Over het programma

With impressive environmental policies, unparalleled biodiversity, a rapidly developing economy and “pura vida” culture, there is no better place in the world to join an volunteering abroad. The insight provided during an entry-level Animal & Veterinary Care volunteering program is aimed to help determine whether a career working with animals is right for you. Volunteers assist with animal care at a veterinarian clinic and, according to any level of current veterinarian training, may additionally shadow and work alongside local veterinarians.

Typical tasks may include feeding and cleaning assistance, as well as providing medication, grooming, and tasks related to customer service within the clinic, front desk - arrange appointments, customer service, care of stationary animals. Volunteers are very important to help with the stationary housed animals. They do need a lot of attention and personal care.

An understanding of basic Spanish is required for this Costa Rica volunteering. All volunteers who are not yet intermediate Spanish speakers are strongly encouraged to take Spanish language lessons in addition to their volunteering program. Please contact us if you need more informtion about Spanish lessons. We are happy to assist you.

The minimum duration requirement for Animal & Veterinary Care volunteering placements is a commitment of at least 4 weeks.

Close to the beach people sell souvenirs, other cities like Manuel Antonio or Domical are close. Also you can do tours to waterfalls, which are close to your accomodation. One is in town, the other one close to Domicial. We would  reccommend you to do the tour on your own, as it is easy to get there.
