Foster Application

Prior to fostering or adopting from Fresh Start all of your pets in your household must be spayed/neutered, vaccinated and licensed. Fresh Start is not responsible for any injury or damage caused to your house, property, pet or persons while you have one of our animals in your care. We are trusting you, as the foster, to appropiately handle situations that may occur while our animal is in your care.

Our animals will be vetted prior to entering your home. Some animals may be on a course of deworming medications or may be too sick to recieve their vaccines. If this is the case with the animal you intend to foster you must be able to adequately keep them seperated from your pet(s) for the duration of their treatment. We are not responsible for any vetting needed to your personal pet. As a fosterer you run the risk of cross contamination and that is why we ask you keep them seperated until our pet is medically cleared. This is uncommon and most animals going to foster will be fully vetted but we like to keep an open line of communication with our fosters and lay out all possible senarios.

If anything should happen to our animal in your care (illness, injury, death, etc.) we will cover the costs of taking care of our animal BUT they MUST be taken to our vet for treatment.

So, you're interested in fostering for Fresh Start Animal Rescue League? Congrats! Here is a small (but not limited to) list of things you may deal with or we ask you to handle while fostering our animals!

Medications- some of our animals are on medications to treat ailements such as lyme, heartworm, anaplasmosis & ehrlichia.
Potty training- most of our pets do not come potty trained, they are either too young or came from situations in which they were never taught.
Vet appointments- some of our animals require more than one vet visit and it will be required of you to take them to and from their follow ups (we pay the bill as they are our animals, but the must see OUR vet.)
Meet and Greets- we will set them up and make arrangements with you on when and where they need to be. Please keep in mind that we are dealing with multiple people's schedules and this can sometimes be last minute.
Picking up supplies- if you are running low on something (food, medications, cat litter, etc.) it will be required of you to reach out to someone at FSARL and arrangements will be made for you to collect from us.
Illnesses- sometimes, puppies and kittens get sick. If this is the case you must reach out to us immediately so we can get you medications or, if necessary, vet appointments.
