Join a growing community of expats making a difference in Korean animal rescue. No Korean language skills required โ just compassion.
Connect with local rescuers, volunteer your time, or adopt. We bridge the language and cultural gap for you.
As an expat in Korea, you've probably wanted to help local street animals but felt overwhelmed by language barriers, cultural differences, or simply not knowing where to start. We're here to make it easy for international residents to get involved.
Korean rescuers work tirelessly but need help. Your skills โ whether it's fostering, social media, or just weekend dog walks โ are invaluable.
We understand the unique challenges expats face when trying to help animals in Korea.
All communication, documentation, and support in English. We handle Korean translations for you.
We connect you with Korean rescuers and explain local adoption processes, vet procedures, and cultural expectations.
Join WhatsApp groups, find English-speaking vets, and get help from other expats who've been through the process.
We understand Seoul apartment living. Find dogs that fit your lifestyle, building rules, and future plans.
"I've been in Seoul for 3 years and always wanted to help local street dogs, but the language barrier made it impossible. This platform finally lets me contribute meaningfully โ I foster dogs on weekends and help with adoption photos. It feels amazing to be part of the solution."
