Our Foster Home Team is at the heart of everything we do. Our success depends 100% on the network of people, just like you, who have opened their door to a dog in need! 
Fostering can be a fit for just about any family - and we work hard to make sure we find the right match for your lifestyle and home.
We firmly believe that to give these dogs the best chance at successful transitions into their adoptive homes, immersing them into a Foster environment that can provide the connections, routine and rules of being a family dog sets them up for amazing outcomes.


Foster homes provide care to animals on a short to long-term basis until the dog is adopted into its forever home. It is generally expected that once an animal is placed in a foster home, it would stay in this home until adoption.

We have a wide range of needs that come in, and we work with you to match the right foster to your home and experience level:
  • Abandoned Dogs/ Unclaimed from Local Pounds
  • Pregnant & nursing Mamas
  • Orphaned pups requiring bottle feeding
  • Owner Surrenders that need help finding a new fit for their dog
  • Dogs requiring medical care or recovering from injuries

As a Foster, we have your back! We provide:
  • All the food & supplies your foster pup requires
  • Covering all of the medical and veterinary costs for the dog
  • Toys & treats
  • Training & Support for you!

So what does a Dog Foster Parent do? 
  • Provide the dog with a warm, loving place to land
  • Teach or reaffirm basic training (we can support you with this!)
  • Help to assess and navigate the dog's personality, behaviors and traits
  • Take them to their veterinary exams 
  • Give us amazing feedback as to the perfect next family for them!

We're here to support you along the way! Our mission is to save as many dogs as possible, but to also create a network of volunteers who loves what they do!

Since our dogs are primarily in Edmonton, foster homes should be located within a one-hour radius.​​
