Become a Foster
Give a rescue pet a safe place to land while they wait for their forever home.
Foster homes give animals a temporary, loving environment after leaving the shelter and before adoption. Most pets do better in a home setting, where they can relax, adjust, and show more of their true personality.
What Does a Foster Provide?
- A safe, clean home
- Food and fresh water
- Exercise, attention, and daily care
- Love, patience, and a comfortable place to settle
- Feedback about the pet’s temperament, health, and special needs
- Transportation to scheduled veterinary appointments when needed
Roams to Homes covers approved veterinary expenses while the animal is in foster care.
What Can I Expect After Applying?
Roams to Homes has a variety of foster opportunities, including puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, and pets with medical needs. A foster coordinator can help match you with an animal that fits your home, schedule, and experience.
The length of a foster stay varies based on the animal’s needs and how quickly the right adoptive home is found. Some pets may need more time because of age, illness, behavior, or medical needs. Roams to Homes works with local veterinary partners to coordinate required care and will do its best to schedule appointments around your availability.
