Take our dogs for runs in nature near Girona, Spain

  Description

  We are Michèle and Julio from a rural guest house 15 minutes from Girona surrounded by nature, where we welcome guests from all over the world in our 8 suites.
  
  Breakfast is included in the stay, which we prepare every morning from 8am to 12, and we are looking for someone to help us with our two dogs, Baba and Piu, while we take care of breakfast and our guests.
  
  We are not looking for any kind of help with our business, but rather one or two people who like dogs and can spend a few hours a day with them. In exchange, we offer accommodation and food, and of course there will be an exchange, which could be linguistic and cultural, and above all we hope to build a nice relationship with the person(s) in question.
  
  To accommodate this single person or this couple, in addition to the farmhouse, we have an annex studio with a full bathroom, kitchen, wood-burning stove, Wi-Fi and garden.
  
  We would like to find the person(s) as soon as possible, as we urgently need help.
  
  We look forward to hearing from you
  
  Michèle and Julio

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Together we speak 5 languages and we can offer language (Spanish, Catalan, and/or English, French and German) and cultural exchange. Additionally, travellers could learn about the daily management of a rural hotel and, in their free time, discover Catalonia (Girona, Barcelona and the Costa Brava).

  Help

  Take care of our two dogs, Baba and Piu, who are a Weimaraner and a Dalmatian. They are very good but intense. They need to go out in the morning to run along the river and through the fields, and then they need some company while we prepare breakfast.

  Accommodation

  We have a 30m2 loft studio that can accommodate a couple in a double bed or a single person, with a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, bathroom, living room, fenced garden, wood-burning stove and washing machine, located next to the main farmhouse.
  
  We will ensure that our workawayers have three meals a day throughout the week. We will prepare the meals ourselves and share them with the workawayers to encourage linguistic or cultural exchange, or whatever else is possible. In the event that we are working and cannot share meals, the workawayers will have the possibility to prepare their own meals in the kitchen in the studio where they will be staying. We will ensure that they have all the necessary ingredients to prepare delicious meals and/or we will give them the money they need to do the shopping themselves.

  What else ...

  In their time off, our helpers can enjoy Catalonia's culture and nature (they can visit cities such as Barcelona and Girona, or the coastal areas around i.e. the Costa Brava), or they can go inland and discover beautiful areas like La Garrotxa.

  My animals / pets

  

  Piula (1 year)

  Piula is a Dalmatian dog, somewhat calmer than Baba but also in need of exercise. She is 1½ years old and is very good and very affectionate. She is also very attached to us, and we would like her to get used to being with other people and not feel anxious if we are not there with her.

  

  Baba (5 years)

  Baba is a Weimaraner, a hunting breed known for its intense nature. She is just over 5 years old and is very good-natured and affectionate. She is very attached to us because she has always been by our side, both in our leisure time and at work. We want her to get used to being with more people and not feel anxious if we are not with her. We need to keep her away when we are with customers, which is during breakfast time.
