Why Foster?
The Urgent Need for Foster Homes
Every year, thousands of animals in the Bay Area end up in shelters. Many are perfectly adoptable but simply need a temporary home before finding their forever family. Unfortunately, shelters often reach capacity, leaving them with difficult choices.
Fostering helps relieve shelter overcrowding, ensures pets receive one-on-one care, and increases their chances of adoption.

Prepares animals for adoption by helping them adjust to a home routine.
Provides a flexible commitment—whether for a few weeks or a few months, fostering works around your lifestyle.
Creates a rewarding experience for fosters, knowing they’ve played a crucial role in a pet’s journey to a forever home.
