A message from PAWS of Coronado:

Our facility is out of space. We need foster families now more than ever. If you can open your heart and home to a dog or cat in need please complete an application.

  • There is no financial responsibility. PAWS provides supplies and medical care.
  • It’s rewarding to help an anaimal in need.
  • Animals in foster homes have a higher percentage of being adopted into forever homes.
  • There is no time commitment for fostering. A long weekend, a week, a month. Any amount of time will help.
