Description

Be a Sitter for a Future Assistance Dog!

Do you want to cuddle with a life-changing dog?

Sitters host dogs in their homes for 6 or less days at a time. Sitters help when the dogs' Raisers (also known as 'fosters') go on vacation.

You choose dogs to bring into your home based on:

  • Dates they are looking for hosts
  • How old they are (you choose from dogs who are between 10 weeks and 2.5 years of age)
  • What city they are located in

Can Do Canines provides the dog food and monthly preventatives, and covers the vet care costs!

Sitters should expect to:

  • Provide daily exercise for the dog
  • Help maintain household manners
  • Bring the dogs to vet appointments in New Hope, MN
  • Give the dog time to take it easy and be a puppy

By helping as a Sitter for a future assistance dog, you are enhancing the quality of life for people with disabilities. These dogs will grow up to bring their people more freedom, independence, and peace of mind.
