We are reliable and trustworthy.
In the past we've got 2 cats and one dog. From time to time we help our friends in the Polish mountains to take care of their goats. They are so cute.
In a house sit we are looking for a contact with animals. Unfortunately now we can not have the animals in our flat so house sitting is for us the opportunity to have a contact with them and show them our son. We are eager to help the owners to do some work around the house and garden.
We do travel a lot and love meeting new people. In such way we exchange our knowledge and experiences in our lives. We love nature and animal world and it’s very important for us to show this to our son.
We are eager to help the owners in garden works and keep them house clean.
We have been travelling by couchsurfing in the past.

We highly recommend Family Obrochta!
Kataryzna, Paul and Leon stayed at our place for three weeks. Organizing the sit was super easy and they were really flexible. During their stay they took care of our cat and our apartment. They were always easy to reach and gave us an update on our our cat and on our apartment whenever we wished for it. We felt really at ease and were able to enjoy our vacation to the fullest knowing that our cat was happy and taken care off. Getting home we were so happy to see that the appartment was tidy and clean. They even washed the bedsheets and left us a gentle letter plus welcome back gift. We would definitely recommend Family Obrochta as house sitters and wish them only the best!

The perfect housesitters
I was extremely nervous about my choice of house sitters after a previous bad experience, but after meeting Katarzyna and Powel, I was immediately reassured I had made a good choice. I must say I was heavily influenced by the testimonial from the house in Majorca where they were caught in lockdown, but I second all those comments by the owner. Fortunately there were no lockdowns while they were here, but Katarzyna and Paul are extremely conscientious and I feel they would work around any situation that they are presented with. When I got back everything about the place was in order and the animals happy and contented. What more can a house owner wish for? We had a little overlap at both ends of the sit, and witnessed that even little Leon had his “chores” overseen by mum or dad, such as feeding the dogs and cats which was so sweet. This is a lovely family who I would love to have again, and have no hesitation in recommending to others. I wish them all the best for their future sits

Wonderful people
What a wonderful little family ! Pawel and Kashya are extremely friendly, calm, and dedicated, and the little boy is just adorable. The three of them are very respectful, attentive, and caring and loving for animals. The house was taken great care of, and in addition we had some thoughtful and interesting contact and conversations. I really recommend them !

Farmhouse in Mallorca
We are so grateful to Kasia and Pawel. We can never repay them for the care, compassion, initiative and concientiousness they have shown to us. Originally, this wonderful little family, not forgetting precious toddler Leon, were coming to watch our farmhouse and pets while we went to Malaysia to visit our son and family. Then the covid-19 Pandemic made itself known. We were in lockdown in Malaysia for 3 and a half months!! This amazing little family kept out house secure and all of our precious pets safe, well fed, exercised and attended to all their needs, above and beyond all expectations. Kasia, Pawel and baby Leon are a joy to know. They WhatsApped often to reassure us all was well at home, sent little videos of the dogs and cats at play. Even a little video of the lovebirds. We cannot emphasise enough the gentle kindness and thoughtfulness of this lovely couple. They are so in tune with each other and little Leon is a real delight and never stops smiling. Pawel and Kasia cook together with little Leon looking on. They are into healthy eating and a very healthy, peaceful lifestyle. We recommend them in the highest way possible and would be absolutely thrilled if they would Housesit for us again any time we have to travel. If anyone has the chance to have this little family House and pet sit, grab the chance with both hands. You will never find anyone better. Yours sincerely, Sheila Alexander.
