Animal Rescue Algarve

We are a NGO formed to help abandoned and mistreated animals in the Algarve, South of Portugal.
Our kennels are beautiful little wooden houses, fully insulated, where we pair 2 dogs maximum in each kennel so they have a peaceful place to chill and sleep. All our dogs go for walks and have fun time at our parks every day.

We have a very motivated team that genuinely love animals. This place has proven to be a healing place not only for animals but to a few good human souls too :) Our goal is to give a second chance to those abandoned dogs and cats by finding them new loving families and homes, locally and abroad :-) We also aim to educate and inform the local population about the benefits of sterilising their animals and the raise awareness about animal welfare.

ARA is a special place, that I was able to visit for the third time now. You really get the feeling that your work matters and helps the animals. The team of the staff does great work. A plus is of course, that you get to meet so many new friends - and if it‘s not your first time - meet so many old friends again!

Anna has been an incredible volunteer at our shelter. From the moment she joined, she showed great initiative and was very proactive in helping with every task. She carried out all her responsibilities with care and excellence,and her friendly attitude made her a joy to work with. Her love for animals was clear every day,she went above and beyond, often spending extra time with the cats to make sure they felt cared for and comfortable. Anna is extremely responsible, dependable, and compassionate

I had the opportunity to spend some time at ARA and I am incredibly grateful for this experience. The shelter is run with so much passion and dedication, and you can immediately feel how important the animals’ wellbeing is here.
The staff and volunteers are very friendly, supportive, and always do their best for every single animal. For me personally, it was a truly enriching time – I not only learned a lot about working with animals (to my surprise, there are even dog training sessions with a professional trainer, Hugo, twice a week), but I also met wonderful people! Thx for everything

Tara volunteered at our dogs and cats shelter for two weeks, with much of her time dedicated to caring for the kittens. She was attentive to their needs, patient in handling them, and quick to notice any changes in their behavior or health. Alongside her work with the kittens, she supported the team in other daily tasks, showing reliability and a positive attitude. Her efforts made a clear difference in the well-being of the youngest animals in our care. We hope to welcome her back!

We are so grateful to have Hidde back volunteering with us for the second time! From the moment he arrived, his positive attitude and warm personality made such a difference. He is always in a good mood, brings great energy to the team, and works exceptionally well. Hidde is reliable, hardworking, and a real pleasure to be around. His kindness and dedication shine through in everything he does, and we feel very lucky to have his support at the shelter.

One of the best experiences of my life! A very welcoming team who cared about the well-being of the volunteers and our accommodation. The working hours are very well adapted to the heat (we work early mornings and evenings). You're immersed in a world of enthusiasts who love what they do and know how to pass on their respect and love for animals.

Ambre joined us as a volunteer for two weeks and quickly became a valued member of the volunteer team. She showed great kindness and dedication, always approaching her tasks with a positive and caring attitude. During her stay in the trailer, she took special care of Temu, our elderly blind cat, giving him not only the attention he needed but also a lot of affection and patience. Ambre’s gentle presence and reliability made a real difference for both the animals and the team.
