Thank you so much for inquiring about fostering! Foster homes are desperately needed so we can continue rescuingmore homeless dogs. Fostering provides a stable, loving environment for the new rescue to rehabilitate mentally and physically. Get-A-Life Pet Rescue provides all medical care, food, flea/tick & heart worm prevention, and you provide the nurturing they need. We match the foster dog withyour family so please be as specific as possible when completing your application regarding your pets’ personalities and your work schedule. As a foster parent, we may need you to attend or drop off your foster at some events and transport for vetting needs.

Please note some of the rescues have already had several homes prior to coming to usand may have some trouble adjusting. Fostering is very rewarding but there are several things to consider before you commit to fostering. He/she may bark or cry in the middle of the night. The dogmay vomit or have diarrhea. He/she maybe shy and unapproachable or aggressive. Some dogs have behavior challenges, weight issues and on going medical care. Please be specific as to what needs you are able to accommodate. The fosters may also want to be with you continuously and drown you in love. This commitment can take weeks to months, till the dog is placed in its permanent home. The foster parent plays a key roll in placing the dog in a forever home, by keeping Get-A-Life Pet Rescue informed of the dog’s personality and growth, as well asany problems or concerns you may encounter. This foster process is very rewarding to both foster family and dog! Maybe you too, will see your foster and his/her adopted family at the next Get-A-LifePet Rescue event!
