Online Foster Application Steps
The Arlington Animal Services Center Foster Pet Program is currently recruiting fosters to open their hearts to our shelter pets in need. The foster coordinator will provide the fosters with needed supplies such as food and will assist fosters through the program.
The foster animals from the shelter include:
- Kittens or puppies too young to be in the shelter environment
- Temporary (short-term) emergency neonate kitten fosters
- Animals that need a break from the shelter environment
- Animals recovering from illness or injury
- Pets with special medical or behavioral needs
The average stay in a foster home is two to four weeks. However, some animals stay only a few days while others will need to stay longer than four weeks.
There is always a slight health risk when exposing your pets to other animals, however, the health risks are minimal if the foster parent’s animals are currently vaccinated, maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle, and are not too elderly or very young.
