It was my first time volunteering, and I couldn't have chosen a better place than ARA. Everyone I met was incredibly kind, and the animals were absolutely lovely. I'm already looking forward to coming back soon! <3

Amelie spent three weeks volunteering with us, and it was a real pleasure to have her here again. From day one, she showed kindness, dedication, and a natural connection with the animals—especially the dogs. Even during her free time, she chose to be with them, giving them love, attention, and care that went far beyond what was expected. Amelie was also responsible and easygoing. She blended in effortlessly, contributed positively to our space, and brought a lot of heart to everything she did!

Working with ARA was a fantastic experience! I loved meeting all the volunteers and dogs and cats. The volunteer accommodation was lovely and uber eats is available to get groceries upon arrival. There was a lot of shoveling poop involved but caring for and training the animals felt very meaningful and it was a pleasure to see some dogs get adopted during my stay. The staff are super kind and welcoming and flexible.

She adapted quickly to our routines, communicated clearly, and worked well with the rest of the volunteer team. Grace was respectful, kind, and brought a positive energy to the space. We truly appreciated having her with us and would gladly welcome her back anytime. She's a great volunteer
