JOIN OUR FOSTER TEAM

While an animal is in foster care with you, we will assess them over time to ensure that we can appropriately rehome them. 
Apply to Foster today so that we can guide you through the process and give you any support or training before a dog or cat arrives with you. 
 
The process is set out below. If you would like to chat before completing an application please email us at info@bekindrescue.com

Fostering is an incredibly rewarding way to be involved in animal rescue. 


Our foster families are the backbone of BeKind - they are the people who work day to day with our rescues in a loving and secure environment. We guide our fosters every step of the way and offer training, support and guidance for the duration of the animal being placed with them.


Many of these animals will have come from not-so-great situations, and their fosters give them the love and support they need to become ready for a forever home. When that time comes, the foster and the team work together to ensure the best-suited home for that animal is found. 

While a foster animal is in your care, BeKind will cover all reasonable veterinary costs, but we would usually expect you to meet the cost of food. All potential foster families will need to fill out our application form below, after which they will undergo a rigorous home check and process to become valued members of the team.


The process for becoming a foster parent is as follows:

  • Complete our foster application, and click on the 'Apply to Foster' button below.
  • Once returned we will assess suitability and one of our team will give you a call to discuss your application.
  • The application is then passed to our Home Check team, who will contact you to arrange a suitable day and time to come and carry out a home check.
  • The Home Checker will return the completed home check to us for assessment and you will receive a call to let you know the outcome. 

Our fosters go through a training process before an animal is placed and this will include all information on how we want things to be done to set you and the animal up for success. 


You can offer to foster any animal you wish to, there is no pressure. We will give as much information as possible and assess the animal so that we can ensure a good fit with your home. We match the animal to the home and the home to the animal.
