My third time at the shelter ;) Never the same but always beautiful experience of open-minded hosts Elisa and Marco. These people are hard-working, patient and very helpful if you need anything. The job is not hard and the schedule is flexible. Prepare yourself to be out of your comfort zone but experiencing one of the best volunteering. <3

As many volunteers I've been to the shelter many times and it has always been an outstanding experience,I managed to build strong ties with the hosts who are extremely warm, available ,proactive and flexible, and make you feel so much like home. The place is absolutely beautiful with a lot to do in the surroundings and nearby other tourists places in Italy. The work is always fair and you learn a lot of different things. Grazie di cuore Marco&Eli for everything!!

Elisa and Marco are just the best, I felt like home, I'm a 19 years old girl that has never left my home town before so this experience was terrifying for me but all of those fears disappeared when I arrived at the shelter, since day 1 I felt in peace, the other volunteers were so easy going so it was just a matter of time until we became friends and family, I spend the time of my life at the beach, with friends, with the amazing dogs and with the caring and lovely hosts. The work is easy and they are so flexible. You are never going to regret volunteering in the shelter, thank you 💗🫂

This was my second time at Cooper313 and it was once again an amazing experience! I fell deeply in love with the property, the people, the food, the dogs and the peace this place gives me. Marco and Eli work constantly on improving the living conditions, listen to every little problem and figure it out with you. I am so proud and happy to be part of the shelter-family and i will definitely come back in the future. Thanks to everybody who i got to meet during my stay!

My experience at the shelter was fantastic! Marco and Elisa are great people—open, flexible, and charming. They always take care of the well-being of the volunteers, and I felt like part of the family. We also spent time together doing activities outside, which made the experience more special. The schedules are respected, and the tasks are clearly defined. I was able to learn about dog behavior through observation and their explanations. The location offers both sea and mountains, with beautiful trekking opportunities! Grazie di tutto <3

I absolutely loved my time volunteering at Cooper313. Marco and Elisa are just kind and genuine people. They really care about the dogs and the work they do. They put a lot of effort into getting to know the volunteers, even inviting us into their home for meals on multiple occasions. The lodging is basic but fairly comfortable, we even had our own wood-fired stove to sit around at night with a book. They were also very respectful about working hours. We had a set schedule every week and they were very intentional about making sure we didn't work past our set working hours. I highly recommend!
