It was an incredible experience from start to finish. Sneha is a wonderful person and a perfect host ! I felt right at home, she was always making sure everything was going well and that I had everything I needed. Not to mention her amazing cooking skills ! Life at the organization was just as incredible, with a great team and adorable animals. I'm going to miss being surrounded by so many animals so much, I really hope I'll have the chance to come back one day !

More than volunteering, this felt like home ⸻ My experience at the organization was truly life-changing. From the moment I arrived, I felt deeply welcomed and supported—especially by Sanju, who was incredibly kind, and always made sure I felt comfortable 💜 This is a place full of love and purpose. The entire team works with genuine dedication, and you can clearly see how much they the organization about every single the organization. I truly admire the organization passion and tireless commitment—she is constantly looking for ways to help animals, not only in the organization but across Nepal

My time at the organization was incredible. spending my day surrounded by 200 dogs and getting to shower them with affection was a great way to spend it. all the team are really kind and welcoming and Sanju was super understanding when I wasn't able to attend days due to medical issues. I hope to return here one day and help out the incredible work these guys are doing.

Nadia was an amazing volunteer at Sneha’s Care. We are so grateful for the valuable time she spent with our animals.

During her stay, we truly felt like she was part of our family. Her love, kindness, and genuine care for the animals made a big difference, and her support throughout her time with us was truly appreciated.

Thank you so much, Nadia, for being with us. You will always be a part of the Sneha’s Care family 💛

This is a great experience— I enjoyed my time here— I even got sick and they were so very worried about me and I appreciated it a lot — I enjoyed the people and the work greatly and thought it was quite fun— I got to work with the vets which for a pre vet student was lovely.

I volunteered at the organization, and it was such a special experience—it truly felt like being part of a little family. My days were spent feeding, cleaning, grooming, walking, and even dressing the dogs' wounds. Mid-days could be a bit slow, but the dogs were always up for cuddles or a walk. The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly, and once the head office left, I basically had the whole place to myself. They took such good the organization of me, making sure I had everything I needed. Overall, I loved every second of it!
