Volunteer with Rescue Dogs in the Heart of Peru

I had an amazing time at Colitas Sin Techo. Felicia does an incredible job caring for so many dogs (and cats), ensuring that they get the care they deserve and so much more. I'm amazed at how much energy she has for it all! The dogs and cats themselves are adorable, super friendly and simply need a lot of love (so expect a lot of cuddles and play time). The days are nice and short so you still have so much time to enjoy the afternoon and can ask for your days off whenever. As a vegetarian, I also thoroughly enjoyed the food that was made (I always felt well taken care of).

Working with Felicia was one of the best experiences of my life! Working with the dogs is less like working and more like playing and it was so hard to leave at the end of the three weeks. Felicia is the kindest person ever and truly cares about your experience and well being. The apartment space is very nice and the food is delicious. I seriously cannot say enough good things about this volunteer experience.

Felicia is unlikely any other people we have met on our journey around Latin America. Every day she pours her heart into the life of dogs and other animals around her. At the same time, she takes very good care of the volunteers. Through her, we feel very connected with the life outside of typical tourism. The world of dogs is harsh and we are so happy to have contributed to some degree here. We deeply recommend this experience to everyone who wants to support the life of animals (especially dogs), learn Spanish (yes, no English is spoken ;) and connect with real authentic Peruvian life

I had an amazing time here!! Felcia is a wonderful host!! She is so caring and kind and it's clear that she loves her work and deeply cares about each and every dog she takes care off !! I don't speak any spanish but it was very easy for us to communicate using google translate and she was very patient!! The apartment is very nice and depending on the number of volunteers you get your own room. The food is delicious and she's very accommodating to allergies or food preferences. I loved my time here and if your looking for a wonderful experience in peru this is the worldpackers trip i would do

This two weeks experience in “Colitas sin techo Cusco” was truly amazing. The work didn't feel like working at all. It was more like enjoying the day with the dogs and helping at the shelter for a couple of hours. Felicia is really and amazing person, always smiling and ready to help any dog or person. She is really dedicated to all the animals that she takes care of. The accommodation is also super good, whether it's the meals (breakfast and lunch) or the spacious rooms with private bathrooms. I can not recommend this place enough. This experience was amazing and I would love to come back.

We had a great time at Felicia. We loved looking after the dogs and cats. Everything was perfect, we had our own room and bathroom, we ate well too. Everything was very clean, tidy and organised. We had time to go to Machu Picchu on our days off. We will be back with great pleasure. ❤️ We recommend it 100%! Go for it!

No one on the planet works harder than Felicia. She is a dynamo. The shelter had better facilities than I had expected, though there are many improvements for the future planned. The dogs are healthy, well fed and clean. It's hard work, but Felicia shows you what she needs, even if your Spanish is as poor as mine. She is kind, to animals and volunteers. I don't known how she does it with so little money and support. COME HERE AND HELP. You will be glad that you did. I had some trouble with the altitude, but work slow and rest when you need to.

This was my first Worldpackers experience, and I'm very glad it was! Feli is an incredible person with the biggest heart, and it's beautiful to see how passionate she is about her work. The dogs are all so sweet, and it was so much fun getting to know each of them and their unique personalities. The volunteer accommodation is great and the food is super tasty too. It's also a great opportunity to practice Spanish in a natural, everyday setting. I already miss all the doggies!

Gracias por tu sugerencia Camí. Lo tomaré en cuenta. Estos meses hace mucho frío en Cusco.

Feli is the most amazing person and makes such an impact in her community. The work is just a couple of hours of help at the shelter which is very manageable and leaves the afternoons free to explore or relax! It is a great experience to practice Spanish since she doesn't know much english. I cannot say enough great things about Felicia, the shelter, or this experience! Que buena experiencia <3
