    Hi Animal-Lovers

    You always wanted to visit the unique Galapagos Islands and at the same time do something good?
    You love all animals and you love that taking care of animals is called work?
    Then you are at the right place with us here.
    Be part and help us from the very beginning to build bit by bit our private rescue animal sanctuary

    My Husband and I are a young couple WITH OUR 5 year OLD DAUGHTER living on the beautiful Galapagos Island Santa Cruz where we have a little farm and we made it our mission to rescue domestic animals like dogs cats pigs and other animals here on Galapagos.
    We rescued miss treated, starved, forgotten and unwanted animals and give them a place where they get a lot of love and time to recover from whatever they went through. We take all of them to the vet to help them with whatever they need, and also sterilize and vaccinate them before they ever go in adoption. Because after they are completely recovered we try to find the perfect forever homes. Many of the dogs stay for ever.
    All this and much more is a a lot of work for us two and thats why we need you!!!
    You can help us from the very beginning change the future for many furfriends here on GPS.

    My Husband (33) is a local galapagueño from Galapagos, I (36) was born in Switzerland and we live at our little farm in the highlands of Santa Cruz Island 20 minutes by bicycle from the big town Puerto Ayora (10min by car). My Husbands speaks spanish and english and i speak spanish english and german. We have about 7000 m2 with a lot of Bananapalms and other fruits growing and a bunch of animals running in between all that.

    At the moment we count - 52 Dogs, 4 Cats and 1 Pigs and 1 Donkey- sharing our space.

    Our dream is to help animals in need. Unfortunately there is nothing like a shelter for dogs so far here and thats we are only a 100% private sanctuary but we want to make a change.
    In the future we dream about having a nice shelter structure with all what is necessary like kennels pool vetstation etc. but step by step
    We want our project to be also good for the environment and thats why we try to use as much as we can recycled (bottles, tires, wooden palletts) or natural materials (bamboo, porotiio, wood) to build. Creative technical minds are always very welcome here!

    Works for Volunteers for the animals now at the beginning can be

    - cooking for the animals and feeding them (morning and evening)
    - clean after animals and clean their space
    - build dog houses
    - re force fence that dogs can't escape
    - build cat tree
    - brush animals
    - brush and wash the dogs
    - fruit picking (depending season)
    - gardening
    - build an outside kitchen
    - Cuddle with the animals and spend time with them
    - WE NEED ALSO SOCIAL MEDIA SUPPORT AND FUNDRAISING HELP VERY URGENTLY


    If all this sounds interesting to you and you would like to help us please send me a Mail.

    We offer a little rustic wooden bungalow to share till 4 Volunteers with 2 bunkbeds
    Shared separate kitchen for volunteers
    a shared bathroom with hot shower, and an outside bathroom with openair shower
    1 bicycle available for volunteers ($50 DOLAR deposit per bike).

    Obviously whenever we have

    Apart of your help you have many things to explore like beautiful beaches, las grietas, the giant tortoises in the highlands and unbelievable many things more.

    IMPORTANT NOTE:

    THE DOGS RUN FREE AROUND IN OUR PROPERTY. IF YOU DONT LIKE DOGS JUMPING ON YOU OR BEING AROUND YOU ALL DAY ITS NOT A GOOD PLACE FOR YOU!!!

    Also important ist that we can not guarantee other volunteers to be at the same time with you so if you are a single traveler than it could happen that you end up beeing the only volunteer.
