Foster

We will ALWAYS be open to fosters for animals of any kind. We primarily have a need for those willing to take in dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens, but would still love to hear from you if you’re able to foster a gerbil, livestock, or anything in between. Though our focus is centered around dogs and cats, we do our best to never turn down an animal in need, and look to have resources in as many places as possible.

Since we are a non-profit organization and currently run based on volunteers, we can only accept animals if we have a foster home lined up and/or in the works. We can’t do this without you!

Why Should You Foster An Animal?

When a pet is placed in foster care, this is usually the first time in a long time, that they have had a comfy, safe, and loving environment to rest their heads. From a life of prior neglect and/or abandonment, this is often times the first opportunity they have to learn trust and loyalty from not only their new temporary human family, but their other animal friends as well (when deemed appropriate).

We try to be as flexible as possible with your schedule. Please remember we are volunteer run at the end of they day, so a 24-hour response turn-around in non-emergency situations is common.

You can foster anywhere from one day to years; it truly depends on your and the animals comfortability, how long you want to commit, etc. We will never leave an animal in your care that is not suitable for either you or them.

It’s REWARDING & FUN. For fellow animal lovers, there is no better feeling than witnessing an animal flourish under your care, especially if they had any issues prior to being in your placement. Watching your foster pet end up in their forever may be bittersweet, trust us, we’ve been there.. BUT this is the whole mission and is one of the most heartwarming feelings. Just remember, another pet placed in their forever home not only gives us the opportunity to continue helping more animals, but hopefully gives you the desire to continue fostering and helping our mission as well

Foster FAQ’s

What if I want to adopt my foster?

This situation is more common than you think, and we are happy to let you have the first opportunity at adoption. We will require that you fill out our adoption form and go through a similar applicant screening as any other interested family. The only thing to note is that is important for you and your family to promptly decide on adoption so that we do not uphold any other interested families.

I work all day… Can I still foster?

Do I get paid to foster?

Who pays for food, transport, vet bills, etc.?
