This program is ideal for
Veterinary students or individuals passionate about animal welfare and veterinary medicine. Volunteers should have a genuine love for animals and a desire to make a positive impact in a rural and economically challenged area. It is also suitable for those interested in pursuing a career in veterinary medicine, as it offers valuable hands-on experience and the opportunity to work alongside a local veterinarian. Volunteers should be prepared for a busy and rewarding environment, with a focus on providing care for a variety of animals, assisting with procedures and surgeries, and participating in spaying and neutering clinics.

Are you a veterinary student or passionate about animals? Green Life Volunteers is seeking dedicated individuals to join our Veterinary Volunteer Program in Costa Rica. Located in the remote and economically challenged area of Puerto Jimenez on the Osa Peninsula, our project offers a unique opportunity to make a difference in the lives of animals while gaining invaluable experience.
As a volunteer in our program, you'll collaborate with the local town vet, Ricardo. He is enthusiastic about offering you training, granting you the opportunity to aid in diverse procedures and surgeries, and independently care for patients. In addition to improving your abilities, this practical experience will improve the lives of animals that are in need.
Students studying veterinary medicine or those hoping to work in the field would particularly benefit from this project. Your educational and professional objectives can be advanced by using your volunteer work as work experience. The vet clinic serves as the sole facility in this predominantly rural area, making it a hub of activity with a constant stream of animals in need. You'll have the opportunity to work with dogs, cats, and other animals daily, and also assist in spaying and neutering clinics, which occur almost every week, providing affordable services and demanding additional support.
Join us at Green Life Volunteers and be part of a rewarding Veterinary Volunteer Program in Costa Rica. Make a lasting impact on the animal community of Puerto Jimenez while enhancing your skills and knowledge in the field. Apply now and embark on a fulfilling journey with us!
