Dog-Friendly Villas and Fincas in Mallorca

For a dog, a finca in the countryside is usually the better choice: large grounds, shade under the trees, paths between the fields right outside the door. Whether the plot is fenced is shown by the Fenced plot filter above the listings, but not every fence is dog-proof, and we will tell you from our visits. Villas in coastal villages have smaller gardens but promenades and coastal paths close by. One thing to know for the summer: Mallorca is hot in July and August, and many beaches are closed to dogs in season; early morning and evening are the best times for walks.

To enter Spain, your dog needs an EU pet passport, a microchip and a valid rabies vaccination given at least 21 days before travel (Regulation (EU) No 576/2013); dogs from outside the EU need an animal health certificate. By air, small dogs travel in the cabin and larger ones in the hold, under the airline's rules. By car and ferry from Barcelona or Valencia the journey is calmer for many dogs, and some ferries have pet-friendly cabins. Hire cars are subject to the provider's terms. There are vets in every larger town on the island; we will gladly name the nearest to your house.

Every house on this page has a private pool. Whether the dog may swim in it is the owner's decision, and most prefer not: chlorinated water, hair in the filter and scratches on the lining are the reasons. We ask on your behalf so you know before you travel. A dog bed, bowls or a dog sitter for a day out can be arranged by our concierge on request, at an additional cost. All houses with a private pool, with or without a dog, are in our villas with pool collection; fincas in the countryside in our luxury fincas collection.
