PACT supports our nation's hospital patients and military personnel by providing safe, in-home emergency foster care for their pets. Join our team - volunteer to provide a temporary pet foster home for someone in need today.
Foster placements range from 2 months to 2 years. All homes are visited by PACT volunteers to ensure they meet our requirments. Fosters are reimbursed by the animal's owner for food and medical costs of the foster pet.

Mission Statement
PACT for Animals is a national nonprofit that provides free, background checked foster services. PACT gives peace of mind to children, veterans and adults in acute care at local hospitals, and soldiers on deployment, by placing their pets in temporary foster homes until their owners can be reunited with the companion animals they love.
Description
Every year thousands of companion animals are surrendered into animal shelters due to temporary crises. By providing access to temporary foster homes for animals when their human companions are temporarily unable to care for them, PACT helps reduce the number of animals surrendered to animal shelters. PACT saves the lives of beloved companion animals at risk of abandonment and gives peace of mind to their human companions until they can be safely reunited. We are the ONLY active non-profit organization in the country providing this free, essential service in the animal welfare community.
PACT's offers a Military Foster Program and a Hospital Foster Program. These programs keep people and their companion animals together with every successful crisis rescue, foster placement, and joyful reunion.
All PACT Programs are FREE! PACT’s Foster Program Managers carefully screen every case, ensuring that both foster families and animals are compatible. Foster families are in constant contact with the military/hospitalized owners providing regular updates, including photos, messages and videos of their beloved pets.
At PACT we believe that a temporary crisis shouldn't mean a forever goodbye!
