I had an incredible time at the shelter! Everything from the location, dogs and other volunteers was wonderful. All of the dogs are obviously well loved and taken care of, and it was a great experience to be able to contribute to the shelter. The location is quite isolated in the countryside, but with the company of the dogs and other volunteers you really don't notice it. The only downside was having to leave the dogs at the end.

Helen was a lovely host, I had a good time staying with other volunteers. The tasks were clear and we also had enough time to rest. If you love dogs this is the best possible worldpackers opportunity! Sometimes we got muddy, but I had a great time regardless:)

Helen is super friendly, always supporting the dogs and she was always there if I had a question. Everything was as discussed and I always felt really respected and had a really great time! It's a wonderful place for all dog lovers to learn and gain experience. I really enjoyed the quiet environment where you could take a lot of time for the dogs but it was so hard to leave after you get to know all the dogs especially Rusty, Earnie und the puppies! Many thanks to Helen and the other volunteers Carmel and Alex for the wonderful time. I definitively want to come back!

Had a really good time working here. Helen really cares about all the dogs at the sanctuary and is doing great work running it. The other volunteers were also really nice to work and hang around with in the downtime. Would happily return in the future!

This experience is truly how you get to know the ins and outs of a dog's life. There is a set routine for feeding and walks that you will have to learn, it can seem overwhelming but by day 5 you've pretty much got it. You get to live with only volunteers, this is good for socialization and you learn much. Helen is a nice boss, she shows you how things work and lets you to it. The dogs are lovely and nothing to be scared of. Bulgaria is welcoming (at least during fall) it is a beautiful country.

This was my first volunteer experience and it was a good experience! If you love dogs then this experience will be great for you. You have to be committed to the dogs and be comfortable living along side them. It can be very overwhelming at first but the routine is the same each day so you pick it up naturally. However, with the routine being the same it sometimes can feel quite repetitive and days off are not guaranteed when there aren't as many volunteers. You spend so much time with the dogs that saying goodbye to them is the hardest part!

I did leave early, but I do love and miss the dogs very much 🤍This was caused by a few different things. One was that Helen was kind to me but I also thought her phrasing was harsh. Helen asked me why I was wary of the larger dogs, and I answered that I had been attacked by a dog when I was nine years old. I explained, to which she responded bluntly that she had also been bitten in the past. I understood, but these were two different scenarios—I was attacked on the street, and Helen manages a dog shelter. I felt uncomfortable after this, However Carmel, another volunteer was lovely.

Working at the shelter was truly an amazing experience, the other volunteers were lovely, as was working with the dogs! Helen truly gives 110% in caring for y them. The hours were as agreed and I had a fun time :) definitely would recommend! Be aware of an early start though lol

This has been one of the best experiences ever, I stayed for 2 months and I cannot believe that how sad I was to leave. I already miss all the dogs. Helen is a great woman, she provides for the dogs and cares about the well-being of the volunteers. The first days can be overwhelming and confusing, but once you are used to the routine everything will be easier, so don't hesitate into asking Helen or any other volunteers about the routine. I also would like to thank to the amazing volunteers that I had the opportunity to share this experience with, Guillaume, Charlotte, Carmel, Iliana and Rhuan
