Do you want to cuddle with a life-changing dog?

Sitters host (aka foster) dogs in their homes for 6 or less days at a time to allow their long-term Raisers to have breaks to go on vacation or manage illness or injuries.

Dogs are typically between 8 weeks and 2.5 years of age.

You choose dogs to bring into your home based on: dates they are looking for hosts, how old they are, and what city they are located in.

Can Do Canines covers the costs of the dog food, vet visits, and monthly preventatives!

No experience is needed to work with our animals. We’re with you every step of the way!

By helping as a Sitter for a future assistance dog, you are enhancing the quality of life for people with disabilities. These dogs will grow up to bring their people more freedom, independence and peace of mind.
