FOSTER HOMES for Dogs URGENTLY NEEDED (PAID)

About This Jobs

The need for temporary homes for several dogs rescued from high-mortality Los Angeles shelters is urgent.

Fostering directly saves lives. Without people willing to foster, we are unable to rescue dogs from shelters when their time has run out. Ace of Hearts provides all necessary food, supplies, veterinary care, and support; your role is simply to provide a safe environment and affection. Even a short-term commitment of a few days can be the deciding factor between life and death for these animals.

Overview

There is an urgent requirement for foster homes for dogs rescued from Los Angeles shelters. Ace of Hearts covers all costs, including food, supplies, and veterinary care. Foster caregivers provide a temporary, safe home and affection, which helps dogs recover from shelter stress and find permanent adoption more quickly.

Dogs in Need of Safe Homes

• KING – American Bulldog: A loyal and energetic canine who flourishes with human interaction. Best suited as the sole pet in a household that provides consistent training and structure.
• BELLA – Gentle Senior Boxer: A sweet, calm 10-year-old boxer mix. She is gentle, affectionate, and quiet, and would thrive best in a peaceful home without cats.
• SCOUT – American Bulldog / German Shepherd Mix: A 7-month-old male with a significant personality. He is very sociable and enjoys the company of people, other dogs, and toys.
• AXEL – German Shepherd/Labrador Mix: A spirited, active 5-year-old dog who does well with other canine friends. Requires an experienced owner capable of providing firm training.
• IRIE – Terrier: An adorable 1-year-old bursting with playful, youthful energy. She is loyal, affectionate, and enjoys walks and cuddling.

Why Fostering is Important

When shelters reach capacity, dogs are euthanized simply because there is no available space. Fostering:

• Prevents dogs from being euthanized.
• Allows them to recover from the stressful shelter environment.
• Enables us to discover their genuine personality.
• Increases their chances of being adopted quickly.

Ace of Hearts covers all expenses, including food, medical care, supplies, and support. You provide the home and the affection.

Foster Requirements

• Must be 21 years of age or older.
• Must have obtained full approval from landlord, roommates, or family.
• Must be able to attend adoption events and supply pickups at Petco in West Hollywood every other Saturday.
• Must be able to transport the dog to and from veterinary appointments.
• Must commit to a minimum of 4 weeks of fostering. Short-term fosters for a few days are also critically needed.
