About this sitter
We're MartÃn, from Uruguay and Dayanne, from Brazil. We met online in 2014 and have been together since!
In June 2018, we decided to sell all our belongings and our apartment in Brazil to travel more freely as nomads. We both work remotely for international companies, so we spend most of our time at home.
This means we're ideal house-sitters, ready to keep a vigilant eye to your home, property and furry babies!
Martin is a web developer who is currently working on his own web app. Dayanne is an archaeologist who creates content for online companies. She is also writing a book about the life on the road.
We're organized (Marie Kondo level) and love to keep the place we're staying in spotless, no matter if it's a rented place, a house sit, or a hotel room. We always treat it as our own. In other words, we have a great deal of respect for the person and home that welcomes us in every destination.
We're good with details. Tell us about your needs, concerns and we'll never forget to keep you on the loop.
We speak fluent Spanish, Portuguese and English.
*2022* update
After the pandemic, we settled in a beach at Florianopolis, Brazil, and adopted two bunnies, Ollie and Floqui.
Why they want to house sit
We'd like to house sit because we're looking for a different experience from what we've been doing so far. Our current speed of travel is slow, meaning we like to stay at least a month in one place to have a sense of work-routine. Our schedule is as open as it can be. So combine these two, and we're tailor-made to be great house-sitters.
It's also important to say we're extremely conscious about environment issues and the impacts of tourism.
We do what we can to minimize our impact, and that is also what brought us to house sitting. We think it's a perfect and clever idea to unite people who want to explore the world responsibly and people who need someone to take care of their home and pets while away (we know by personal experience that hotels for pets can be very expensive and you need a trusted person to watch your house, water your plants, etc.).
Their experience
Yes! We've successfully completed 5 long term house sittings during 2019 and 2020.
As home owners, we know what it takes to keep a house clean and tidy, and we had our share of experiences to know our way around house-maintenance.
As a bonus, we have plenty of time and affection for pets, whether it's dogs, cats, bunnies (!!!!), you name it.
What can they bring to the assignment
If you're looking for a responsible and reliable couple to keep your house safe and ir order while you're gone, we might be a good match for you.

Testimonials
Amazing House sitters!
We can't thank Martin and Dayanne enough for taking such wonderful care of our home and our dog. They are competent, thoughtful and responsible house sitters who communicated fantastically with us in the month that we were out of the country. They are tidy and respectful and actually left our house much cleaner than we left it! They arrived early and stayed with us for a few nights before we flew out and we felt really lucky to get to know a really down to earth happy couple. I have no hesitation in recommending their service to anyone. We wish them all the best in their travels and hopefully our paths will cross again one day. Thanks guys xx

5-Star Reference
I highly recommend Martin and Dayanne, they were neat and tidy, trusted pet sitter/house-sitters. Independent, and capable, this lovely vegetarian couple efficiently cared for my coastal home in Mexico for three months in the summer 2019, They maintained all in shipshape order, managed two employees and best of all tenderly cared for my three pets, three dogs and a cat. Communication was easy, they are responsive, thoughtful, intelligent, energetic, enthusiastic and electronically connected. As a homeowner I find Martin and Dayanne are welcome guests Place this well traveled, poly-lingual couple at the top of your list!

Reliable and trustworthy
Martin and Dayanne undertook the care of our dog and two cats, as well as a large property in rural Ecuador, for six weeks while we traveled. For our peace of mind we usually tend to choose mature couples when we seek housesitters for our property, relying on maturity and long life experience but it was evident from our initial Skype meeting that they were very serious, contentious and reliable. We weren't disappointed: they took care of our animals brilliantly (our dog was visible sad to see them go), they were home based most of the time and respected our house rules diligently. They proved to be very handy and showed problem solving skills when it came to unexpectedly leaking taps and other minor issues. The house was handed over immaculately clean. We couldn't recommend them enough.

First class house and pet sitters
Martin and Dayanne looked after my house, gardens and six pets for a month. And I can recommend them to anyone looking for conscientious, honest, hard working couple. First the pets: my three dogs loved walking with them so much that when I arrived back from my trip, the dogs continued leaving the house ( without me) for the next few days before they left. This doesn't always happen! Once I'm back they only leave the house with me. Secondly my three cats were a good weight which means that Martin and Dayanne supervised meal times which I had asked them to do yo stop the dogs eating the cats food! Had they not done so I would have come back to thin cats and fat dogs. As to the house. It had never been so clean.. Dayanne likes to keep a tidy, clean house, and it showed. Marvellous! Onto the garden; I really didn't expect all my young plants to survive, but Martin and Dayanne kept it well watered and it wad immaculate on my return. Nothing got broken, no incidents and they even paid a bill or two while I was away and they kept me updated and informed all the time I was away. Both speak English so when they arrive there are no communication problems. I can 100% recommend Martin and Dayanne to house sit and pet sit anyone who they contact.
