About this sitter

We are a Dutch couple. Retired, fit and healthy. With responsible jobs in the past. We are non smokers. We are experienced travelers and speak several languages: Dutch, English, German, French, Portuguese, Spanish and a little Italian. We love to be outside in Nature. We have experience with house sitting (references on request), small animals, gardening, housekeeping and its maintenance. We have a car. We have a Police Certificate. We can send it upon request. We have a little female dog that adopted us on an assignment in Italy. She is very well behaved and used to being with other animals. We are currently house sitting in Germany on a long term basis. No animals so we are free to housesit anywhere, especially during the cold months when there’s not much work to do.
Hobbies: painting, traditional healing ( Ayurveda, Jin Shin Jyutsu, TCM), hiking, biking, gardening, do even and odd jobs, enjoy life.

Why they want to house sit

We have time to spend and love to travel and experience new places and people. House sitting provides us with this opportunity.

We speak various languages (see above listing). We have a car. We are very handy and organised. We are familiar with dealing with the unexpected.

Testimonials

7 months in rural Italy

George and Anouk have been fantastic. Our next house sitters will have a tough time filling their shoes. The house was spotless, our dogs taken care of beautifully - loads of walks, love and attention. George managed all the small things which came up around the house. They maintained the garden and enjoyed the bounty which the land presented to them. I highly recommend them and would love to have them house sit again for us.
