We are a adventures couple retired and living in Vienna, we love to travel and we are flexible as to where to live, we speak english, german and italian. We have lived in several countries and are able to make a home wherever we go.

We love new places to visit and we do not keep pets because of our extensive travel so we just pet other peoples pets.

Testimonials

Friendly & Competent Petsitters

Ilse & Helmud cared for our pets very well & were the first sitters to look after our nervous rescue dog. They kept in touch beforehand to agree arrangements & provided brief updates during our holiday. A friendly couple, they competently looked after all our critters, thank you both.

Friendly and caring house sitters we can count on

Ilse and her husband are friendly and caring house sitters. The dog walked twice a day. The cat was well fed. The house was tidy. There is nothing more to ask from them. Ilse kept me updated while we were away for a week. On my way home, she even called me to let me know the road home was icy and to be extra careful. They are a very thoughtful couple. Thanks again.
