Our small foster/adoption committee can quickly get swamped with applications to review. Please remember that we are volunteers with busy work/ family schedules on top of volunteering. When you submit an application, please allow 3-5 days for a reply. You can expect the first reply to be via email. Please also be prepared for a home visit or to be asked to send in photos of your home and yard. Thank you!

Please note that all sections that have a red * next to the question must be answered before you can submit the application

Fostering is one of the most wonderful gifts you can give a rescued animal. The amount of animals we can save DIRECTLY depends on the amount of foster homes we have.

Once you submit this Foster Application and it is reviewed by the adoption committee, we will arrange for a home check to make sure your living area is safe for the animal. We will then have a meet & greet between your family/pets & the new foster animal. We will do our best to make sure the animal will be compatible with your lifestyle. EARS will provide all food, litter, toys, crates and pay for any necessary vetting (i.e spay/neuter are basic vetting that we pay for).

In return we ask you provide a safe, loving and nurturing home for the pet and provide transport to and from veterinary appointments, and possibly Adoption Events!
*Some animals may require extra training and socialization depending on their previous living circumstances. We ask that you do your best to provide minimal training and we ask that you reach out to an EARS representative for additional training assistance and/or advice.
Thank you for your interest in becoming an EARS foster home.

I will do my best to attend adoption events with my foster pet so that my foster pet has the best opportunity to find loving permanent homes
