German Travel Couple looking for a pet to love

28, HR Specialist

27, Virtual Assistant

Hi :) We are Michelle & Janis, both German, in our late 20s and travelling the world full-time since October 2022.
So far we have been in Asia and Europe and are looking forward to exploring Australia, New Zealand and South America within the next 2 years.
Quitting our jobs and giving up our apartment was the scariest but best decision we did in our life, as we have seen incredible places and met the friendliest people since then!
To finance our travel, we are working as freelance Virtual Assistants and are currently studying Personel&Organisation in a Master's program.
We are a couple since end of 2018 and did our first long-term travel (7 months Bali, Kuala Lumpur & Singapur) in 2019, our love for travelling is definitely mutual.
We love to learn about a country's culture not just from visiting, but also from living like a local.
House and pet sitting creates a perfect opportunity to do so, and if we can take care of a cute animal that we can give love to, that's definitely a plus!
Back in Germany, we both grew up around pets (dog, cats, birds, fish, hamster, mice, turtle). As we cannot bring a pet on such a long journey, we love every interaction we get with animals all over the world.

Michelle and Janis recently completed a house sit for us, and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish, they were very responsive, respectful, and trustworthy. Communication was clear both before and during the house sit, making us feel confident and at ease while we were away. They followed all of our instructions to the letter and even handled a couple of unexpected tasks that arose during their stay. It was evident they were proactive and cared about providing ... MORE

Michelle and Janis were great Housesitters who looked after the animals fantastically and communicated well the whole time. They worked in with my timing- even though it changed slightly and left everything just as they found it. I would be happy to recommend them for any sit.
 
ISABELLE (Gundy NSW, Dec 2024 - 3 nights)
Michelle and Janis did an excellent job looking after our home and 2 dogs and 1 cat for 9 nights in November. We met them prior to the house sit and we knew straight away that they would be great to look after our home. They were friendly and we got along well from the start. Excellent communication while we were away. Our house was clean when we returned and well cared for, no problems at all. We would love Michelle and Janis look after our home and fur family again in future and highly ... MORE

Michelle and Janis are 100% reliable and great communicators. We were so happy receiving pics of our pups whilst away, and the outstanding care our pups received - case in point was that we did not get back home until 10pm so they filled the doggy pool with water and fed them before leaving the house on the last day. This was a very lovely gesture and much appreciated. Additionally, all linen provided was washed, dried and folded, with the house left clean and tidy. I highly recommend them to ... MORE

Michelle & Janis did a fantastic job of looking after our home and fur family, everyone was happy on our return. We really appreciated there efforts and would happily recommend them to other home owners. Great young couple! Thanks very much, Jill & Stuart (Bassendean)
 
STUART (Bassendean WA, May 2024 - 5 nights)
Michelle and Janis are a delightful couple they are absolutely respectful and great communicators. Being considerate to the finer detail they were very obliging, trusted, reliable and easy to get along with. My cat was loved and spoilt and her photos were appreciated :). Unfortunately due to travel plans we were not able to meet before their departure and my return, so it was a lovely surprise to realise all care, including plant care, was upheld to a very high standard. They left my home very ... MORE

Michelle and Janis were fabulous. Their communication was spot on, my pets were happy, clean and fed and the house was neat and tidy on my return. They also folded some towels that were left on the line and fixed some of my cupboard door handles which was amazing!
 
EMMA (Highton VIC, Apr 2024 - 5 nights)
Michelle and Janis were so attentive to the needs of our dog Maggie. They cared for her as if she was their own and Maggie was relaxed and happy on our return . They took care of our other pets and our house was left extremely neat and tidy. Communication with Michelle and Janis was very easy with a mixture of video calls and text messages. Plus they sent us pictures of Maggie as well. If Michelle and Janis return to TAS during their time travelling, I would have no hesitation in ... MORE
 
MICHELLE (Sheffield TAS, Mar 2024 - 3 nights)
Michelle and Janis did a wonderful job looking after our dog. They kept us updated with photos and clear communication, and we came home to a tidy house and a very happy boy. We couldn't ask for more for a short getaway.
