Foster

Fostering is a way to give back to your community in the comfort of your own home. Everything you need is provided and you will always have 24/7 support from the Tails of Tallassee Rescue team!

Weekend Sitters

Can’t commit to a full-time foster dog? We always need sitters for holidays or weekends when our foster families need a break or travel.

Support Us

There are so many ways to support our mission even if you cannot foster a dog:

Attend our percentage and outreach events, volunteer to bring a foster dog along for a day outing, transport supplies, spread the word about our amazon wish-list, available dogs, and make sure to follow us on social media!

Have questions for the team? Reach out!

Two children are below, one reaching up and another with long blonde hair, seemingly trying to see the dog.

Volunteer Reviews

“I’ve only fostered with TOTR for a couple days, and was a little nervous because it was my first time fostering, but from the very beginning they have made it so easy by being so supportive and open to helping in any way!! It is such a unique rescue because they are apart of it every step of the way, supporting, checking up, and offering help constantly! I’ve never felt nervous to ask a question and I know they are always there for the best interest of not only these AMAZING animals we rescue, but for the fosters and people who put in the work too!! I would recommend fostering with TOTR to anybody, they are the best!!!!!”

“Fostering with Tails of Tallassee Rescue has been such a great experience. They have always been just a text away and are happy to answer any questions, which made the whole process feel so much less overwhelming. They genuinely care about every dog and work hard to make sure each one finds the right forever home. They also care about the foster families and make sure you have the support and resources you need along the way. Their guidance made fostering an easy and rewarding experience”

“We fostered Tilly through @tot_rescue in July. It was such a rewarding experience to see her grow from a shy girl into the confident puppy she is today! And @tot_rescue was there every step of the way.”
