Humane Society of Walden Foster Application

Opening your home allows our shelter to take in more animals that need help. In addition, fostering offers one-on-one attention and loving comfort that only a home setting can offer, which is precisely what some animals need. During an animal’s stay in a foster home, we can learn if the animal is house/litter trained, good with children and other animals, and the personality of each foster animal.

The length of foster assignments varies based on the needs of the animal. You will receive an approximate duration before you commit to an animal. Some of our youngest foster animals need around-the-clock care including feedings every 2-3 hours while other foster animals can be left at home for up to ten hours at a time. We will match you with a foster assignment that works with your schedule, availability, and interests.

To be a HSW Foster, you must

  • Be at least 21 years of age, and
  • Resident pets must be spayed / neutered and up-to-date on applicable vaccinations
