EBARR Eastbay animal rescue and refuge

Become an animal foster family or volunteer at EBARR today!

Animals provide countless hours of entertainment and enrichment. Many families love the idea of fostering so they can teach their children the value of responsibility of caring for an animal. Foster families also should feel proud that they have helped save a life of a homeless animal. Shelter animals are kept in cages 100% of the time, EBARR animals are never kept in cages, except when being shown at the weekend adoption sites.


	What types of volunteer opportunities are there at EBARR?
	We hold weekend adoption events almost every weekend as well as community events that we participate in every few weeks. We also have the need for animal transport to and from events as well as veterinary visits, etc.

	How old do you have to be to volunteer?
	You have to be at least 16 years old, with parental signature and agreement and 18 years old without. All volunteers must sign an agreement and waiver.

	What are my obligations as a pet foster parent?
	Your main obligation for fostering a pet is to love and socialize the animal in your care. You must also be able to deliver and pick up your foster pet at our adoption locations on weekends, at least two times a month.

	Do I have to provide food and supplies or pay for veterinary costs?
	No, we provide everything. There is no cost to you!

	I have other pets and or kids, is that ok?
	As long as we have completed a home inspection and feel comfortable that all animals will get along and be safe.

	What happens if my foster pet gets sick?
	Call us immediately so we can arrange for veterinary care.

	How long will I have the pet for?
	Until the animal is adopted. The more weekends you are available to drop off and pick up the greater chance the animal has to be adopted.

	What if I get attached to the pet?
	As a foster family, you get first chance to adopt if you are so inclined.

	How do I become a pet Foster Parent or Volunteer?
	If interested in fostering a pet or volunteering at EBARR, simply fill out our Foster Agreement or Volunteer Agreement and drop it off to a volunteer at one of the adoption locations and agree to a home visit by one of our representatives.
