Our pet foster carers provide a full time caring home for pets who have been temporarily separated from their owners while they are unable to care for them. You will be fully responsible for the animal in your care and their daily needs including feeding, cleaning, grooming, exercising and socialising.
PFSS provides a unique service, supporting pet owners who are facing ill health, temporary homelessness or domestic abuse. Our volunteer foster carers give a pet a temporary “home from home”, taking responsibility for their care, feeding and exercise, freeing the owner from worry at a difficult time.
