At Simabo's vet clinic we always appreciate help from professional nurses!
Simabo was the first free veterinarian clinic in Cabo Verde. We offer help to the local people who want their dogs and cats to be spayed/neutered, dewormed and treated.
Skills for non vets
What to expect?
Tasks for non-vet volunteers helping at the clinic include:
We are extremely grateful to all non vet volunteers who will help at the clinic, as their contribution can make a great difference to the animals, to the people waiting with their animals and also to our staff and voluntary vets.
The clinic is open to the public from 9AM to 1PM and then again from 4PM to 7PM.
- we'll make our best to give you the morning shift on the last working day of one week and the afternoon shift of the first working day of the following week, so that you have 2 days and 2 nights off and you can visit another island if you like.
The island is famous for its music and its partying vibe! So night activity is guaranteed!
The weekly fee covers
Our driver will wait for you in the airport arrival hall with a sign with your name! Driving time to town is about 10 min.
Accommodation for volunteers is available in single rooms with shared bathroom in our volunteer house or in double or triple rooms with shared bathroom in the hostel. Both are located just a couple of meters away from our clinic, the beach, and the main square of Mindelo. Extra fee is charged for a single room in the hostel.
Volunteers can prepare their own food in the hostel kitchen, where paying guests are hosted to raise funds for the project.
At the hostel volunteers can meet any kind of travellers and together they can plan trips, excursions, parties, dinners, anything that makes fun and makes your volunteering time unforgettable.
We accept voluntary nurses all year round according to availability. Usually we accept one nurse at a time.
Veterinary nurse
A nurse can help at our clinic by taking care of ill animals, administering therapies, monitoring the operated animals. And she can also carry out deworming campaigns.
