Experiência incrível! Nelly e Franco são pessoas adoráveis. O trabalho é tranquilo e o amor que você recebe dos cães vale por tudo. Recomendo mais pessoas viverem essa experiência. A ONG precisa de mais voluntários para ajudar no cuidado diário com os cães. O trabalho que você terá será limpar, repor a comida, levar para passear, brincar, dar e receber muito amor. ♥️

The dog shelter is great. I have fell in love with all of the dogs there!!! You really grow close to them quickly! The hosts franco and nelly are sooo nice, eventhought it would definitly help you to know at least some italian, but at the same time, I also didnt know any word and it worked out. The work is sometimes hard but rewarding! The nature around is beautiful. I will never forget this experience and thank you for everything Nelly and Franco!

Volunteering at the organization was the best thing I've ever done. The hosts, Nelly and Franco, are so so welcoming, kind and generous, and will make you feel right at home. And the dogs will just melt your heart of course!! We worked for 5 hours a day, from 7am until 12pm. The work is straightforward, but can be physical at times (lots of walking, stairs, cleaning, scrubbing etc.). Overall, this was an amazingggg experience that I would recommend to everyone! I was sooo sad to leave in the end and I miss it there already! I will absolutely be returning to the shelter!!

This experience is one of a kind. Living in a rural, rustic barn with tons of dogs at every turn. Nelly and Franco adore the animals they care for and provide a warm, homely environment for those that wish to share that care. The work isn't difficult but it is important that it is done correctly as you are responsible for their wellbeing. The work involves: cleaning, administering medication, feeding, walking, brushing, and playing with the dogs. I could not recommend this experience more for those that have a love for animals.

Since it was my first time volunteering I was kind of nervous, but as soon as I arrived I felt at home. It's the perfect place for people who love animals and want to disconnect from the world (since the shelter is in the middle of nowhere). The hosts are really welcoming and you will end up learning a lot from them. It's impossible you go back home without (badly) speaking some Italian :) The work is not difficult but can be a little bit tiring if it's too hot and has to be well executed. It involves cleaning the cages, feeding the dogs and doing the walks.

This experience is perfect for every person that loves dogs 🥰 Every day is full of dog's love but also taking care tasks (medication, cleaning, petting, walking,…) Nelly and Franco are welcoming and open to every person from every country. At some point we felt like theyr're almost our parents ☺️ At first can be a shock for some people the fact that the shelter is in the middle of nothing, but in the end its the perfect time and place for you to take a break The work is simple but made to be done with the attention since the dogs are totally dependent on what we do Overall is so rewarding 🧡

Our experience at the dog shelter was unforgettable. I wouldn't dream of giving anything less than a 5 star review because the hosts are so caring and commited to their cause and because the animals are so sweet. We made many friends of both two and four legged variety and couldn't recommend the experience more. It's important to be somewhat in shape for this job as there are a lot of stairs and walking involved. It also helps to be a nature lover and comfortable with rustic living. The volunteer cabin can be dark and humid in the summer and inhabited by various bugs.
