Creekside Animal Rescue

​CAR is made possible by a variety of volunteers! Our main need is dog and cat fosters. We also need people to help at events, transport animals, transport supplies, as well as remote volunteering like data entry or social media help! 

​

Fosters: The foundation of Creekside is our dedicated network of foster homes throughout Central Indiana. They open their hearts and homes to

animals in need of a temporary place to stay.  

​

The foster homes provide shelter, care, and love until the animals are adopted into forever homes.

We are ALWAYS in need of foster homes.  The more homes we have, the more animals we can save! The rescue provides the supplies for the animals in care ... the home just supplies the shelter and love. The rescue receives donations of food, litter, toys, treats and other supplies from a growing network of supporters. The rescue also pays for the vetting the animals receive while in foster care.  The funds for  the vetting come from adoption fees, fundraisers, and tax deductible gifts.

 

If you would like to be a foster home, please send us your name and email through our contact page. We will send you an application.  We will review your application and meet with you to perform a home check.

 

When you apply, you let us know what type(s) of animal(s) you are willing to foster.  When we are contacted about an animal that needs a foster home, we reach out to you to see if you would be willing to care for it. You always are able to say "no, not at this time".  The primary requirement for foster homes, in addition to the obvious loving care for the animal, is to bring the animal to a minimum of one adoption event per month. You are not required to stay at the event, although your presence can be a vital key to success for the animal finding a happy forever home.
