– Pet sitting (usually for 3-7 days) for other PAWS foster parents who are traveling. This is a great option if you’ll be home for some holidays but not others, or can only make a short-term commitment!

– Committing to fostering a pet until they are adopted (a few weeks to a few months) if you won’t need a sitter during the holidays!

All types of pets are looking for foster homes, including cats and dogs with medical or behavioral needs, animals needing a break from the shelter due to stress, kittens and nursing mothers, and pets waiting to be reunited with their owners through PAWS’ Safety Net Program. There’s a foster animal to fit almost any household and lifestyle, so reach out today at foster@phillypaws.org!
