Hi, hubbie & I are planning to move to Javea next year.
We have a lovely spaniel who doesn't do well in kennels so are looking for an alternative if we need to go away without him.
At the moment in the uk we have a great arrangement with a local lady who has him to stay with her & her family (including her dog) in her house and are wondering if anyone knows of any similar possibilities in the Javea area??
Thanks for any help!

As Concierge for the Spanish section of BE I would like to say hello and welcome.

BE is a very large expat website, so if you have problems finding your way around we have concierges who will try to direct you. The moderators for the Spanish forums are Mitzyboy and Fred James, moderators are there to ensure that the site runs smoothly within the rules of BE. Problems and complaints should always be addressed to a moderador who will look into the matter and deal with it efficiently and fairly. Our members who post in the Spain Forums are friendly and helpful with a wealth of knowledge of the issues of living in Spain. At the top of the page you will find a quirkily named thread called Free Beer which is full of important and useful information. Hope you enjoy your time participating in the forums.

Please let me know if you need any further help.

I found a cat sitter just by asking a local I knew who loves animals who he would recommend. I feel the cats are much happier at home and the house gets checked twice a day. Not sure if this would work with dogs though.

We use to live in Javea and would never put the dogs in kennels. We use to have a lady do exactly what you require.

I will send you a PM with details.

Thanks Angie, as you say not sure this will work with dogs, but can ask around anyway.

That's brilliant, thanks Debbie...will check out your message
