Foster

Make a difference to a homeless dog or cat
ARF relies on foster homes to extend the reach of our small shelter. Due to the closing of our dog kennels, we need our fosters more than ever!

We need foster homes for puppies and kittens, senior animals and everything in between. ARF covers the veterinary care for your foster animal. In return, you provide a loving home and bring your foster pet to adoption events!

Our team will work to match you with a foster pet that will fit in with your lifestyle, family and pets. Submit an application to get started!

Types of fostering:
Traditional fostering - open your home to a dog or cat until they're adopted! Our foster team will help match you with a pet that fits well in your home.

Bottle feeding kittens and puppies - sometimes we get tiny animals that need bottle feeding or supplemental feeding - maybe they've been found without a mom or mom is unable to nurse! These special fosters give our tiniest ARFans a chance! ARF provides supplies and training.

Dog heartworm treatment - Heartworms are a huge problem for stray dogs in our area. Over 25% of adult dogs we rescue have heartworms! Some need immediate heartworm treatment that includes strict kennel rest for 6-8 weeks. A heartworm foster should have a spare room for a kennel so their foster can stay calm and rest. Heartworm treatment dogs need short leash walks to potty only.

Senior pets  - senior animals need loving homes to help with their age related needs. This can include medications, more frequent vet appointments and lots of love!

Weekend or short term fostering - can you open your home for a weekend while another foster is out of town? Or foster for a short period while we find a long term foster? We would love your help!
