Descripción
I am a swiss Dog Trainer that has been living on Lanzarote for over 26 years.
I am a coach for dogs and people, instructor for mantrailing, detection and medical alert dogs, nutricionist and therapist.
I enjoy life with 3 dogs.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje

Our finca (old farmhouse) is located in a small village, very quiet and peaceful.
if you are interested in dog training you are in luck! I can offer you insight in how I work with positive reinforcement and reward based training.
During your stay you will have the opportunity to learn Spanish, visit all the tourist places, or even go on a short trip to one of the other 7 canary islands.
I own a car with an automatic gearbox, so you will need to have a driver license.
We also have a bike you can use.Ayuda
We will need help around the house and with the 3 dogs.
These include:
- cleaning the house and garden
- cooking lunch, we are mainly vegetarian, but sometimes (organic) meat eaters, so please no dogmatic vegans!
The old finca (under monument protection) needs repairs again and again.
Painting, woodwork, cementing and other small construction work.
There is always something to do
You can help:
- support in the development of workshops/seminars and webinars, taking photos and editing videos (dog related)
Therefore you need good IT, social media and marketing skills, and be fluent in English or Spanish
- looking after the house and dogs sometimes when I need to travel
That's why I'm looking for an adult, proactive and responsible person/couple
In your free time:
I give you the opportunity to learn about force free dog training while we walk the dogs or you can join the mantrailing class.
As I am training detection dogs, medical alert dogs for diabetics, ESA, Mantrailing dogs, I guarantee for quality and 3 decades of experience.
You can help me in this special training with the dogs. These dogs must solve and master special tasks.
Please:
Even though Lanzarote is known as a holiday destination, I ask you not to confuse this with Holiday-away.
Based on my many years of experience, I find that some workawayers want to come on holiday as their main purpose.
Please only apply if you are really capable of proactively helping out and working with the appropriate skills.
Important!
Please check the calendar and apply for free time only. The minimum stay is 1 month, better 2 month.
No youngsters under 25 years
No smokers!Idiomas hablados

You will be staying in an independent studio with your own bathroom and kitchen.
You can either eat with us or cook in your own kitchen, it is up to you. Normally we buy ecological vegetables on the farmer's market.Algo más...
There is a bus stop about 20 minutes away that can take you almost anywhere.
We have a beach nearby, and some attractions, but since the island is small, you can be anywhere in maximum one hour by car.
It is perfect for surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, hiking, diving, and just enjoying the volcanic nature and the ocean. Also very good and fresh seafood!
Important: Please remember that this is a PRIVATE home, it's not a hostel or business.
Therefore the workawayer will need:
-Personal liability insurance (Haftpflichtversicherung) that includes loss of keys. You can get it online if you don’t already have it. Sometimes it is included in your travel insurance.
- health insurance
- you need a driving licence and good driving experience, we have an automatic car.Un poco más de información

As soon as they arrived, they were absolutely proactive and wanted to get started straight away.
We first sat down to explain the individual tasks.
From then on we were in the flow. While Catherine mainly helped me with the training, videos and translations, Rob supported us and acted as a good soul in… read more
It was nice to have met you, you are always welcome back here!
Liz is an expert, and I saw signs of it every day of the week. I got to accompany her on walks, training, mantrailing sessions and had the chance to ask her all the questions I had. I am very thankful that I had the opportunity to learn so much directly… read more

I was lucky to stay 1,5 months in November / December while I could watch the cutest Papillon puppies grow up.
It was very impressive to see how Liz is acting with her dogs. I’ve… read more
That was impressive!
I was waiting at the airport with my therapy dog, you came up the escalator, we had the first eye contact, Don Pepito dashed off towards you and greeted you effusively like an old friend! That was the beginning of a wonderful time with you .
How intelligent dogs are ! He immediately took you into… read more
As soon as he was here, my wonderful mantrailing and therapy dog Tasha passed suddenly away. I was in shock and the following days/weeks I only functioned somehow. The pain was so deep, I did not notice a lot of it.
Pablo was simply the savior in the emergency. He was by my side and that was so good. He… read more
One of my very best workaway experiences. Probably the best one. I spent 4 wonderful months in Lanzarote with Liz, Tinka, Sina, Calima, Don Pepito, Chispa & Ayla. Sadly we lost Tasha, who passed away during my first days with them. She was an amazing and unforgettable dog.
Liz gave me a lot of freedom about… read more

We are very thankful for this experience.
They hosted us in a flat and with a car. What an opportunity to discover Lanzarote which is, by the way, incredible with its landscapes, its vulcanos, and the… read more
The two are just fantastic and proactive. On the first day we discussed the daily work, they wrote everything down and then I never had to mention it again. I could allow myself to be absent for 2 weeks. I knew my dogs were in the… read more

The two are a perfect couple for any host. They work lovingly hand in hand. They work absolutely independently and respectfully in dealing with humans and animals. They create a beautiful atmosphere in the house. The food is… read more
She has an incredible feeling for animals. All my dogs lay at her feet or on their knees and were always looking for her. In the training I never had to explain much, she immediately grasped what was meant and implemented it with fun. I could trust her with my therapy dogs without any problems.… read more
