Trusted German couple on sabbatical – pet, home & garden experts – 4 languages + Spanish in progress

About this sitter

I am a reliable, responsible and hardworking person who, together with my wife, places great value on order, respect and commitment. We treat every home with the utmost care, as if it were our own.
We love nature and prefer to spend our time outdoors. Animals have been part of our lives for many years, and we have experience caring for dogs, cats and chickens. We understand that every animal has individual needs, which is why we provide attentive, patient and genuinely caring support.
From a house-sitting assignment, I hope for a relationship based on trust, clear communication and the opportunity to experience a place in a mindful way. Our priority is that homeowners can travel with peace of mind, knowing that their home and their animals are in safe and responsible hands.

Why they want to house sit

My wife and I have consciously taken a break from our regular working life and are currently traveling to gain new experiences and broaden our horizons. We are not interested in traveling as tourists, but in getting to know a country and its people in an authentic way — experiencing everyday life, culture and the different facets of a place.
We are open to different countries, very flexible with our time, and grateful for this special phase of our lives. House-sitting allows us to travel responsibly while treating a home with respect, attention and reliability.

Their experience

Yes, we have real and practical experience in taking care of homes and animals. We have often looked after dogs for family members, including feeding, walking and daily care.
In the past, we had our own cats at home and kept chickens in our garden and allotment garden. Because of this, we understand the daily routine and responsibility that animals require.
Last year, we lived for several months in a small village in Greece at a friend’s house. During that time, we managed the house, maintained the garden, took care of the chickens and looked after a cat. This experience showed us what it truly means to take responsibility for a home and animals in a reliable and consistent way.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring a strong sense of responsibility, calmness and reliability. My wife and I treat both property and animals with respect and care. It is natural for us to follow agreements carefully and maintain established routines.
We act consciously, keep everything clean and orderly, and care for the home and animals with attention and consistency. Homeowners can feel confident that their home is in safe and honest hands.
