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 is my second time at the shelter and I have always felt very welcome and at home. This time I learned about logistics and painting and it was a different and fun experience. Grazie mille I will always carry in my heart. ♥️♥️

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!

A perfect place if you love nature, dogs and socializing with international people! The hosts, Marco and Elisa, were super nice, really took care of the volunteers and wants the best experience for everyone. The workinghours were respected and left much room to explore the closeby area, smaller towns as well as bigger cities such as Genova. The working tasks were fun and I learnt a lot about dogcare and property maintenance. Marco and Elisa made sure to explain everything thoroughly and that I was comfortable with the tasks. I can really recommend volunteering here!😊

The stay at Cooper313 was my first volunteer experience and i could not have been more perfect! Elisa and Marco are very lovely people, explain the tasks paitentely and help you with everything you need. You can tell they put their hearts into this and welcome you with open arms. Staying with the dogs and learning about dog behaviour, practicing some italian and exchanging with other volunteers really helped me a lot to develop my skills. Even in my freetime (which was a lot) i could visit nearby towns, relax at the beach or go on hiking trips. I definitely had the best time here!

It was a really nice experience! The group of volunteers was really nice and the hosts, Elisa and Marco, were wonderful people too. The schedule was always respected and they were patient to explain the tasks. There was moments to have some drinks together, what was really cool to connect =) About the work: most of the days I stayed with the dogs, and I really loved it =)
