What is Operation Foster?
PACT (People + Animals = Companions Together) is pleased to offer Operation Foster, a program driven by a nationwide community of foster homes who will foster pets when their owners are unable to care for them. Our goal is to help those in need when their pets need a loving, safe place to live. Currently, we offer this service to active military and veterans when they are deployed or receiving medical care.
Someone needing to have their pet fostered starts the process by completing a fostering application. We then match the need against our network of available fosters.
Operation Foster is supported by hundreds of fosters throughout the country and we are always looking for more foster homes. We also do this without collecting a fee and are always looking for volunteers and donations to support our program.
What do we do?
We support the community through unique programs such as our emergency Pet Foster Programs, helping animal caregivers with their emergency needs, and running educational seminars. We know that sharing knowledge and supporting the community is the best way to improve the lives of companion animals and their human owners.

Our Goal
PACT for Animals is working towards the goal of having no companion animals unwillingly submitted to animal shelters due to a temporary military deployment or medical crisis.
Why PACT?
Because PACT is making a difference
PACT has received applications from more than 400 pet owners in just the last year, and has personally assisted many of these. We are growing at an amazing pace and expanding to help more people across the country. As more people learn about PACT, they are driving and even flying their pets from all over the country to our safe and supported Foster Homes, because there is no one in their area that can help.
Because PACT is there for you – fast
No one knows when an unexpected medical crisis will happen, and when it does, PACTs team leaps into action.
