Two dog houses are already built, but we still need to paint the interiors and exteriors – and that’s where we need your help.

Program Details
💪 What we’re looking for:
• A hardworking couple, ideally with basic DIY/painting experience
• A valid international driver’s license is a big plus
🛵 If you have an international driver’s license, I’ll rent a scooter for you at my expense. You can use it to travel to the project and also privately during your stay.
If you don’t have a driver’s license, I will drive you to the project and pick you up each day – which is possible, but it takes a lot of time from my schedule.
🏠 Accommodation & Living:
You’ll stay with me in Phuket, where I live with several of our rescued dogs. You’ll have your own room and be part of our little pack. It’s simple, cozy, and full of love.
Activities & Shift
Since the project is about 1 hour away from my place in Phuket, we’ve structured the volunteering like this:
• 3 full days per week
• Around 10 hours per day, including travel time
• 2–3 hours are just for transport (round trip)
• The rest of the week is yours to relax, explore, or spend time with our dogs 🐶
