Hi, I am Wiebke and would love to take care of your home and garden - and your pets of course!
About Wiebke
Wiebke (pronounced Veeb-ka) means sunshine in an old Germanic language. I do my best to live up to my name.
After studying voice and economics (I know: what a combination!) I worked world-wide as an artists manager. I also held positions as Head of Marketing in a technology company and worked in the field of Executive Search. I recently joined...
Wiebke (pronounced Veeb-ka) means sunshine in an old Germanic language. I do my best to live up to my name.
After studying voice and economics (I know: what a combination!) I worked world-wide as an artists manager. I also held positions as Head of Marketing in a technology company and worked in the field of Executive Search. I recently joined my friend Boris to work on a start-up company. Since our office is virtual, we have the privilege to work from wherever in the world, as long as we have wifi. Boris and I travel together and therefore we are in two to take care of your home and pets.
I am more or less fluent in 4 languages (German, English, Italian and French) and speak a couple more with the help of my hands and feet (Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch).
I am a proud mother of three wonderful grown-up children living in New York, Los Angeles and London. I love music, any kind of music, but classical just a little bit more. Besides travelling I love reading, long walks and gardening. Needless to say that I love animals.
Why I want to house sit
I simply love to travel and experience places and countries as if I lived there. Since I love pets and taking care of plants and a garden, house-sitting is an ideal opportunity.
My experience
Before my husband got sick and passed away I owned several properties in Italy and the South of France and had great pleasure in taking care of them myself. When I sold the homes the most difficult thing always was to say goodbye to the trees and rose bushes I had. Luckily friends and family frequently call me to take care of their homes and pets which gives me the wonderful opportunity to get my hands dirty in their gardens :-) .

We have used this site on numerous occasions , always with success. However, right at the top are Weibke and Boris. Selecting them from our short list was easy with Weibke's excellently presented descriptions and pictures, rapidly confirmed by a positive video call. they were flexible and helpful in fitting in with our dates.
Contact with them while we were away was super with almost daily pictures, reports etc. Highly appropriate and amusing. They dealt with a couple of emergencies with our creatures brilliantly.
A warm welcome on our return with happy dogs and cats and an immaculate house. Certainly 5 stars deserved, Don't hesitate to choose Weibke.
Thank you Weibke and Boris. We hope to see you back ( as does Eliott!)- Organised

Firstly my apologies Wiebke for delay in reviewing you but as you know due to my ill health first day back at computer now. Well not only did we have daily updates, photographs, videos we felt like we hadn't left the dogs at all and could see by photos, they were well and truly happy so therefore not worried at all. Dogs well and truly miserable on her day of leaving. House immaculate on our return, dogs had more exercise than they do with us, sad to see both of them go. I have no explanation for it but when I saw Wiebke I just knew it had to be her. Only afterwards I have read her fantastic reviews and see what a highly intelligent lady she is. My only massive worry now is she'll be too busy with other bookings to come back. Thank you again you are a very special lady x

Thanks so much for your kind words, Rachel! Hope you will soon be back on top of the world, and don’t worry: time permitting, we would love to see Hugo and Max (as well as Adam and you) again! Take care!

Wiebke was one of the best sitters we have had.
It was a delightful surprise to meet her and boris and we left for our holiday completely assured that all would be fine.

We came back to very content cats and a lovely meal.
Our only hope is that they will return and we could not recommend them highly enough.- Organised
