Foster pets to save lives

Fostering an adoptable animal in your home, even for just a few nights, is one of the most important things you can do to save a homeless pet’s life.

To become a foster parent:

  • You must complete an online Foster Parent Orientation
  • You must live within an hour of our Adoption Center.
  • You must be 18 years old.
  • You must be willing and able to bring your foster pet for medical appointments and adoptions.
  • You must own your home, or confirm with your landlord that foster pets are allowed.
  • You must be able to separate your foster pet from your personal pets if requested and required.
  • Everyone in your home must agree to foster, and if anyone in your home has pet allergies, those allergies must be properly managed.

Fostering FAQ’s

What’s a pet foster parent?
A pet foster parent is a parent for a dog. They take in the rescue dog as one of their own dogs until adopted. That means providing shelter, and love.
Afraid you’ll get attached?
Getting attached does happen to the best of us. We do listen to our fosters and what the best home is for the rescue dog. After all they know the dog well. If you do get attached to the dog then we understand. We would have you just cover the cost of the money we put out for that particular dog.
How long is the commitment?
The committment is for however long it is for the dog to be adopted. Unfortunetly, we do not have a facility and most fosters are full most of the time. We rely on our fosters and their committment. We never know how long it will take a dog to get adopted.
What about my own pets?
We will make sure that the foster fits in with your dogs as well. It is really important to do a meet n greet before placing a dog in a foster home.
What kind of pets are fostered?
We have dogs of all sizes and backgrounds. Our fosters let us know if they prefer small dogs, big dogs or puppies only. Remember our dogs are coming from all different backgrounds. They are not trained often when coming into a new home.
What else is required?
Patience, love, and understanding are required. Remember a dog does not speak the same language that we do. They have to be shown what to do. They need to be on consistant schedules and routines.
