When you foster, you agree to take a homeless pet into your home and give him or her love, care and attention, either for a predetermined period of time or until the dog is adopted. Fostering a pet is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have (other than adopting, of course). By taking an animal in need temporarily into your home you’re:

• giving your foster pet the time he/she needs to be ready for adoption

• helping us learn more about the pet so he/she can end up in the best home possible

• socializing the pet to a home environment and possibly getting him/her used to being around other pets and different types of people

 

As a foster, you:

• Must be able to bring the animal to our veterinarian for vaccine boosters, de-worming, or any other medical treatment if necessary.

• Must be able to transport animals to outside adoption events as needed.

• Must be available to meet with potential adopters who wish to see the pet.

• Pets residing in the home must be current on vaccines.
