Join our Foster Care Team
On-call foster families are always needed for dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small animals across the province. You provide love, care, and a safe temporary home for vulnerable animals and we provide food, supplies, and medical care. Together, we improve the quality of life for these animals.
Steps to becoming a foster:
- Find the BC SPCA location nearest to you on the location list.
- View the Foster Care role description to see if fostering is the right fit for you.
- If you’re ready to open your home to a furry friend in the next six months, fill in an application.
