Become a Pupsitter
Give a Future Guide Dog a Home Away from Home!
Fidelco is looking for new pupsitters to open their hearts and homes to help care for our amazing young German Shepherds—future guide dogs in training!
Pupsitting is perfect for individuals or families who want to make a difference without a full-time commitment. You’ll provide a loving home for up to a week when a puppy raiser is on vacation or during long holiday weekends as part of our “Home for the Pawlidays” program. Rather than staying in the kennel, these dogs enjoy a warm, enriching environment thanks to volunteers like you.
Fidelco dogs that are in the formal training reside in Fidelco’s kennel when they are not training. These amazing dogs have grown up in the homes of volunteer puppy raisers, so they are very used to the sights, sounds and experiences of homelife. Being brought back into this familiar environment benefits their training while enhancing their emotional well-being.
Apply today and give a future guide dog a home-away-from-home—whether it’s a quick vacation stay or a holiday weekend!
