MLHR was a life-changing experience for me. I met amazing people who made me feel like at home from the moment I arrived. Working with animals is one of the best things that have happened to me ever, it's magical, they make you forget about everything and you get to love them so much. I will be forever grateful to all the people in charge that dedicate their lifes to animals that have suffered their whole life before being rescued. The work could be exhausting but rewarding and the reward is bigger and more valuable. Marv, Kenny, Penny I miss you so much

One of the best volunteering experiences I've ever had. The tasks involve feeding the animals and cleaning their area, which can be a bit tiring but is incredibly rewarding. The animals are very loving. Claire and everyone on the farm are always helpful and willing to assist us whenever we need it. The rooms are shared and very comfortable. I loved the farm and highly recommend it!

My stay at the farm was simply fantastic: the hosts and managers are very easygoing and always make you feel comfortable. The work is physically tough but rewarding, knowing that you're improving the lives of creatures that would otherwise be in difficulty. Life in the house is a whirlwind of emotions perfect for connecting with people from all over the world. I will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

From the first moment I arrived I've felt so welcomed and comfortable. Everybody was so nice and friendly, always happy to help - honestly I don't think I've ever heard more 'please' and 'thank you's' in my life before:D Even though to some people the work could seem a bit challenging sometimes, it was never anything extremely hard or unbearable and definitely nothing that couldn't be fixed with some cuddles from any the shelter close at that time. My only advice would be: don't be afraid to ask:-) Thank you everyone for making my stay so unforgettable, I couldn't possibly ask for more<3

I had the best time working at MLHR! People were always nice, kind and easy to work with. Have no fears at all! The place you'll be staying is comfy and has everything you need. People are always there to help you with anything and the animals are great. I'm sure you'll love it and will want to go back like I do. Thank you for everything, I'll cherish these memories forever🩷

It was a good experience, I liked a lot of. We had an unforeseen event due to storm Eowyn, and we didn't have electricity and water, but the staff was impeccable in trying to resolve the conditions Of the volunteers and the animals. I'm very grateful for this experience and opportunity ☺️

My Love Horse the shelter is really a contagious place, which makes us wake up in the morning and worry if any little the shelter is not well or sick, if it has already been fed or was warm enough.The entire space team is kind and the volunteers who arrive every day are very nice. I would really go back to this place. The work is not easy, but everyone works together and any doubts are clarified immediately. Thank you all for welcoming me so well in this place. Thank you Claire!

Thanks so much. Jhonatan was amazing! At a time where other volunteers had let us down, the work was hard but he did it with a smile. So hardworking and fun. We would welcome him again any time.

An amazing experience for anyone who loves animals and nature. Marine and Marlene are wonderful hosts, always respectful and caring. The work requires focus, responsibility, and physical effort, since dealing with animals can be unpredictable. Living with people from different cultures can be challenging at first, but it brings great learning. We had plenty of food and a great location, close to Dublin and with easy access to Galway. I recommend it for those who want real connection and are willing to fully commit.

MLHR was my first volunteer experience and it was truly unforgettable. It's a chaotic place in the best way, there's always something to do. I met amazing people, and learned to live and work around animals. The admin can be disorganized, and the house is old with water issues. Though, the animals are truly friendly, and resilient. Many of them have medical conditions or come from difficult backgrounds, so being able to spend time with them feels very meaningful, you end up falling in love with all of them. 💕 If you don't mind getting dirty and heavy work, I recommend this experience. 🤗
