About Pawster
Pawster’s mission is to support people in crisis by providing compassionate, temporary care for their pets. We match pets with foster homes suited to each animal’s individual needs. Throughout the process, we support the foster homes to ensure a rewarding and meaningful experience, and we help connect owners with the resources they need to get back on their feet.
People find themselves in need of short-term foster care for their pets for any variety of reasons, including hospitalization, loss of housing, domestic violence, addiction treatment, incarceration, natural disaster, and more. As an organization, we aim to walk alongside families in crisis as they journey toward wholeness and work to reunite with their pets.
Pawster Nashville only exists because of the dedication of passionate volunteers, including a volunteer board of directors. Without people willing to offer their time and energy to helping pets and people in crisis, Pawster could not fulfill its mission.
