Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions
When will my adoption be finalized?
Adoptions are finalized after your application has been approved, a home, vet and reference check has been done and a meet & greet is successful. This can take anywhere from one week to a month.. It does vary case by case but we do work diligently to get our animals in their forever homes as soon as possible!
What are the fees?
Adoption fees vary based on the size and needs of each animal but in general, they range between $50-$350.
How long are foster commitments?
Foster commitments can be anywhere from a few days to a few months. It depends on each animal and the duration of each foster is discussed before any commitments are made.
My animals have all passed away. Do I still need to provide vet information on the application?
Yes. We ask that you provide information for any pet, alive or deceased, that you have had in your care for the past 7 years.
Do I need experience with animals to volunteer?
No! It can make it easier if you do but of course, it's not necessary. We also have volunteer opportunities that don't directly involve the animals. Fill out our volunteer application!
Is there a minimum age to volunteer?
To volunteer as an adult, we ask that you be at least 18 years of age. If you are under 18, we require a parent to volunteer with you. We do sign papers for volunteer/ service hours as well!
