My time at BronxFamilia was an incredibly amazing experience. It was a very interesting experience from which I learned a lot. Nikos and Caro are two unbelievably kind people, and you can really feel how much they care about the dogs! However, one must be aware that the living conditions are different from what one might be used to at home. But if you embrace it and adapt to the new circumstances, it is a wonderful place! I had such a great time—thank you so much, Nikos and Caro!

This was my first volunteer experience with worldpackers. I absolutely loved the time here!! Nikos and Caro are one of the nicest people I've ever meet ! They take so much care of us volunteers and always listen to us! You can always talk to them if you have any kind of problems and they take care. The accommodation is nice ! But you have to be aware of it that it's built very simple and some dogs live with you in the accommodation, maybe that's not for everyone. But I personally loved it! I definitely want to come again 🥰❤️ The work was amazing, the dogs give you lots of love

Great experience! For my first trip (with Worldpackers), I loved it so much. I recommend to everyone, this will teach you a lot about yourself and if you love animals, go for it ! I'm thinking of coming back for a few weeks, if I can! Thank you so much for all to Nicos and Caro 🤙🏼

I was assured that their standards are usually higher. Be that as it may, I don't expect things to improve very quickly, so I feel that I have to be truthful to any potential new volunteer. Here's a non-exhaustive list of problems: no hot water, no electricity in my dorm, rats the first few nights, longer work hours than indicated, irregular or forgotten meals (only one lunch!), no heating, no cooking gaz, homeless person imposed on us for two nights, food kept outside in a plastic box... In my 10 days there, nothing has been fixed, not a single effort made by Nikos. You've been warned.

Well it has certainly been an experience! Being completely honest I have had an amazing time though at points it was tricky. Time management isn't the best here and communication between volunteers and Nikos isn't always easy due to language barrier. However Caro has been absolutely amazing at answering any of my questions throughout my whole experience here. Her replies are fast and is always super helpful. The living conditions aren't great but they are sustainable and within a couple of days you settle in. But overall I have met some amazing people and have had a wonderful time.

My time at the the shelter dog the shelter was a mix of feelings. On one hand I had a really good time with the dogs and I felt all the love that Nikos puts on the the shelter. He's really nice and caring. On the other hand the hours that I was volunteering weren't being respected at all and there's no Wi-Fi. Which are both okay if the person responsible for the social media didn't put on the worldpackers app that we only work for about 4 hours a day and that we have Wi-Fi. I'm not blaming Nikos, I just want to make everyone aware of what they are applying for. Thank you for everything Nikos!

I had a great time at the the shelter, the dogs (and other animals) make the experience so worth while and special. The living conditions challenging, prepare to be living basically off grid and simple (no fridge, not all houses have toilet or shower etc). It is very clear that Nikos and the team are passionate about their animals and they put everything they can into looking after them. If you love dogs and want a meaningful volunteer experience I would recommend.

Esta fue mi primera experiencia como voluntario y cumplió mis expectativas por completo en cuanto a experiencia de ayuda a animales, conexión con la gente tanto voluntarios de todas partes del mundo como con la gente que vive en Creta y los más importante con los perritos del refugio. Siento que con el tiempo podrían mejorar los servicios a disposición de los voluntarios (aun que desde el principio se informa de las instalaciones y servicios disponibles y son transparentes en cada cosa). Una experiencia inolvidable que me abre el camino a más voluntariados a futuro ❤️

It was a true adventure that I will never forget! The whole experience taught me a lot and yes, it wasn't easy but really unforgettable! Time with dogs was so precious and I fell in love with all of them. Niko and Caro are amazing people and I admire their strength and love to animals😍 If you love animals and want to really help them go for it but remember it is not comfortable accommodation and the food because of the lack of fridge is limited. Overall, I recommend! And I wish to come back🩷
