Provide as much information as possible about daily routines and pet habits to help your pet adjust to the new environment.

5. Stay***

Make sure you leave an emergency*** so that you or other emergency responders can be reached in a timely manner if needed.

Make sure the foster care location understands your wishes and requirements to avoid miscommunication or misunderstandings.
