Help with animal care at a dog shelter and make a difference in Anarita, Cyprus

Details

• 

  Description

  This is an animal sanctuary dedicated to rescuing and caring for abused, abandoned, and sick animals. We provide a safe, loving home for neglected or injured stray dogs, ensuring they receive the care and compassion they deserve.
  
  Unlike traditional shelters, we do not confine dogs to cages. Instead, they live together in packs, separated only by size. This approach minimizes stress for the dogs, allowing them to socialize and thrive in a more natural and comforting environment.
  
  We focus on comprehensive care, including neutering, microchipping, and medical check-ups in collaboration with local vets.
  
  We are committed to finding forever homes for our dogs through fostering and rehoming in Cyprus and abroad. Our mission is supported by a dedicated team of volunteers and sustained through fundraising events and community contributions, ensuring these animals receive the good life they deserve.

  Accommodation

  Currently, we offer a very simple trailer with a bed and shelves for volunteers. It’s basic but cozy, providing a comfortable space to rest after a day of helping at the sanctuary.
  
  A car is available for use, but a valid driver’s license is essential, as the shelter is in the mountains. The nearest city is just a 10-minute drive away.
  
  Currently, our volunteer team is working on upgrading the accommodation to a fully equipped caravan with more amenities to enhance your stay!
