This was my very first worldpackers experience and it truly couldn’t have been any better! I was there for 6 weeks. Carl is a very lovely host, you can talk to him about anything and he is always just a phone call away to help you with anything!
The house was really nice and clean and i didn’t miss anything.
The dogs are all amazing and so thankful for everything you do for them. I met amazing people there and made friends for a lifetime.
It can be a lot of poo at work sometimes, but it is totally worth the effort!

My experience at Animal Army went above and beyond my expectations. I had such an amazing time at the hospital with the animals, doctors, and other volunteers. I originally planned on being here 4 weeks but I ended up staying longer because I enjoyed it so much. Carl was super amazing to work with, and so helpful with anything we needed. You can tell that Carl, the doctors, and other workers truly care about the work they are doing. They have made, and will continue to make such a positive impact on these animals’ lives. I would highly recommend this volunteer position to anyone considering!

The highlight of my time at Animal Army was being around all the lovely dogs. I miss them all! The Foundation does meaningful work and processes are well established.
Sadly, I chose to leave early due to 2 incidents- a 3-4 foot snake was found at the volunteer house and a dog in the area chased and bit me. Carl was understanding but sadly, I was too anxious to continue my stay.
For future volunteers: there is no hot water in the bathroom. The listing says 20 hrs work/week but it's more like 25-28 hrs. The work is 80% cleaning and I didn't get to do any rescue or vet related work.

I really enjoyed my time there. The team is really kind, the houses and living area with the other travllers is really enjoyable as well. Loved to beings with all these cute dogs, if you love dogs you wil be happy here. The job is fine, we have a lot of free time but the work is essentially to clean which is necessary and important but can be a bit repetitive after a moment. Sometimes you can see surgery, be here, ask questions, which is really cool. So yeah if you love dogs (and you are ok to clean the poop 😝) and you want social interactions you might have a really good experience here ! 😋

My time at Animal Army was a great learning experience and super fun! The hours were very good (good work/rest balance), the people there were all friendly, and of course, the doggies and cats I will really miss :( I’d definitely recommend animal army to anyone who wants to be a part of something that really makes a difference and positive impact! - as well as anyone who loves dogs!!
