Meet adoptable pets live from their foster homes.

15-minute video calls with the foster who knows the pet best. No full application before the meeting. No vet references. No home visit. Just meet the pet.

How It Works

1

Browse pets with live hours

Each pet has a window when their foster is available — immediate or upcoming. Read their full profile: personality, requirements, contract terms, and how transport works.

2

Answer 6 quick questions

About your living situation, pet experience, and timeline. Takes about 60 seconds. Light friction — just enough to make sure the meeting is worth everyone's time.

3

Pick a 15-minute slot

Choose a time during the foster's live hours. They'll be ready with the pet nearby.

4

Meet the pet — live, at home

Join a video call. The foster introduces you to the pet in their actual home. You see how they move, react, and play. Ask anything — the foster has lived with this pet for weeks or months.

5

Assess the match

Talk through whether the pet fits your home. The foster knows this pet best — they'll help you figure out if it's right. No pressure. No script.

6

Decide

If it's a match, the rescue will guide you through next steps — contract, adoption fee, and transport coordination. If it's not a fit, the foster may suggest other pets who might be.

Why This Is Different

Typical online adoption Live Hours
Meeting the pet Days after applying (or never, where demand exceeds supply) Immediate to scheduled
Decision "We'll review your application" Informed by the foster — some empowered to decide on the call
Transport Uncertain how it works Clearly communicated — reinforced by foster conversation
Time commitment Open-ended, uncertain 15 minutes

What a Listing Looks Like

Every pet gets a page with everything upfront — profile, requirements, and contract promises — all visible before you book a slot.

This is a pilot. We're testing, learning, and iterating with participating rescues, starting with Blues City Animal Rescue in Memphis. We're running small — a few fosters, a few pets, a few hours a week — to find out if meeting a pet and their foster over video leads to faster, better adoptions. If the answer is yes, we expand. Your participation shapes what comes next.
