About
We have been fully vaccinated and already have got our booster vaccination.
We are Heike and Stefan, a retired couple (electrical engineer and solicitor assistant) in our 50’s living in southwest Germany. We have been married for over 30 years, with two adult children. Therefore we have time for our favourite hobby, travelling around the world with a flexible schedule. We are both healthy, love the life, reliable, honest, well organized, tidy, non-smokers, quiet, kind and of course pet lovers. Our hobbies are hiking, swimming, gardening, playing board games, reading, cooking and visiting local markets, museums and small concerts. Furthermore Heike loves baking bread and Stefan is an enthusiastic craft beer home brewer with his own built stainless steel brewing machine.
Why we want to house sit
Housesitting is for us a wonderful possibility to feel at home while we are exploring the world, to live as locals at new places, with the unique chance to enhance our language skills (we speak English, a little French and Italian). At the moment we have no own pets so we can connect two great things: pet sitting and house sitting. Taking care about your pets, looking after your home and garden is an important responsibility for us, too. They are precious and will be treated with our love and welfare so we will give you peace of mind while you are away.
Our experience
We have taken several years care of animals and houses of friends and neighbours with their dogs and cats. Our children have had a little zoo with a grey parrot, two budgerigars, a guinea pig and fishes. As well as being even home-and-garden-owners (we renovated our house in the past step-by-step) we are practical experienced with any tasks of home repair and garden work. Furthermore Heike has worked in a community vegetable garden a couple of years. Since our memberchip with the housesitters community, we have had lovely engagements in different parts of the world with unique and wonderful pets.
