  • Description

    Description

    I am living with my two sweet doggies in the beautiful north of Mallorca in a little Finca in the countryside. I need help with walking and spending time with the dogs in case I am out of the house for longer hours and some help in and around the house and garden: The little veggie garden and some plants need daily watering in the hotter months, there might be something to be built or painted or needs fixing...
    Occasionally I would also invite someone to stay dog and housesitting while I am away travelling.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I am German and have been living abroad in various countries over the past 15-20 years. I speak English, Spanish and Portuguese fluently and a good amount of French. I am happy to share and show you what I know about Mallorca. I studied Spanish and can teach you, as well as English or German. Cooking together and just sharing stories and experiences is what you can expect at my place. The next village is a 5 min drive away and can be easily reached walking or biking, so is a beautiful Cala and another beach.
    I meditate and practice yoga and different mindful practices that I am happy to share as well. And I am happy if you are into that too or have an interest. A peaceful and kind living environment is essential to me.

  • Help

    Help

    *Walking the dogs, making sure they are well, keeping them company, brushing them, playing with them, teaching them tricks if you are up for that :)
    I will make sure that they are used to you before leaving you 'alone' and show you nice walks.
    It would be great if you have a valid drivers licence, so you can take them to other places as well and help with tasks like shopping some times.
    *Some help around the house and garden, e.g. building things, painting, whatever is needed...

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You will be staying in a beautiful and cozy motorhome with your own kitchen and bathroom, just next to the finca where we live. Bedding and towels are provided. you will have your privacy and own space there.
    You are welcome to use the house as well at times, depending on how many people are there at the moment.
    There will be food provided for you, or a prepared meal or ingredients for you to use. This depends a bit on the hours you work. At times there will be very little to do, maybe 2 or 3 hs a day and then I d like you to ask to get your own food or contribute.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    You must be an absolute dog lover as the main task is to care for and be with my dogs. Having experience with dogs is appreciated. They are really sweet and loving, but need full attention when on walks for example, as they have a hunting instinct and I also like you to be present with them.

    I got a few requests of workaways travelling with cats or dogs and unfortunately that s impossible here. Exú & Nanã like their space and are quite territorial and protective about it.
    Same goes for children, they are both fairly big dogs and they like to chase each other around and have knocked me over doing that before just not watching out where they are running (into ;)

    There is public transport close to the house, about 15 mins walk, where main bus lines pass, to go the near beaches or villages as well as to go to Palma which is the biggest city on Mallorca.
    In the nearby smaller towns there are sports facilities, coffee places and lots of beautiful nature to explore.
    Most of the time you will also be able to use my bicycle and if you have a valid drivers licence and experience driving (manual, with a stick shift!), occasionally you can use my van to take yourself and the dogs out on trips

    For this it is important that you are at least 26 years old and have a valid drivers licence for more than 2 years as this is the insurance requirement.

    There is plenty of time apart from the help here to do your work / project online. I am using my data internet here and it works very well (zoom calls / Netflix etc). If you ever need a "super high speed" internet / have lots to upload download there is a co working 15 minutes walk from the house where you can also use the pool and find a little bistro, print etc. Or also former workaways enjoyed going to close by cafes for "cafe office" which I like to do / join sometimes as well.

    Space for parking camper vans

    If you come with your own van, there is space next to the house to park. We would have to check for the size and time you d like to stay, as I already have my motorhome parked by the house.
