation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The main findings regard the beneficial effects of dog-assisted interventions on social interaction and loneliness of older adults living in facilities; also, dog owners appeared to engage in high levels of walking activity. Qualitative research reported that older adults attributed to pets an important role and a variety of beneficial impacts (i.e., emotional support, sensory engagement, reciprocal interactions); some negative aspects related to pet ownership were also described as worries for pets\u2019 health, and pets\u2019 related expenses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Older adults living in facilities could benefit from dog assisted interventions to improve social interactions and decrease loneliness.
