How to Become a Foster
Our fosters are a huge part of our
success, and we cannot rescue unwanted pets and make them available for
adoption without foster home space.
Tara's House Needs Fosters!
What do Fosters do?
Tara's House Fosters are responsible for the day-to-day care of our dogs until they are adopted. This includes walking, feeding, socializing, starting house-training and medical treatments... basically you will do everything with our dogs that you would with your own. Fosters also help our dogs transition for shelter live to home life and are often the first people that make them feel safe and sound.... You help them be loved pets again!
Our Fosters provide all food and other consumables our dogs will need while in your care; Tara's House will cover any medical exams, treatments and medications until adoptions are finalized.
Fosters are expected to meet with approved applicants to facilitate meetings with their desired dogs and to transport your charges to and from our monthly adoption shows.
How can my Family become a Foster Home?
Fosters must meet the same requirements as an adoption applicant and go through the same process outlined on our Adoption Center. To begin the process all you need to do is complete our online adoption application indicating your desire to foster in lieu of desired dog.
If approved to foster our dogs, you will be expected to sign a legally binding contract with Tara's House. You may review our foster contract here.
A Commitment...
Fostering for Tara's House is a huge responsibility and represents a great time commitment. You will be responsible for the daily care of our rescued pets and help them transition from shelter life to home life. If you do not have the time or resources to provide food, transportation and other means, please do not apply to be a foster. If you have any questions please contact us at info@tarashouse.net.
