Program Details
We offer a peaceful stay designed for those looking to disconnect near the ocean and connect with local life. Your main role is to provide serenity and presence for our cats, ensuring a harmonious environment while we are away. As young hosts, we value mutual respect and the simplicity of life in Guanacaste. If you are looking for a peaceful haven minutes from the coast and a family-like atmosphere, this is the place for you.
Activities & Shift
The collaboration is 4 hours a day, 4 days a week, with 3 days off. We are very flexible: if you come as a couple, you can coordinate to take your shifts together and enjoy your free time at the same time, or separately if you prefer. Everything is negotiable with prior organization so the home runs smoothly. Main tasks include caring for our cats and keeping common areas and your own spaces clean and tidy.

Booking: Full payment via transfer prior to arrival. Non-refundable in case of early departure for personal reasons.
Respect: Kind treatment of our cats and mutual respect among everyone in the house is mandatory.
Prohibitions: Smoking inside the house, parties, and events are strictly prohibited.
Tidiness: Kitchenware must be washed immediately after use. Personal items must be kept inside the room, leaving the living room and common areas clear.
Security: No curfews, but please notify us if traveling far or staying out overnight for security purposes.

Important Note: Any breach of these rules, lack of respect toward hosts, or neglect of our pets will be grounds for immediate cancellation of the volunteer program without refund. We reserve the right to terminate the stay to maintain the harmony and safety of our home.
