Our Foster Care Program - finding care for our most vulnerable critters.

If you love animals but can’t adopt, fostering is a great option.

Our foster program is key to STRAY HEARTS work. Foster families allow us to care for more animals and find more forever homes.

Situations foster care can benefit:

  • Pregnant and nursing mamas with litters.

  • Puppies who are safer outside the shelter environment.

  • Animals suffering from extreme stress caused by the shelter environment.

  • Animals recovering from surgery.

  • Short-term care when pet owners have unexpected emergencies.

  • Animals with behavioral challenges that need socialization.

Foster caregivers provide:

  • A safe and loving home.

  • Time and patience for the pet to relax and decompress.

  • Attention and care to learn a new routine and feel at home.

STRAY HEARTS provides:

  • All medical costs.

  • Food and supplies.

  • Weekly support visits.

Thank you to the PEDIGREE Foundation for their support.
