Life-Changing Experience Caring for Rescue Dogs
April 30, 2026by: Sandra Chepkorir - KenyaVolunteering with Dogs Trust was an incredibly rewarding experience. From the moment I arrived, the team was welcoming, supportive, and clearly passionate about animal welfare. I had the opportunity to help care for rescue dogs, including feeding, cleaning, walking, and giving them much needed attention and affection. What stood out most was seeing the transformation in the dogs from scared and withdrawn to happy and trusting. It was both emotional and fulfilling to know I played a small role in their journey to finding a loving home. The program was well organized, and I also learned valuable skills in teamwork, responsibility, and compassion. Beyond the work, I gained cultural exposure and met amazing people from different backgrounds who shared the same love for animals. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is passionate about dogs and wants to make a meaningful impact while gaining unforgettable memories
