Volunteer Experiences with Dogs and Cats. 

All our experiences have been visited by a member of the AEI team. We have made sure they are safe, ethical and will provide you with the best possible experience- while you provide them with the best possible help.

Dog Rescue in Nepal

Help street dogs in Nepal through rescue, treatment and education programs. 

There are thousands of dogs living on the streets in Nepal. These dogs suffer from neglect, starvation, injuries and disease. They also pose a health threat to people - every year, around 200 Nepali people die of rabies and 16,000 are treated for dog bites. You do not need veterinary experience to volunteer. Volunteers help with feeding the dogs, cleaning, grooming, and bathing the dogs at the shelter, exercising and walking the dogs and assisting the team in other activities.

Starting at $1837 Canadian for 1 week.

Dog Rescue in Spain

Help rescue and rehabilitate Spanish Galgos. 

Help save these amazing dogs! In Spain, galgos – Spanish greyhounds - are used for hunting hares in the countryside. Despite being part of Spanish culture for centuries, as “hunting dogs” galgos are not seen as companion animals and often have difficult lives filled with neglect and abuse. Their speed and agility make them excellent at chasing hares and breeders aspire to create the “perfect” galgos.

Dog Rescue in Kenya

Help rescue and rehabilitate dogs, cats and farm animals in Kenya.

When people think of Kenya, African wildlife come quickly to mind - but Kenya’s domestic animals also need our help. As in many countries, the unfortunate reality is that domestic and farm animals are often abused and abandoned. Volunteers at this centre help with all aspects of care for the animals – which can number as many as 200 at one time. Daily volunteer duties include the cleaning of dog runs, paddocks, enclosures, and the catteries.
