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.

An amazing experience, highly recommend to anyone who loves being away from the city and in the mountains. You spend time with amazing people with all sorts of backgrounds and the dogs are for the most part amazing. I do advise that you take the time to understand that you will be with dogs all the time while you are here and are AWAY from the city, if this doesn't suit you then this may not be for you. A humbling and loving environment, you will not regret your stay here, also make sure you speak Spanish and in return you'll also learn a bit of Catalán :)

Well this was my second experience as worldpacker... and i could said is one of the bes moments of my life. Irene and Ester are awesome girls, they made me feel like home, the job is easy but you need to have patient with the dogs, you can learn a lot in this place. Masnou is a near city to Barcelona, so i recommend you to come here with the best vibe and energy ! I will be back soon.

We've been here for 5 months and we work every day to make it a better place. It's separated from the city and, besides being fully explained, that's the magic of the place. In the city you don't have views like these or this peace :)

Work in INOSH for me was a good experience. You can have a big experience taking care of dogs during the nights (7pm to 11am), at this period you have a room to stay with all the dogs and there you have a kitchen, room and bathroom. I really recomend for persons who like animals and dogs, for them was gonna be a great experience. Irene and Ester was really nice people and always helpfull to solve every problems and to help you when you need.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the whole team for the opportunity, the trust, and the warmth! Especially, thanks to all the canine angels. There were many, but I want to mention some who left a little paw: Chupito, Olaf, Ragnar, Lia, Fiora, Job, Mango, Lili, Hiru, Jade, Set, Nano, Davor, Lomito, Frida, Boss, and my dear Cala. My little great teachers! The experience was so positive that I decided to extend my stay. I recommend La Canina to those who want to live an experience to connect with nature, the animals, learn and contribute with affection. Eternally grateful ✨
