Gran Canaria is well covered for veterinary care, with two 24-hour hospitals (one in Las Palmas, one in the southern Vecindario area near the resorts) and good clinics around Maspalomas. As Spain is in the EU, an EU pet passport with up-to-date rabies vaccination and a microchip is all most European winter-sun travellers need, with no quarantine.
