Age of Foster Applicant

Over 18 years old

Under 18 years old

You have indicated that you are under 18 years old. We thank you for your interest of in fostering, but at this time, the NS SPCA Foster Program requires all Fosters to be over the age of 18. We encourage you to re-apply at that time. Please see our Volunteering section on our webpage for other ways that you may be able to help shelter animals.

Do you:

Own your home

Rent

It is your responsibility to ensure that your lease allows foster animals. Any damage done to any property by an NS SPCA foster animal is the responsibility of the renter. Please provide the name and phone number of your landlord below.

Do you have reliable access to a vehicle and the ability to come to the shelter for necessary health checks for your foster animal(s)?

Yes

No

Fosters may be required to travel to and from the shelter multiple times in a foster period. This would include for pick up and return of foster animals, but also for appointments and picking up necessary supplies. If you are not able to meet this requirement, we encourage you to see our Volunteering section on our webpage for other ways that you may be able to help shelter animals.

What is your primary reason for wanting to foster animals with the NS SPCA?

I want to help animals that are not well-suited to life in a shelter.

I want to volunteer with shelter animals, but cannot commit to the schedule requirements for in-person volunteering.

I want to volunteer with shelter animals, but my closest shelter is not accepting volunteers.

I want to have animals in my life, but am unable to commit to a permanent pet at this time.

I want to adopt and I think that fostering is a good way to find the right "fit".
