It was a great experience, but not for everyone. You've to be a true dog lover. Don't expect luxury or a place with great amenities to stay, it's basic but has what you need. Be prepared to get dirty, to listen to occasional doggy orchestra, but it'll be super worth it for the love you receive from them. My advice is to enjoy these amazing souls as much as you can and be open to meet other volunteers, they can make u feel at home. And Helen is the most animal-loving persn I've ever met. She's so committed to her animals that she would do anythng for them. She has been very thoughtful with us

The time I spent at the shelter was transformed into affection for the dogs Helen lavishes with her attention. I'm glad I offered my work and dedication.

My partner and I spent 2 weeks at HHH and loved it so much, we decided to come back. If you love dogs and connecting with them on a deeper level, then an experience like this is perfect. You need to be committed to the dogs and your jobs at hand, but it comes naturally and is so rewarding. I think it's important to only commit to something like this if you truly love dogs. Let them sleep with you, spend time with them outside of designated work hours, and you will all benefit more. The dogs are so gorgeous and very hard to leave. We had no plans of adopting a dog, but plans changed!!

I had such an incredible time at the shelter! I stayed for two weeks and wish I could have stayed for longer! Helen is absolutely lovely and I got very close to the other volunteers. I think it's important to note that when there are less volunteers there you will be expected to do more work than is specified and days off are not guaranteed. Additionally you have to be comfortable sleeping/living with dogs which you are responsible for outside of shifts (but they are lovely- I miss Ash everyday <3!). Overall though this was such a rewarding and enjoyable first workaway and I highly recommend!

My time in Helen the shelter was incredible, the job that is done on the sanctuary is amazing and was such a honor to make part of it. The only bad part of it is that I already miss the routine and all of the dogs. Helen is such an awesome person, she does everything that she cans for the dogs, I would definitely come back some day

I had an incredible time at the shelter! Everything from the location, dogs and other volunteers was wonderful. All of the dogs are obviously well loved and taken care of, and it was a great experience to be able to contribute to the shelter. The location is quite isolated in the countryside, but with the company of the dogs and other volunteers you really don't notice it. The only downside was having to leave the dogs at the end.

Helen was a lovely host, I had a good time staying with other volunteers. The tasks were clear and we also had enough time to rest. If you love dogs this is the best possible worldpackers opportunity! Sometimes we got muddy, but I had a great time regardless:)

Helen is super friendly, always supporting the dogs and she was always there if I had a question. Everything was as discussed and I always felt really respected and had a really great time! It's a wonderful place for all dog lovers to learn and gain experience. I really enjoyed the quiet environment where you could take a lot of time for the dogs but it was so hard to leave after you get to know all the dogs especially Rusty, Earnie und the puppies! Many thanks to Helen and the other volunteers Carmel and Alex for the wonderful time. I definitively want to come back!

Had a really good time working here. Helen really cares about all the dogs at the sanctuary and is doing great work running it. The other volunteers were also really nice to work and hang around with in the downtime. Would happily return in the future!

This experience is truly how you get to know the ins and outs of a dog's life. There is a set routine for feeding and walks that you will have to learn, it can seem overwhelming but by day 5 you've pretty much got it. You get to live with only volunteers, this is good for socialization and you learn much. Helen is a nice boss, she shows you how things work and lets you to it. The dogs are lovely and nothing to be scared of. Bulgaria is welcoming (at least during fall) it is a beautiful country.
