Take our dogs for runs in nature near Girona, Spain

  Description

  Hello,
  
  We are Michèle and Julio, and we run a small rural guest house just 15 minutes from Girona, surrounded by nature. We welcome guests from all over the world in our eight comfortable suites and truly enjoy the sense of connection that comes with this way of life.
  
  Breakfast is included in our guests’ stay and is prepared fresh every morning between 8:30am and 10:30am. During this time, we are fully focused on looking after our guests, which is why we are looking for someone to help us with our two dogs, Baba and Piu, and with the preparation of meals for our family. We also run a small restaurant, that offers lunch picnics and fine dinner service. The chef it's always open to receive some help in the kitchen!
  
  We are looking for one person — or preferably a couple — who enjoys being around dogs and would be happy to spend a few hours each day caring for them, as well as helping with simple, nourishing meals for the team, and depending on the season some gardening, etc. During the busy season we often find ourselves eating leftovers and not taking the best care of ourselves, so this support would make a real difference to our daily lives.
  
  In exchange, we offer accommodation and food, along with a genuine cultural and human exchange. We would love to build a warm, respectful relationship with the person or people who join us and share daily life here.
  
  For accommodation, we can offer either an independent annex studio with its own bathroom, kitchen, wood-burning stove, Wi-Fi and garden. We also have a big and full equipped tent if you prefer to sleep surrounded by nature.
  
  We would need this help from the beginning of April at the latest, when our mid/high season begins and our days become much fuller — making it difficult for us to properly care for the dogs and for ourselves without support.
  
  We very much look forward to hearing from you.
  
  Warm regards,
  Michèle and Julio

  Aide

  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.

  Mes animaux

  

  Piula (2 ans)

  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 (6 ans)

  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.
