A Little R&R Animal Sanctuary 

Foster a Life. Change a Life.

​

Consider opening your home to a pet in need. Fostering provides a safe, loving environment for animals while they wait for their forever families, and it truly saves lives.

​

We are always accepting new foster applications. Placement of an animal will depend on available funding and finding the right match for your home, family, and lifestyle. Once you are approved as a foster, you will have the opportunity to view the animals we are rescuing and those currently in need of foster care.

​

By fostering, you are giving an animal a chance to feel safe, loved, and cared for while helping us make room to rescue another pet in need.

​

What fostering looks like:

• The rescue covers veterinary care

• Supplies will be provided

• You provide a safe and loving temporary home

• You help prepare the pet for their forever family

 

Your home can be the first step in a rescued animal’s new life.
