Holidays without guilt.

Your pet stays in the countryside, not in a cage. A farmhouse and a fenced meadow outside Girona, two walks a day, and a photo and video of your pet on WhatsApp every evening at 19:00.

4.9 on Google from 186 reviews. Nine years open, about 2,300 stays.

The fenced meadow at Casa del Prat: long green grass running to a line of pines under a summer sky.

«Em sap greu deixar-lo en una gàbia.»

“I hate leaving him in a cage.” It’s what owners write to us before a holiday. So we built a place without cages.

“I want to see he is happy, not just alive.”

Every evening at 19:00 you get a photo and a short video of your pet on WhatsApp. Not a status update, your actual dog doing his actual evening.

“Last time he came back thin and scared.”

He eats his own food on his own schedule, which we write down with you before the stay. Two walks a day in the meadow, rest on a bed, and never more than three dogs in a room, matched by size and temperament.

“Can I get photos every day?”

Yes, every day. The first one arrives within an hour of drop-off, so by the time you’re home, you know he has settled in.

A farmhouse, a meadow and a sofa.

Casa del Prat was Núria’s grandparents’ farmhouse in Sant Gregori. Since 2017 it has been a holiday home for other people’s pets: never more than 12 dogs and 8 cats at once, so everyone gets known by name.

The meadow seen from its edge, pines on the far side.
4,000 m², all fenced The meadow. Long grass, pines along the edge, and a fence all the way round.

Rooms with beds. No cages, anywhere.

Dogs sleep in rooms with proper beds and wooden floors, up to three dogs per room. We pair them by size and temperament at the trial visit, so a nervous greyhound doesn’t end up next to a teenage labrador.

Old dogs are welcome, with their medicine schedule. Puppies from six months, once their vaccines are done.

Cats have their own room.

A quiet room of their own, with blankets and nobody rushing them. Cats who hate being left alone at home tend to like it more than their owners expect. €22 a night.

Birds and small animals too.

Tell us their routine at the trial visit and we keep to it: food, light, quiet hours. €18 a night.

A day at Casa del Prat.

Every guest’s day follows the same quiet shape: two walks round the meadow, rest in between, and a message to you in the evening.

Is it right for your pet?

A good fit if

  • You live in Girona or Barcelona and you’re away for one to three weeks.
  • Your cat hates being left alone at home, and you hate leaving her.
  • You work long days and your dog needs company two or three days a week.
  • Your dog is old, anxious, or just a bit particular.

Not the place if

  • Your dog can’t be around other dogs. Everyone here shares the meadow, and we’d rather tell you now.
  • You’re looking for the cheapest kennel. We’re not it, and we’re not a kennel.

What owners tell us afterwards.

“Luna came back calmer than she left. I got a video every evening.”

Marta R., owner of Luna, a beagle

“Our cat usually hides for days after a cattery. Here she came home and slept on the sofa.”

Jordi S., owner of Mixa

“The trial visit sold me: I saw the meadow and the room where he would sleep.”

Who looks after them.

“I worked in a vet clinic and saw what kennels did to anxious dogs. In 2017 we turned my grandparents’ farmhouse into the place I wanted for my own dog: a meadow, a sofa, and someone who sends you a video every evening. I believe a pet should come back from your holiday as rested as you.”

Founder. Vet nurse for eleven years, from 2006 to 2017, and a pet first-aid instructor.

If someone gets ill

Clínica Veterinària Montilivi is 8 minutes away and on call. We phone you first.

Questions people ask before booking.

Can I visit first?

Yes, and we’d like you to. The trial visit is free, takes 30 minutes, and you bring your pet. Book it at least two days ahead on WhatsApp.

Will my dog sleep in a cage?

No. Dogs sleep in rooms with beds, never more than three to a room, grouped by size and temperament.

What if he gets ill?

Clínica Veterinària Montilivi is 8 minutes away and on call. We call you first, before anything is decided. Núria was a vet nurse for eleven years, so we notice early.

Do you take puppies or old dogs?

Puppies from six months, with their vaccines done. Old dogs, yes, gladly: bring their medicines and we follow their schedule.

Can I get photos?

Every evening at 19:00, a photo and a video on WhatsApp. On drop-off day, the first photo comes within an hour.

Isn’t it a bit far?

We’re 25 minutes from Girona, in Sant Gregori. If that’s a problem, we collect your pet in Girona and bring them back for €10 each way.

When can I drop off and pick up?

Between 8:00 and 10:00 in the morning, or between 18:00 and 20:00 in the evening.

How do I pay?

At pick-up, by card or Bizum. No deposit.

My dog doesn’t like other dogs. Can he come?

If he can’t be with other dogs at all, Casa del Prat isn’t the right place: the meadow and the rooms are shared. If he’s just shy, bring him to the trial visit and we’ll see together.

19:00

Somewhere on your holiday, your phone lights up.

It’s your dog, in the meadow, tired in the good way. That’s the whole idea. Come and see the place first: half an hour, free, with your pet.
