If you’re looking for a way to give back without a lifelong commitment, fostering offers a meaningful way to be part of a life-saving journey. By opening your heart and home to a shelter dog, you’re providing something we can’t replicate in a facility setting: personal comfort, love, and a peaceful environment. Whether you’re with a dog for a weekend or a few months, your impact is immeasurable.
Fosters are a vital link in our mission to end the euthanasia of healthy, treatable pets. We provide veterinary care, food, crates, and supplies—you provide love and a safe space. Each dog’s foster stay is unique, ranging from a couple of weeks to several months. All we ask is a minimum commitment of one foster pet or litter per year. Whether you’re caring for a single dog, a litter of puppies, or stepping up during kitten season, your time is deeply valued.
Our Two Week Warrior program lets you give a shelter dog a short break from the facility—and a much-needed dose of attention and affection. These two-week stays help us learn more about the dog’s personality in a home setting, improving their chances of adoption. It’s perfect for those who want to help but can’t commit long-term. Ready to get started? Submit your foster application today, and our team will reach out to welcome you aboard.
