Crisis Pet Fostering During the Holidays

Providing Life Saving Care During the Holidays

The holiday season is a joyful yet hectic time, with shifting schedules, visitors, and festive décor – there may be additional obstacles to creating a calm, predictable environment when providing temporary pet housing through BestyBnB. Simple steps, like keeping feeding and walking routines consistent, help pets feel secure, even when everything around them feels a little different.

As celebrations pick up, keep an eye out for holiday hazards that curious pets can get into. Seasonal plants, rich foods, tinsel, and gift wrapping can all pose risks. Creating a quiet, pet-safe space away from the bustle gives foster pets room to decompress and helps them adjust at their own pace. A cozy bed, fresh water, and familiar toys can make all the difference.

Most importantly, remember that the time, comfort, and stability a BestyBnB Pet Caregiver provides during the holidays is life-saving for pets in crisis. This care ensures pets stay safe and supported until they can reunite with their families. Thank you to our Pet Caregivers for fostering compassion this season, and for giving vulnerable pets a loving place to land when they need it most!
