Foster Program
Do you have some extra space in your home and love in your heart to foster a pet in need? Then sign up to become a foster caretaker with us!
Fostering provides a temporary, comfortable setting outside of the shelter to animals who aren't yet ready for adoption. Some animals may only need a few days or some may need several weeks, but every foster opportunity helps prevent overcrowding at the shelter. Opening your home to a shelter animal can be a truly fun and rewarding experience.
Apply
If you would like to foster a shelter pet, complete and return the Foster a Shelter Pet Application (PDF) to Animal Services by email at bcasfoster@baltimorecountymd.gov, fax at 410-817-4257 or by regular mail to:
