Please check all animals in which you are interested in fostering:

Fostering is a commitment to both the dog and to Paw Placement. As a rescue, we are able to save lives because of foster families like you and we rely on the dedication of our foster families. Are you able to commit to fostering this animal until a forever home can be found (this may take weeks or months)?

How many days a week do you work?*

How many hours a work day will the animal be alone?*

Some animals do not do well with young children or with men. We want to best match foster pet to your home situation What are the ages of and your relationship to all those living in the home?

Due rental laws and pet deposits, you must own your home in order to foster with Paw Placement. Do you own your home?

Should your foster animal require vetwork, are you willing to take the animal to the nearest approved Paw Placement vet partner? All appointments will be made at your convenience, as is reasonable.

Homeless animals come from unknown circumstances. Even if they are normally well-behaved dogs, there may be behavioral issues to work through as the animal adjusts to your home. This is an important reality with fostering. How do you feel about this and how experienced are you with dog behavior?

Paw Placement has guidelines for training and behavior modification. With the introduction of a foster dog into your home, these methods may need to be applied to your own pets. Are you willing to use the methods we recommend with your animals?

Paw Placement routinely arranges a home visit with new fosters and adoptive homes. The goal is not to check on cleanliness or housekeeping, but to make sure that the home is or could be compatible with a rescue dog or cat. The yard is checked to make sure it is securely fenced, the sleeping area for the animal is inspected and any training necessary is discussed. Are you willing to have a home visit prior to fostering?
