About this sitter

We are Marco and Tessa. We love houses and architecture and enjoy to experience different ways of living. We like to discover new areas and cultures, currently around Europe. We like to work with our hands and have a lot of experience in building, renovating, gardening and maintenance. Marco’s first career was in gardening. Recently we started working online. Marco is from Switzerland and Tessa is from Holland. Our sweet dog is from Sardinia, he is well-behaved, clean, calm and sometimes a bit shy.
We are open for houses with a certain quality, a house where you can feel well.

Why they want to house sit

We are currently discovering where we would like to live long term and exploring certain areas in a more in-depth way, an opportunity for those in need of long and short term sitters.

Their experience

We have experience with workaway and taking care of other people’s houses.

What can they bring to the assignment

We like things clean and well organised. We are able to work with our hands. We are uncomplicated, simple and direct. We enjoy to bring positivity and improvement into the houses where we stay.

Testimonials

Excelled all expectations. Lovely couple, reliable, competent, respectful.

Tessa & Marco took all the stress out of our long, and then extended house sit, through awful unexpected weather and did so with competence and no stress. They are a very happy and truly likeable couple, eco friendly and clean living. They are incredibly self-sufficient and pro-active, handy with DIY and great at keeping the garden tidy and paths weeded. They kept the property and there living areas immaculately clean. Would highly recommend to anyone as they really are an asset to have look after your property. We don't have any pets but they have a cute rescue dog which they adore and treat really nicely.
