Description
This opportunity is available from mid May 2025, for at least one month. Sorry but we are not able to accept applications for future periods, as it depends how long our workawayers will stay.
===================
Our names are Lanny and Claire, we own a small dive centre with apartments in Tulum, Mexico that specialises in Cave and Technical training.
We are also active with local dog charities that helps out with animals in need. We have fostered over 200 dogs and may have additional foster dogs to look after, as well as our own three dogs and six cats.
Tulum is a high-growth town in Quintana Roo, Mexico. It is a couple of hours south of Cancun and has a great beach and the best cave diving in the world.

Tulum attracts travellers from all over the world, and has some of the most beautiful Mayan ruins in Mexico. It is a friendly place and is a great location to learn Spanish.

This opportunity is available from mid May 2025 for at least one month. Sorry but we are not able to accept applications for future periods, as it depends how long our workawayers will stay.
We are looking for (ideally) a couple who can help us with our rescue dogs, our apartments and our dive clients. The main roles are dog walking each morning, packed lunch preparations for our dive guests, plus some administrative help, maintenance of our apartments and driving. One of our dogs is disabled, so she uses a wheelchair to go on her walks.
You must have a driving licence and ideally be able to speak Spanish.
If you don't like dogs, then this not a suitable Workaway for you! We already have dive centre staff, so unfortunately we don't need any help running the cave diving centre.

Autres infos...
There is loads to do in Tulum - eco tours, a great beach, ruins, good bars and restaurants. Although we are in a nice quiet neighbourhood, it is less than a mile to the centre of town and transport to the bigger towns of Playa del Carmen and Cancun is frequent and cheap.

We always have foster dogs on site, plus six cats, so they'd have to get on with everyone!

The accommodations was amazing and some others perks. The work is not difficult and you will love the dogs.
Claire always communicate well with us.
We would definitely recommend staying here to anybody.
That was, so far and by far, my best volonteering experience !
The tasks consist mostly in walking the dogs in the morning and evening in the jungle and running some errands in town (groceries, lavanderia) and making lunches for the guests.
