One of our most pressing needs is to find great foster homes for our rescue pets. We are looking for an individual or family who are experienced in fostering/caring for puppies!
Providing foster care will certainly be a rewarding experience as you are enabling the animal to go on to the greatest adventure - a place where he/she will be cherished and loved until he/she goes to a forever home.
Becoming a foster parent for SVPP means you will care for the puppies in your home for a temporary period of time. In return for your loving care, we provide donated food, supplies, and medical care as well as great marketing support to help in securing a great forever home for your pet. We will pair you up with a "buddy" who will get answers to your questions and make sure you feel supported all along the foster journey.

Mission Statement
Silicon Valley Pet Project (SVPP) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization committed to saving local at-risk shelter pets through rescue, community involvement, and education.
Description
Silicon Valley Pet Project is structured by service with dedicated volunteer teams focused on rescue operations, foster parent support, adoption programs, educational initiatives, advocacy and community outreach. We are excited to provide a great experience where adoption is the preferred way to bring a new pet home! For more information about Silicon Valley Pet Project, visit our website at www.svpetproject.org
In May of 2016, Silicon Valley Pet Project reopened The Dancing Cat adoption lounge in San Jose. From May 2016 to August 2018, SVPP supported The Dancing Cat operations to achieve sustainability. We are proud to have achieved this goal and The Dancing Cat operates as an independent organization offering a creative space for the cat-loving community and finding loving homes for adult cats.
In October 2018, Silicon Valley Pet Project opened Silicon Valley's first dog community center, Pup Plaza. Core to our mission is community involvement and education, and we can only truly achieve that mission by having a presence in the community. Our new pop-up space in San Jose allows dog lovers to celebrate, bond and learn with their dogs, or maybe find a dog to join their family. Our one-of-a-kind community space will host adoption events where you could meet your future best friend and offers many opportunities to get involved in animal welfare in our community.
