Voluntario en Bienestar Animal

This was my first experience with Worldpackers and I must say that it was exactly what I needed ( the perfect mix between physical work and personal time to explore and enjoy this beautiful island).I didn't work at Myrna's finca but at Anne's who really needs a looot of help as well. If you are an animal lover I think it's impossible to not enjoy this place (they really have all kinds of animals) but you have to keep in mind that sweating it's on the list:). Every single dog will always have a special place in my heart…

Staying with Myrna and Paco was a great experience that i hope to do again. It was an extremely rewarding time in which i got to help take care to loving and friendly animals and learn about the island. Of course this is volunteer WORK so obviously expect and be prepared to work hard to upkeep the animals but you have free time during the day around jobs to explore or spend quality time with animals. Myrna and Paco are lovely hosts and made me feel right at home, both extremely kind and bubbly people :)

It was a 360 grades experience, where you can touch the life in a life of different view. I had time to work and then to do what I prefer, I really like it. I was very helped by the host, she is very helpful and she gives a lot of information for immerse in the local culture. Thank you sooo much!

Ich had I really nice time. I felt welcomed from the beginning. You have a car and can explore the rest of the island easily. There is plenty of time to do that. I took care of the cats and I just needed to do the feeding and cleaning in the morning and to feed them in the evening again. The rest of the day was free. The finca is pretty far from everything, but that's also kinda nice. The view over the island is beautiful. So I would definitely recommend it!

I had a very nice time at the shelter! I had a regular work routine of helping a few hours in the morning and a few in the evening, I mainly cleaned the dog and cat areas, fed them, changed the water and gave eye drops to the new kittens. I got to spend a lot of alone time which was relaxing. It's pretty far from anything but luckily they have a car you can use and you can take a bus to Los Roques and enjoy the beautiful beach in the afternoon! Myrna was very kind and is a very inspiring person who does so much for her community. I learned so much about working at an animal shelter.

I really enjoyed my stay at the casa of Myrna and Paco! They are such warm-hearted &open people so that I always felt welcomed. Even though Myrna is super busy she takes a lot of time for the volunteers and if you don't understand something she is always open to help you. She also offers you to show you the island (going to the beach or Teide). My tasks were basically taking care of the animals (cleaning and feeding) and of course- most importantly- give the animals lots of love. You'll have a lot of freetime which I mostly spend with relaxing in the sun and cuddling w the dogs. 10/10!!!

I loved the experience! For those who love animals, it is undoubtedly an enriching experience and one that teaches them for life. Ann, responsible for the shelter, is always available to help and is super sweet and friendly. The only thing I think could be improved is the place where the volunteers sleep. The caravan is not incredible, but I 100% understand that the focus is on providing better conditions for the animals and they are excellent at that. Thanks for the opportunity! I loved!

My stay with Myrna and Paco was amazing, the job was easy and pleasing as your taking care of the dogs and playing/petting them. There's a lot of them, they even have cats, birds, a turtle and puppies. Beside the job and the animal, the island is beautiful and you'll have plenty of time to discover. Myrna and Paco will give you adresses and dishes to tru, they are really lovely and I enjoyed my stay with them, I would 100% recommand them

Myrna and Paco are amazing! I only stayed one week, but I wish I could have stayed longer! I learned so much while I was here; I got to practice Spanish, learn about what it takes to efficiently run a property with a large number of animals, help administer medications to the animals, and I even got to help rescue a sick kitten from the streets and help prepare it for adoption. When working with animals, a lot of cleaning is involved. But if you care about the animals, it motivates you to keep the place clean! Thank you so much for everything, I will think about my time here for a long time!

I stayed for a few days at Anne Finca. She is doing an important work to save the lives of many dogs and other animals such as cats or horses that have been abandoned or mistreated. She is nice and there are 80 dogs in the finca and the main task is to keep the spaces clean and comfortable for the animals. The problem for me was that dogs were everywhere, even in the bathroom and some of them are aggressive. You cannot leave the property after 10pm and dogs will bark at you every time that you enter the property. I didn't feel free and the noise and dirt were a little bit excessive for me.

Hi, sorry for the bathroom problem, but sometimes the people don t close after leaving, and of course the place is cool and confortable, the animals like to be there. Thanks for the help you gave us.
