Opportunity Details

Foster a Dog


Fostering a dog with Pawster is the most rewarding volunteer opportunity for people who love dogs but don't want to adopt:

  • You get all the joy of having a dog in your home, without the long-term commitment.
  • Pawster provides all supplies and vet care, you just bring the love.
  • Anyone in Middle Tennessee can foster, even if you live in an apartment, have other pets, have kids, or travel! We make fostering accessible for everyone.
  • You will not get stuck with a foster dog. When you're ready to say goodbye, they'll go to another foster.

Pawster provides Crisis Foster Care for dogs and cats. When a dog owner is temporarily unable to care for their dog due to crisis, you foster their dog until the owner is back on their feet. Sign up to be a Pawster Foster, and you help a dog and their person. Invite a furry friend into your home today, and you will help keep a family together.  
 
Pawster provides all training and supplies. You just need to bring your time, energy and love. You decide how long you want to foster! 
 
Express interest below and we will be in touch to match you with a foster dog who is the right fit for you.
