We are a retired German couple (teacher and executive secretary) now free for new tasks with much interest in foreign countries and people. We are nonsmokers and are both very fit, active and young at heart. We see house sitting as an opportunity to live, temporarily, in different locations as "residents" rather than tourists. Having lived in the US for nine years on an assignment we enjoyed meeting different people and making new friends. Being homeowners ourselves now for more than thirty years, we are sensitive people, used to caring for a property and dealing with any issues that may arise. We will look after your home in all its aspects with careful attention to detail. We can carry out basic maintenance, gardening and pool care. Chris has a green thumb, and we like dogs (had a lab for 13 years)and are sítting a Belgian shepherd several times a year. We are well-organized, honest and trustworthy, can be relied on and would treat your home with respect. We are looking for a safe, well-kept home to sit from four weeks to two months in the US, Caribbean, Spain, Italy, Croatia, South East Asia,
