Foster Care
- I am interested in fostering*
  Select All That Apply
- If there is a specific animal or animals you are interested in fostering, please indicate whom:
- What level of care are you comfortable providing?*
  Select All That Apply
- Tell us a little bit about your household and why you want to foster. What would your ideal foster pet be? What do you NOT want out of a foster experience? What are your strengths as a foster parent?*
- We prefer that while you are fostering for Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends, you are not fostering for any other rescue to avoid any type of altercation or situation between rescue pets**
  - Yes, I am currently fostering pets
  - No, I am not currently fostering pets
- Unless otherwise discussed, Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends asks that our foster parents keep their foster animals until we find them a forever home (except in cases of emergency). We understand that some fosters take a little longer to get adopted. For example, a puppy (short-term) gets adopted rather quickly compared to a senior or sick/injured dog (long-term). Would you consider yourself a Short-Term foster or a Long-Term foster?*
  - Long-Term
  - Short-Term
  - It doesn't matter
- If the foster does not think the animal is a good match for their home, they agree to keep the animal in their care while Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends find a new placement for the animal. Are you comfortable with these expectations?*
  - Yes
  - No
- As an Animal Foster Volunteer, you will be responsible for providing adequate food and fresh water, socialization, attention, affection, and a close eye on the animal's health. If we have donated food or if providing food yourself will create a hardship for you, we will be happy to provide food or provide reimbursement. For reimbursement, Animal Foster Volunteer must seek approval before purchasing, save, and submit receipts. Do you understand these requirements?*
  - Yes
  - No
- Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends always do home visits for their foster parents to ensure it is a safe environment for the pet. This will be done before you get your foster pet, or at the time of receiving your pet. Do you agree to this home visit?*
  - Yes
  - No
- Be mindful not all dogs are friendly and an altercation can ensue. Be sure children do not walk the foster where a leash can be dropped. Walking the foster without a leash is not permitted. Do not let out or off the leash if your yard is not fenced in. Do not leave outside alone, tied up, or unsupervised. We do not approve of doggie doors. There are bufo toads and other harmful creatures and things that can be dangerous. You also need to make sure the foster cannot dig under the fence or get out of the yard somehow.*
  - Yes, I agree
  - No, I do not agree
Foster Agreement
Please read carefully before selecting, "Yes, I Agree" for each section below.
Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends (Saving Grace) will be allowed to reasonably inspect the premises in which the animal(s) will be maintained or are maintained, from time to time, for the purpose of determining the suitability of those premises for the care and maintenance of the animal(s).*
- Yes, I agree
If you decide to become a foster for Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends:
- You agree to surrender the foster animal(s) to Saving Grace when a permanent adoptive home is found. While foster parents' input is valued and solicited regarding prospective homes, Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends will ultimately approve or disapprove of all prospective adopters. If a friend or acquaintance is interested in adopting your foster animal, they are required to follow the standard adoption approval process (application, home visit, etc) and pay the standard adoption fee.*
  - Yes, I agree
- Unless otherwise discussed, Saving Grace asks that our foster parents keep their foster animals until we find them a forever home (except in cases of emergency). Depending on the adoptability of the animal, we expect this to take a few weeks to a few months. If the foster does not think the animal is a good match for their home, they agree to keep the animal in their care while Saving Grace finds a new placement for the animal. Are you comfortable with these expectations?*
  - Yes, I agree
- As an Animal Foster Volunteer, at my own expense, I agree to provide proper and sufficient food and water, shelter, socialization and kind treatment. I agree to feed proper and sufficient food and water, bathe/groom, exercise, and socialize the foster animal(s) as appropriate. I agree to never hit, kick or abuse the animal in any way. I understand that I shall not leave the animal(s) unsupervised outside, and shall comply with all city, state and federal laws relating to animals. I also understand that I shall provide the above-described services without monetary compensation from Saving Grace.*
  - Yes, I agree
- As an Animal Foster Volunteer, I agree to administer a monthly heartworm pill (dogs only) and a monthly topical flea and tick medication provided by the rescue. When you are low on preventatives, please contact the Rescue so that the Rescue can send you more*
  - Yes, I agree
- Should your foster animal display any signs of injury (regardless of how minor it is perceived to be) or illness (regular coughing or sneezing, diarrhea, or vomiting), we ask that you notify Saving Grace immediately so we can determine if the animal needs medical care.*
  - Yes, I agree
- Foster agrees and understands that if any animal in their care requires emergency vet visits, due to their negligence, the rescue will hold the foster caretaker responsible for all fees incurred if it is determined by the board the negligence was caused by the foster caretaker.*
  - Yes, I agree
- I agree to contact Saving Grace immediately, and provide transportation at any time, should veterinary medical care be needed for the animal(s). Saving Grace works with veterinarians who are familiar with shelter/rescue medicine. If the foster animal needs medical care of any kind, I have the option to contact Saving Grace immediately and follow their instructions. Foster animals may go to a foster parent’s personal vet at the cost of the foster parent. Saving Grace cannot be responsible for vet costs at unapproved veterinarians.v*
  - Yes, I agree
OUR PRIMARY RESCUE VETERINARIAN IS: Just Paws Animal Hospital 11091 Sheridan St. Cooper City, FL 33026 954-392-4567. We have a few other vets in Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties.
- I acknowledge and understand that, as an Animal Foster Volunteer for Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends, Inc., I am not covered by workers' compensation or any other insurance policy through Saving Grace and Her Furry Friends, Inc. for any damages or injuries that may be sustained from fostering.*
  - Yes, I agree
