Kato stayed with us around three weeks and she has been an amazing part of the team, not even the language barrier has been an obstacle to her efficiency. She is really helpful and enthusiastic, always ready to help, always eager to learn and participate, and she is tireless! Her energy is contagious and you can tell she has experience in

Spending almost three weeks here was an experience that deeply moved me. I originally planned to stay for two weeks, but once I arrived I knew I want to stay longer. Being surrounded by people who dedicate their lives to giving animals the respect, care, and freedom they deserve was incredibly inspiring. Their kindness and determination create a

I didn’t know much Spanish when I arrived, and while the team was always patient and willing to translate, I’d recommend learning some basics to connect more easily. That said, language was never a barrier to feeling welcome. The days were long and filled with hard work but the shared passion and love for the animals made every moment meaningful. Whether helping with daily tasks, spending time with the animals or cooking for the community I felt grateful to be part of it all.
To the animals you are not here for us, but with us and you deserve every bit of the love and care this sanctuary provides. To the incredible people here, your dedication to animal liberation is truly changing lives and I have so much respect for everything you do.
This place is proof that a kinder world is possible. I recommend it to anyone who wants to make a real difference, and I will be back for sure. Thank you for everything!
With love,
Kato

I was fortunate enough to spend two wholesome weeks at the sanctuary. Despite not being able to speak Spanish, I felt welcomed straight away and was always very grateful for everyone's efforts to explain things to me. I definitely recommend covering some language basics before you go, however, even without this, I would still recommend the
… read more experience. I was made to feel a very valued, appreciated member of the team, especially by Martina who helps to coordinate volunteers.
My days consisted of a variety of tasks ranging from: helping to check on the animals in the morning, cooking, cleaning, laundry, unloading/sorting food deliveries for the animals and of course poo picking! Everyone works very hard and the days are long, but the fulfilment I felt from contributing to such a meaningful mission was priceless.
Set in the beautiful backdrop of the mountains, the location is so stunning and peaceful. I highly recommend taking a walk to the little view point, only a 10 minute walk from the sanctuary. One of the highlights of my day was pausing to take a look at the sunset and cuddling up to Mango the cat who would always join me on my top bunk! The strength, determination and resilience of the animals whom I got the honour to meet, filled me with awe.
I feel extremely inspired and humbled by the safe haven for both animals and humans that Elena founded and the dedication, passion and determination of ALL the volunteers that makes it possible. It was such a privilege to join you, even for a moment. Thank you for all that you do, the world needs more people like you!
Christophe was with us as a resident for nearly 6 months. He was responsible for the daily care of some of our most vulnerable animals (animals with diseases or mobility problems), and helped with their special needs as well as their feeding, which are tasks that are not assigned lightly. He participated in the common house chores and also was

I stayed two weeks at first and i decided to stay 6 months. The project is amazing, the people are kind and professional, everything is done in such a good way. I was amazed to meet all those animals and to learn how to take care of them. Even if at the end of the day, I realised that they took care of me more that I would have thought. Thank you

Wow, what an amazing experience! It was really hard to leave because everyone at the sanctuary truly felt like my second family! I stayed 6 weeks, and I’m definitely planning on returning soon :)
Each day we split different tasks and talked about what needed to be done! Because I had a longer stay, I was able to take on more responsibility such

The days are definitely long and lots of work (with ~3 hr siesta), but absolutely worth it of course, so definitely join with the expectation of putting in the effort needed to complete tasks! Communication was very clear, and if I ever had a question about anything I knew I would be able to seek help!
The location is in the mountains with the most beautiful views and sunsets! Really going to miss the community and beautiful sanctuary, until next time :) definitely recommend!
I had an amazing time at the animal sanctuary !The place is truly beautiful and there is a lot of work to do! The sanctuary is located on the top of the mountains, which means there is always a beautiful view.
I enjoyed the daily task of preparing the food for the animals and the feeding ! The wonderful people I met there, instantly made me feel

The place is so beautiful and you have a great view over the mountains! The sanctuary is home for so many different animals and the people there look after them so well. That also means a lot of work. You will be part of a community that lives a completely vegan lifestyle :) And they mainly speak spanish, but everyone is so friendly.. ♡ I stayed

I spent just over a couple of weeks at the sanctuary, and had an amazing time there. If you like animals, it's a rewarding environment to be helping in. On top of that, you'll meet amazing humans, and will instantly be made to feel like you're part a community, where's there's no clear distinction between short-term and long-term
… read more volunteers.
Although you may end up mostly working with the same group of animals, the tasks are varied and you won't get bored.
There is always a lot to do : whether it's taking care of the animals, preparing food, cleaning, working on construction projects [...]. As a result, it's not uncommon to work from sunrise to sunset, though you will obviously have some breaks throughout the day, for breakfast, as well as lunch and siesta.
I wish I could have stayed longer, but already had something else scheduled after that, but will probably come back one day.
And although the main language used there is Spanish (Castillan), you can get around with English too.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

I spent most of September at this beautiful place and I learned so many things about animals, myself and live!
The workdays are long and hard but everyone is giving their best to create a well deserved home for the many animals that live there. Everyone on the farm was really nice and the atmosphere was always open and caring. I also had lots of

My stay there really made me think about the way we treat and look at animals and I took a lot with me.
It felt good using my body a lot and being outside all the time, in the beautiful mountains of Spain.
I can definitely recommend this place, they really need every helping hand they can get!Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

I stayed at the sanctuary for 3 weeks this summer and had a really great time there. All of the residents and other volunteers were very nice and welcoming.

I stayed at here in November for about 3 weeks. I enjoyed my time learning about animal husbandry and hanging out 24/7 with the many different animals around the camp. It was incredible to be immersed in a completely vegan environment, surrounded by people who would do absolutely anything for animals. Everyone was very welcoming, especially

I stayed here for three weeks. It was a very beautiful location and very calming to be in nature everyday. Such a rewarding experience to be working with such different types of animals! The people are all very passionate about animal welfare, you can feel that immediately. The working days are long and sometimes heavy, but you are always keeping

This meant that we didnt really speak english and so for me communication was difficult.

I stayed here for just over 3 weeks last year. The resident volunteers there are super friendly and welcoming, I didn't speak any Spanish at all but this wasn't a problem for them.
