Foster Care

Open your heart and home to an animal in need.

The foster program is a lifeline for special-needs pets.

Foster volunteers open their homes to provide temporary care for cats, dogs, kittens and puppies. 

A quiet, stress-free, loving environment gives every foster pet a better chance at a happy, healthy life with their forever family. We have a list of pets requiring foster homes in order to get ready for adoption.

Introducing Couch Crashers!

Couch Crashers is a short-term fostering program for adult dogs who could benefit from some time outside of the shelter. Participants can expect to host an adoptable dog for 1 to 3 days, with all the necessary food and supplies provided by the Maryland SPCA.

Still not convinced? Here are some reasons to become a Couch Crashers host:

  • Provides the dog with a much-needed break from the stressful shelter environment
  • Discover if you are ready for a dog without the commitment
  • Animal gets to experience a proper home life
  • You gain a temporary best friend and snuggle buddy
  • Boosts the animal’s chances of being adopted due to collected home-life experience
