  • By submitting this application, you certify that the information you have provided is true.


    You are authorizing us to contact your landlord, veterinarian, and references, as applicable.


    You understand that there is a possibility of health or injury risk to humans and personal pets when fostering animals. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Shelter to Home, Inc., its volunteers, agents, and Board of Directors, from any and all liability arising out of or in connection with any harm or injury sustained by you, any member of your household including your pets, or your property as a result of any activity connected with you fostering or volunteering for Shelter to Home, which includes fostering at your home, or visiting or volunteering at a Shelter to Home location or any other location..


    Shelter to Home has a strict "no drama" policy. We are here for the animals and we do not tolerate behavior that results in unnecessary drama and takes the focus off our mission. Volunteers, including fosters, are expected to treat each other with respect, as well as everyone else they come into contact with through the organization and otherwise. This includes contact in person as well as electronically, such as with social media. If you are a volunteer with Shelter to Home, your behavior reflects on the organization whether it's directly related to your activities with us or not. We reserve the right to terminate the relationship with any person who, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, does not abide by this policy.


    Finally, you are authorizing Shelter to Home to perform a commercial background check on you. We reserve the right to deny your foster application for any reason, including for anything we find in the background check, views or opinions inconsistent with our mission, and for any other reason. We do this for the safety of the pets we rescue, as well as for the safety of the organization and all people involved. If we deny your application, we will explain the reason. If you wish to appeal the decision, we will reconsider but our decision on appeal is final.
