Upcoming destinations: Croatia.
Let me take care of your house and pets!

Did you know I am an experienced house - and petsitter? I grew up with many pets around me... and for me the hardest part of a full-time travelling lifestyle is not being able to take care of one. This is something I can luckily compensate with by house- and petsitting my way around the globe! To have a lovely temporary pet in a new country to explore, how amazing is that?

Do you have a holiday coming up and wonder who could look after your 4-legged friend with the same amount of love and attention as you give him/her every day? Look no further! I will look after your house and pets like they were my own! Contact me today to arrange this 100% free exchange.

Stephanie in 20 seconds:
 
  • Dutch world citizen (35y).
  • 'Digital nomad'/ Writer / Travelblogger. I work from home and therefore will be there to accompany your pet during the day: (s)he will never go lonely! Plus, I will promote your home town as a travel destination. 
  • Animal friend - the more the merrier: I’ve had pets my entire life. Your pet will receive a lot of attention and endless cuddles. I'm experienced with looking after dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, and birds /chickens.
  • Reliable, independent and tidy. I will keep your living space clean and organized.
  • Non-smoker.
  • Driver’s license.
  • Nature lover and devoted hiker. If you have a dog, (s)he will of course come with me on all walks. 
  • Passions: Traveling, writing, reading, skiing, theatre, art.


​References

I completed numerous housesits via Kiwi Housesitters, Trusted Housesitters and online platforms. References and direct contacts with houseowners can be provided upon request.


5-stars: "Stephanie took very good care of our cat Kara. We talked over Skype beforehand and we met her before the sit. We kept in touch via Whatsapp during our time away. Kara immediately got used to her. The house was spotless when we came back and Kara seemed to have received plenty of love. We recommend her to anyone who is looking for a kind, experienced and clean person to take care of their pets." [Marisa & Jeremy]

​5-stars: "Stephanie did a wonderful job taking care of my pet and home. She met with me ahead of time to outline expectations and how-to's, and she communicated consistently with me while I was away. She took good care of my home and left it clean and tidy. Stephanie is a caring and respectful house/pet-sitter. I would have her back anytime to do it again! Great job!" [Nancy]
