Is this normal?

I wanted to volunteer/work with animals, so I signed a form to help at Petco and PetSmart and to take care of the cats there. Although I got assigned to go to somebody's house instead of a store. Is this normal?

Seems legit.

Being told to go to a stranger's house is never "legit." It is a potentially unsafe situation.

@greenmountaingal: Man, you've no faith in humanity.
@greenmountaingal: No! Petco and Petsmart have volunteers that help the 'foster parents' with the animals which is at their homes.

@CookiePounder: Humanity is a vague concept. It's individuals I'd worry about. A lot of people here think this situation is OK because it's part of the way Pet Smart takes care of animals...so maybe It is OK. But it's never wrong to ask questions when something makes you hesitate.
