The Yorkshire Rescue - volunteering - animal fostering

with The Yorkshire Rescue

We are a small online animal rescue, focussing primarily on rescuing and rehoming dogs and cats, active across Yorkshire. We operate with the backup of fosterers, and we want to expand our work. We need your help to achieve this!

We are looking for experienced, committed dog and cat people to add to our fosterer register, to step in and temporarily home an animal in need. You will be supported by our Rescue Coordinator and Cat Lady.

Skills or experience required?:

Rescue dogs very often have issues. Ideally, you'll have previous dog experience. You'll understand how important it is to get a good fit for a dog, and it may therefore take time to find the right foster dog for you.

Rescue cats and kittens will generally need someone who has a spare room that can be used to house them separately from existing family pets. We'll be happy to support fosterers with limited experience.

For either animal role, we will ask you to complete a fosterer application form, so we have a good idea of your home set up to ensure a good fit.
