PETS Network Requirements


Program Participant Requirements
To ensure the best possible care for your pet, we have a few program requirements:

  • The program is 30 days only and is designed as a short-term solution.
  • Participants must be working with a human service agency to qualify.
  • A lease proving residency or proof of current residency within 30 days of entering the program is required.
  • Pets must be up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered. If they are not, we will provide these services at no charge.
  • A compatible foster must be available to care for your pet.

A full description of the program requirements can be found here HERE, and our P.E.T.S. Network Guidelines found HERE. 

Please Note:

  • We are unable to provide temporary care for reasons relating to personal choice such as relocating for work, travel, pet restrictions in current rental, awaiting closing on a house, pregnancy of pet-parent, etc.
  • Program acceptance is not guaranteed, even if you qualify for all the requirements listed above, due to space limitations and number of available fosters.
