EBARR Eastbay animal rescue and refuge

Become a Foster Parent!

EBARR is a shelter free rescue. All of the EBARR animals waiting for adoption are in foster homes. The number of animals we can help at one time is relevant to how many foster homes there are available.

Fostering a pet can be a rewarding experience for the entire family. Animals provide countless hours of entertainment and enrichment. Many families love the idea of fostering so they can teach their children the value of responsibility of caring for an animal. Foster families also should feel proud that they have helped save a life of a homeless animal. Shelter animals are kept in cages 100% of the time, EBARR animals are never kept in caged, except when being shown at the weekend adoption sites.

What are my obligations as a pet foster parent?

Your main obligation for fostering a pet is to love and socialize the animal in your care.
You must also be able to deliver and pick up your foster pet at our adoption locations on weekends, at least two times a month.

Do I have to provide food and supplies or pay for veterinary costs?

No, we provide everything.

I have other pets and or kids, is that ok?

As long as we have completed a home inspection and feel comfortable that all animals will get along and be safe.

Call us immediately so we can arrange for veterinary care.

How long will I have the pet for?
