About this sitter

We are Christel and Rob, 45 and 63 years old, and we’ve been married for over 15 years. Rob has two adult children, and we don’t have children together.

Both Rob and Christel have served in the military. Rob is retired after 42 years of service, and Christel served for 17 years. She now works as a self-employed nurse.

We travel a lot and enjoy life to the fullest. We often spend time in Curaçao and on cruise ships.

We love hiking, good food, and relaxing on the beach or by the pool. We’re active yet calm. We don’t smoke or use drugs.

We're looking for a comfortable, non-smoking home where we can care for the pets that are present. We’re happy to follow any specific routines or instructions to ensure your pets are happy, safe, and well looked after while you're away. A calm environment with good communication is important to us, and we’re open to both short- and longer-term sits.

Why they want to house sit

We enjoy house and pet sitting because it allows us to experience new places in a more personal and meaningful way. We love the idea of helping others enjoy their travels with peace of mind, knowing their home and beloved pets are in caring and responsible hands.

As travelers ourselves, we understand the importance of trust and reliability. We genuinely enjoy the company of animals and the calm routine that comes with caring for them. House sitting also fits perfectly with our lifestyle – it gives us the opportunity to slow down, explore new surroundings, and give back in a way that feels rewarding.

Their experience

Although we're new to this platform, we have experience caring for dogs and cats in both Curaçao and the Netherlands.

What can they bring to the assignment

We bring a sense of responsibility, reliability, and genuine care to every house sit. With experience looking after pets, we're confident handling daily routines, administering basic care, and providing lots of love and attention.

Testimonials

Christel and Rob were perfect

Christel and Rob were perfect. As people they have many years of selfless help for others and are kind and thoughtful. As Pet Sitters, there is nothing more you could wish for. They communicated early and often as we planned our trip. They made special arrangements to come early to meet us our and learn the specifics of our home. While we were away, they sent timely updates about the animals with pictures. Upon our return, the home was perfectly clean and the pets were happy. Consider yourself lucky if Chrystal and Rob apply to watch your pets and home.
