Even though there were no other volunteers while I was there, I had a great time, most of the time I spent with the best dogs Echo and Drax or just recharging in the garden, reading books. Walking with dogs perfectly prepared me for hike to Acatenango and Fuego!

My stay at the Center was a great experience. The work contained mostly walking with the dogs and entertaining them, which i really enjoyed. We also help with different task around the property. The free time was perfect to relax around the property, do some yoga or explore Antigua and the region around like volcano Acatenango (the walks with the dogs will prepare you perfectly for a volcano hike). Sterling was a great host. He always ensured our well being and made me feel really comfortable and welcomed. I'm really grateful for this wonderful experience at the Center. Thank you so much.

Volunteering at the Center was a great experience. Sterling is a super nice guy. He made me feel very welcome at his place. Even when I got sick he took great care of me. The work we had to do was extremely manageable and never boring. As a bonus we got to cuddle with his super sweet dogs. The daily walks with the dogs kept me fit and prepared me excellent for the hike to volcano Acatenango. Sterling also took us to Antigua whenever we needed to go. The property is also great to just relax and calm down in the hammock he set up for us.Overall it was a great experience and I had a lot of fun

This was honestly one of the best Worldpackers I've been to. Sterling and Dani were incredibly welcoming. The property itself is beautiful.
