Welcome

to Maya

Rescue

Sri Lanka.

We provide a lifeline for stray dogs in Mirissa and its surroundings. We vaccinate the dogs, treat them for various diseases, provide neutering services, and rescue endangered pups.

What we do

Vaccination & Neutering

We vaccinate dogs against rabies, distemper and parvo virus, and, most importantly, we neuter them to break the cycle of suffering for unwanted starving animals.


Scabies treatment

Mostly female dogs sometimes suffer from sexually transmitted venereal cancer. We treat them with 2-4 doses of chemotherapy, depending on the severity of the disease.


Cancer treatment

Countless dogs endure suffering due to the transmission of scabies, often spread through snuggling together. A single dose of NexGard eliminates scabies completely.

Fostering puppies

We rescue endangered pups along with their mothers, providing them with a safe space, food & vaccinations so they can recover. Later, we neuter them and find them forever homes.

About us

We are Jana and Michelle, originally from Prague, Czech Republic, now residing in Mirissa. At Maya Rescue, our mission is to lend a helping hand to dogs in need. We operate independently without any institutional funding.

We synergize with veterinary experts, headed by Univet Animal Clinic Mirissa, and local volunteers, enriching our endeavors with their invaluable contributions.

Maya Rescue is officially endorsed by Nebelvira's Help for Animals, z.s., a renowned Czech NGO and dog shelter celebrated for its successful rescue missions across Eastern Europe.
