Foster
We are incredibly lucky to have such a dedicated team of fosters and we are committed to supporting them through every step of their fostering journey. As we don’t use kennels or cattieries, our fosters are our most valued volunteers. Read their comments below and learn about our foster programme below.
Our Process
STEP 1. Complete an application form with some basic information, previous experience and what you’re looking for in a new pet.
STEP 2. We carry out a home check to make sure your home is safe for a rescue animal.
STEP 3. Attend a video meeting with us and other newly-approved fosters. We’ll give our tips for the most common issues and answer any questions.
STEP 4. You'll be invited into our fosters’ community where you can see our waiting list of animals needing foster. We’ll work with you to find the best match and arrange their transport to you.
STEP 5. We’ll offer advice and support throughout your foster’s journey. After two weeks, you’ll complete an assessment so we can advertise your foster for adoption. Interested parties may meet your foster once we have fully vetted them and their home.
“There are so many people in the team with such different experiences but we all have one common goal - to help animals. When anyone has a problem or a success or is crying happy tears at their foster being adopted, we all gather round with support.”

“I especially love the nervous dogs! The happy bouncy puppies are great and fun but for me, there's nothing better than watching a little broken soul slowly heal in front of you every day and knowing you played a massive part in that transition.”
