Dettagli del programma

At a dog shelter, help is typically needed with tasks like feeding, carrying the water to and cleaning kennels, walking dogs, grooming, administering medications, socializing dogs, taking pictures and making videos of them so their future families can find them and assisting with adoption events.
At a farm animal shelter tasks may include feeding and giving water to animals, cleaning stalls or pens, providing medical care, assisting with animal rehabilitation and maintaining the overall welfare of the farm animals.
Both shelters also benefit from volunteers who can help with administrative work, fundraising, and promoting adoption or rescue efforts. We have a lot of greenery so help is also needed with maintaining the environment. Mowing the lawn, watering and planting the flowers, etc.

Attività e turni

Caring for our dogs is time-consuming and unpredictable. Daily activities depend on the weather as well as the needs of the dogs, but most days we have a morning shift (from 8 in the morning till 1 pm, with a quick poop-picking round and free time in the afternoon) and an afternoon shift (from 2 till 7 pm). During the hot summer months this changes to working earlier in the morning and later afternoon, with a break in between.
We also ask for help with ad hoc tasks besides the official sometimes. These could include vet visits, picking up new dogs from the street, giving medication or random emergencies.

Regole

Please keep in mind that the work is very physical, and while you will be provided with gloves and the proper tools, cleaning up after dogs involves removing dog poop from their living area, among other things. Please do not contact us if you are not willing or able to work hard and get dirty.
We have high standards and give our all to taking care of our dogs. Should you decide to offer your help we would be happy if you did too.
