We are a dog hotel. Dogs stay with us for days while their humans go on vacation. The plan is: volunteer full-time for 3 days and rest for 4. WE DO NOT ACCEPT MEN. During the volunteer days you help with the dogs, cleaning and maintenance. Days off? Enjoy! We require a 20€ deposit that will be returned at the end as long as the material is cared for and the commitment to volunteering is kept. We provide bed linen, but no towel.

Lovely experience! Everyone in the team was super communicative and accommodating. the shelter is quite isolated, but it's definitely not impossible to travel around on your days off. I don't think there's anything the host could do to improve the experience :)

My communication with the host was great, the house is spotless, comfortable, and very well organized. The views and the dogs make it even better. My only thing is the location. Don't underestimate it. The walk to and from the train station is an hour away and is genuinely steep and exhausting. If your main goal is to explore Barcelona on your days off, this isn't the best fit. Although if you're looking for a mountain experience it's absolutely worth it. Just investigate and make sure the location match you're plans

The host is a very welcoming place, does not matter where you come from, you will be welcomed there and treated with respect and understanding. Girls, who work there , love their job and are very commited to all fluffy guests. The tasks aren't difficult, the infrustructure is great, the location gives you a great opportunity for hiking and exploring the mountains while being really close to the sea. The schedule of working allows you to work hard during few days and then rest for few days. I would highly recommend this place if you wanna be around dogs and around young and energetic people.
