Sign up to become a Foster Hero!

Benton Animal Services

Thank you for offering to be a hero to shelter pets searching for a furever-loving home. Pets, like people need a place to feel safe; a place where they can be themselves and let their guard down. Many pets have lived tough lives before entering our shelter, and foster heroes like YOU get these adoptable pets out of the shelter and into a comfortable home until they find their furever families. While we have many options for fostering available, our biggest need is for dedicated fosters to care for pets until adoption. We are currently looking for numerous long-term foster heroes---are you one of them? We'll make it easy for you, and provide an orientation when you're ready to foster. We even have suplies we will provide! If you feel this is something you can commit to, and that you are confident in your ability to keep this foster separate from other resident animals and people should an issue arise, please complete the form below and we will contact you. Make sure to click "submit" at the end! For questions specific to filling out the application, email our Foster Coordinator at mallori.howard@bentonar.org
