I had an amazing time at the shelter. Sofia and Kent are absolutely wonderful, they really care so much about all the animals and I felt like I was a part of my family during my stay. The work is good and it's very rewarding to take care of the animals and you'll have lots of time to cuddle the animals. I learned so many new things during my stay. If you want to live in nature, look for a simple and slow way of life, love animals and want to enjoy the Algarve on your days off, this is perfect for you. I had a great stay!

I had a great time, never seen people so committed to the animals in their the shelter, knowing them all and give them as much loving care as possible. It's inspiring to spend time with them and, in my case, with the cats and dogs. I love them all, not easy to say goodbye. The camp life is basic, a tent, a small kitchen, fridge, cold shower, and portopotti, but who cares in this amazing nature. I took bathes in the river.. Without your own transportation, the hosts take you to town, where the supermarket and trainstation are. Beautiful environment

I had such a great time at the shelter! You stay in a camp next to the shelter, so if you enjoy camping and living the simple life like me you're gonna love it. You share an outdoor kitchen and a cold outdoor shower, and during the warmer days you can enjoy a dip in the river. There's an option to use a hot shower in the hosts' house as well. The tasks vary and you get to feed the animals, do some cleaning and maintenance. The hosts listen to your preferences and if you like to work hard, they will give you the opportunity to do so. I'll miss the place for sure! 🩵

It can be hard work at times feeding all of the animals, as well as doing maintenance on a variety of things, but it's pretty laid back. I had an incredible time watching and learning about the different farm animals, as well as the dogs and cats. The weather can also be the decider on how easy things will be or not.
