    Description

    Hi there, I am looking for someone to take care of my lovely older cat in July, I will be gone 10 - 21 July and would love if you could come a few days before we leave to show you everything. Possibility of leaving you my car but would prefer if you could rent one for your stay.

    We are located 10 minutes from the nearest beach (by car) but there are so many beautiful beaches all around!

    This is the first time I want to try it this way so that the cat is not too lonely. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, lots of toys if you come with a child, community swimming pool, awesome views (located 13 minutes from city center, surrounded by nature). Good WiFi.

    Hola, estoy buscando a alguien que cuide de mi adorable gato mayor en julio. Estaré fuera del 10 al 21 de julio y me encantaría que vinieras unos días antes de nuestra partida para enseñarte todo. Existe la posibilidad de dejarte mi coche, pero preferiría que alquilaras uno para tu estancia.

    Estamos a 10 minutos de la playa más cercana (en coche), ¡pero hay muchísimas playas preciosas por los alrededores!

    Es la primera vez que quiero probarlo así para que el gato no se sienta demasiado solo. 3 dormitorios, 2 baños, muchos juguetes si vienes con un niño, piscina comunitaria, vistas impresionantes (situado a 13 minutos del centro de la ciudad, rodeado de naturaleza). Buena conexión wifi.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are a small, open-minded family led by a single mom who homeschools her child and values a calm, healthy lifestyle.

    We enjoy cooking healthy meals, spending time outdoors, and driving around to visit small villages nearby to experience local traditions and simple Spanish life. We love learning about other cultures and hearing stories from different parts of the world, and we’re always happy to share our culture as well.

    Watering plants and feeding the cat, cleaning her toilet, making sure she always has fresh water, taking care of the house. The cat loves cuddles in the early morning and at night before sleep, but is perfectly fine if you don't play with her too much. She loves to spend time on the balcony.
