Pet care and cleaning
The experience
We are looking for responsible volunteers who love animals and want to help us with simple day-to-day tasks: cleaning the house and caring for our cats.
We live in a village in a peaceful rural setting, but in the center of the village there are all the services and very good access to Vilafranca del Penedès. We share our home with our dog Noa and several cats, so it is essential that you like animals.

Program Details
Our volunteering program is a simple and balanced exchange, designed to share day-to-day life in a family environment.
The help consists of basic tasks such as cleaning and house maintenance, as well as caring for our cats: feeding, litter box cleaning and disinfection of their spaces
Volunteering is usually done in the morning, with all afternoons free.
In return, we offer accommodation in an independent bungalow with a private room, where you can enjoy your own space.
You will also have the opportunity to live in a natural setting, get to know the area and enjoy a cultural exchange experience.
We live in Torrelles de Foix, a town surrounded by nature with good connections to Vilafranca del Penedès and Barcelona
We are looking for responsible, clean and committed people, with a good attitude and respect for animals and the environment.
Activities & Shift
Five-hour shifts per day are normally done in the morning from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., so all afternoons are free.
There are two days off per week, rotating or fixed depending on what is agreed with the volunteer; we are flexible.
Rules
Smoking inside the bungalow and in the common areas is strictly prohibited.
Alcohol consumption or any kind of drugs is not allowed during the stay.
If you have food or environmental allergies, you must let us know in advance.
Respectful, clean and responsible behavior is expected.
