Looking to spread extra love and joy this holiday season? Ace of Hearts Dog Rescue is seeking passionate fosters to provide temporary or long-term homes for our rescue dogs. By fostering, you’ll not only save a dog from a high-kill shelter but also be part of their journey toward finding a forever family.
Fostering is an incredibly rewarding experience! We provide all the supplies, food, and medical care your foster dog needs. Plus, we offer a stipend to cover gas for medical appointments and adoption events. Whether you can commit long-term or just have a couple of weeks to spare this holiday season, we’d love to have you join our team!
What You Need to Know Before Signing Up:
Please read thoroughly before reaching out to ensure fostering is the right fit for you:
- Must be 21 years or older.
- No children under the age of 8 in the home.
- No small dogs or cats in the home (larger dogs are okay).
- Comfortable with larger dogs (50-90 lbs on average).
- Must be okay fostering shelter dogs with unknown backgrounds.
- Adoption events are mandatory: Attend every other Saturday at the Petco in West Hollywood (this is also when supplies and stipends are provided).
- Approval from all roommates, family members, landlords, etc., is required before fostering.
Why Fostering Matters:
Every day, countless dogs face euthanasia simply because shelters are overcrowded. By fostering, you give these dogs a safe and loving environment to decompress and heal. While some may come with quirks—like needing potty training or extra patience—you’ll see firsthand how love and care can transform a scared shelter dog into a happy, confident companion.
We are always looking for long-term fosters who can commit to at least a four-week minimum (ideally until the dog is adopted) so the dogs don’t have to move around so much. However, we’re also happy to have fosters who can help out short-term for emergencies or the holidays. A one- to two-week commitment can still save a life!
Why Foster During the Holidays?
There’s no better way to spread holiday cheer than by giving a rescue dog a warm and loving place to call home. Whether you’re curled up watching holiday movies or taking a winter walk, fostering is a wonderful way to share the joy of the season.
