Number of vacancies
Unlimited
Location
Volunteers needed around the Cardiff and District area
Key activities
Housing, feeding, cleaning/grooming, socialising, exercising and sometimes training.
Times & preferred duration of commitment
Flexible, until the animal in your care has found a new permanent home.
Experience / skills / knowledge / personal qualities required
Fosterers are so important to the Branch. They not only save us money on expensive private boarding but, more importantly, they help socialise our animals until a new, permanent home is found.
We ask that you have a fair amount of experience in caring for the species of animal you are interested in fostering.
You need to own your own home or if you rent, written permission to foster animals will be required from your landlord.
You must be happy to allow potential adopters to visit and view the animal/s in your care, this is by appointment only and an Animal Welfare Officer can be present.
Fostering can be an extremely rewarding way of volunteering for the Branch. If you feel you can offer loving, temporary accommodation to any of our animals, please do get in touch for further information. We'd love to hear from you!
Training provided
Fosterers are given full support from our Branch Animal Welfare Officers.
Expenses
Food, bedding and other essentials are provided, together with veterinary care. On occasions fosterers may need to transport animals to veterinary appointments if necessary.
