I went to Tenerife for three weeks and stayed with Myrna, which was truly the best Worldpackers experience! I enjoyed spending time with all the wonderful dogs she has, and the work was very simple, taking only around two hours a day. Myrna and Paco welcomed me as though I were part of their family, and I really felt at home in their house. Myrna is a lovely, smart woman with her heart in the right place! Everything was perfect, and I would love to come back in the future! THANK YOU, Myrna, for everything! :)❤️❤️❤️❤️

If you want to be inspired by the courageous Myrna and seek impact in small ways, this is the place for you. Myrna is an incredible woman who does anything and everything, the real question is what doesn't she do? My time here was spent taking off some responsibilities of their shoulders such as feeding the beautiful beings of their home, and generally cleaning and assisting in the farm. If you love animals, aren't afraid to get dirty, this is the place to go. Both Myrna and Paco were very welcoming, I also felt very safe in their home. Thank you both for welcoming me and for what you do! <3

Hi Eliana, thanks for everything, these weeks were teamwork, and even you had a few moments little health problems, you were also laughing and helping. The animals escaped to your room, while they were feeling great with you.. Gracias y hasta siemore

Oh woow what can i say??? It was such an amazing experience, from the moment they picked me up at the airport i felt like home. Myrna and Paco are such kind and amazing people! The work was simple and you have a lot of free time, working and living with the dogs we're fantastic but remember, you will 100% want to adopt at least one 😆 do it if you can! Tho its a little bit hard to get around from there, Myrna and Paco are very open to show you places and help you to get around and explore! I miss them and the dogs already, cant wait to go back! Thank you for everything 🫶🏼🐾

I stayed with my friend at Anne's shelter for two weeks. We were working 4 hours a day (from 8:30-12:30), we were cleaning the property and the work wasnt easy but it was only 4 hours so not that long. After that Anne took us to the beach few times and it was really nice. The animals were also very cute:)) The thing we didnt really like were the conditions in which we lived but you have to be prepared for that when you go to help in an animal shelter as its normal that the space gets dirty really fast. But overall it was an amazing experience and I really liked the whole trip:)

Hi Maria, it was amazing having you and your friend with you. We agree that we so many animals it is imposible having the place 24 hours clean. Thanks again

It was my first trip with worldpackers and it was really perfect. The work is not hard and its only 4 hours per day so i had the rest of the day for exploring the island. The only thing that i would change were living conditions but as its dog shelter it is obvious that place is not to luxury. Overall it was really great experience and i will miss all of the dogs🐶

Horrible. There are two shelters: Myrna's is said to be very good, but I was at Anne's. The contact with the animals was good but there is seriously something wrong with this place.

Sorry to hear that from you. Well, as you were expert in horses we were happy you could help us with them. When there are problems, we are pleased to know about it, the problem is that a shelter with soo much abandoned animals without economical help is not a luxury place, and we are happy to receive help, but we can not know how people are. So, thanks again for your help and we hope that you feel better in other places. You never told what has to be changed in your opinion.

I volunteered at the shelter with Anne for one month and it was really an experience of a lifetime, something I will remember forever! The animals, dogs, cats, horses, will forever stay with me🥰 The work is 4 hours per day 8:30-12:30, mostly cleaning poop and feeding the animals. As we live with the dogs, it is clear that the place isn't very clean always. Also without a car from there it's quite difficult to explore the island because the buses are rare and usually late. If you love animals and want to make a change in their lives and give them love this place is for you, do it😊

This was my first experience with Worldpackers and I must say that it was exactly what I needed ( the perfect mix between physical work and personal time to explore and enjoy this beautiful island).I didn't work at Myrna's finca but at Anne's who really needs a looot of help as well. If you are an animal lover I think it's impossible to not enjoy this place (they really have all kinds of animals) but you have to keep in mind that sweating it's on the list:). Every single dog will always have a special place in my heart…

Staying with Myrna and Paco was a great experience that i hope to do again. It was an extremely rewarding time in which i got to help take care to loving and friendly animals and learn about the island. Of course this is volunteer WORK so obviously expect and be prepared to work hard to upkeep the animals but you have free time during the day around jobs to explore or spend quality time with animals. Myrna and Paco are lovely hosts and made me feel right at home, both extremely kind and bubbly people :)

It was a 360 grades experience, where you can touch the life in a life of different view. I had time to work and then to do what I prefer, I really like it. I was very helped by the host, she is very helpful and she gives a lot of information for immerse in the local culture. Thank you sooo much!
