Your Main Responsibilities:
Dog Care (Priority #1):
Feeding: Serve their food portions at the established times (morning and night).
Walks: Do two daily walks at a slow pace. Being senior dogs, they do not require intense exercise, but they should go out to sniff and stretch their legs.
Companionship: They are of very noble and calm nature, so they greatly value human presence at home during most of the day.
Health: Stay attentive to any changes in their energy and ensure they always have fresh water.
Home Maintenance:
Basic Cleaning: Keep order and cleanliness of the common areas and the areas where the dogs sleep.
Safety: Ensure the house is well closed when leaving and overnight on the property every night.
Plants: Simple plant watering.
Volunteer Requirements:
Previous experience with dogs (ideally with senior dogs).
A calm, clean and respectful person with the convivencia rules.
Sense of responsibility and constant communication (occasional photos/videos for updates).
What we offer:
Prime location: You are just minutes from the best cafes, museums and cultural life in Guadalajara.
Relaxed environment: The dogs are very gentle and make the stay easy; they are not destructive nor require complex training.
Fully equipped home: Access to kitchen, laundry, wifi services, bicycle and a comfortable living space.
Routine is key: At 9 and 10 years old, dogs tend to be habit-driven; we will explain how they are.
I'll tell you a bit about the activities. A strict schedule isn't required; the suggested duration could be 3 and a half hours in the morning and 1 and a half hours in the afternoon/evening; after finishing the activities you can take the rest of the day to explore and learn. Mondays are days off since we receive support from an external person; these days can be flexible with good communication.
Unregistered third parties are not allowed to enter the home, therefore parties or gatherings are not allowed. Keep your bedroom and common areas clean.
