🐾 Pet Resort Maintenance in Stunning Cottage Country 🌲

Brazil

5

At the shelter I experienced a taste of Canadian life & cuisine. I loved spending time with the dogs/cats. Lisa is generous & provides a comfy stay (a fully equipped apartment, food, & van to explore beautiful Muskoka in the fall). Because the shelter was in a transitional phase our tasks were focused on organizing, cleaning & maintenance, so there were stressful times and challenging work, but that won't be the case for most & Lisa did her best to make us feel valued. I was the shelter for a good team & our accomplishments, so I still recommend it & loved my time in Huntsville & the friends I made.

Thank you so much for your review Thais! I’m really glad you came and that you really enjoyed the animals, the apartment, and exploring Muskoka. I truly appreciated all your hard work during our transition period and the positive energy you brought. You are an amazing lady. I’m happy you left with good memories — please keep in touch, and I hope our paths cross again! My door is always open for you. Best, Lisa

My experience at the shelter was truly wonderful! Lisa is kind and goes out of her way to make sure you have a great stay. The schedule is well organized, the work is not hard. It's a fantastic place to connect with fellow international travelers and to get a real feel for Canadian culture, especially through the charm of the small town setting and Lisa's delicious home cooked dinners. I had such a great time there! I met amazing people and got to enjoy some breathtaking Canadian scenery.

Lisa is so generous! She provides excellent housing (studio apartments w/ one or two beds, a full kitchen, bathroom, and washer/dryer appliances in each studio). She also purchases dry goods and pantry staples for everyone and cooks enough at dinner for everyone to take leftovers. Day to day work will widely vary depending on what her current projects are, so it's important to have a clear understanding of her expectations for the day. You will also interact with many different dogs throughout your stay as helpers clean the kennels. the shelter is truly a dog lover's paradise!
