Doggie Foster Families

Print

foster-familyIf you don’t feel happy about your dog staying at home and cared for by one of our Professional Pet Sitters, then try our Doggie Foster Families.

Your dog will enjoy staying with a loving family that has been carefully selected and suitably matched to accommodate your dog’s individual needs.

The foster family will follow your dogs existing daily routine, of exercising, feeding and sleeping arrangements.

We’ll arrange an initial in-home consultation with the foster family prior to your departure so you can see where they live and how your dog’s daily routine will fit into their life.

Your dog will be able to inspect the property and therefore will be familiar with all the smells and settle into their holiday home even quicker.

We provide a complete service including collection and delivery ensuring parting is less stressful for you and your pet.

Our foster families are animal lovers and have met our strict guidelines. Some of our foster families are retired, active people and miss having a pet. Some are at home caring for children and would like a friendly dog to care for, exercise and be part of the family.

Dogs must be vaccinated, de-sexed, house trained and well socialised.

Vaccinations Required

  • Vanguard 5 (Parvovirus, Distemper, Hepatitits, Adenovirus 2, Parainfluenza)
  • Kennel Cough (Also called Bordetella) This vaccine is NOT normally given unless you advise your vet that your dog will be boarded

We have a comprehensive form that you can fill out as a part of the Doggie Foster Families process to ensure that your dog will be matched with a suitable foster family. Please email us via the contact us page or call and we can email this form out to you.
