About Laura
We started house sitting together full time in 2013. We flew from the UK to Australia and did back to back house sits for nine months. We mainly looked after dogs but did care for a few cats too.

We started house sitting together full time in 2013. We flew from the UK to Australia and did back to back house sits for nine months. We mainly looked after dogs but did care for a few cats too.
Then we came back to Europe and have so far house sat in the UK, Spain, Germany, Italy, Finland, the Netherlands, Greece and Portugal. Again we have mainly pet sat dogs and a few cats, but have also expanded our resumes and looked after chickens, ducks, sheep, horses and donkeys too.
As you can see by our references, all our sits have gone really well. We've fallen in love with every animal we've cared for!
I am a British mathematics graduate and my partner Tanbay is a German entrepreneur. We now both work as digital nomads: we are social media influencers, bloggers and writers. We are both non smokers and very active - Tanbay enjoys working out at the gym and I have a black belt in kickboxing. We both love yoga.
Whilst we are a young couple, we are very mature, responsible, clean and tidy and have been together for eleven years. We can both provide police checks and excellent references.
We are also more than happy to Skype/FaceTime with you both before and during the house sit.
Why I want to house sit
We have found that house sitting is a mutually beneficial experience. We love animals, travelling and helping out others. We believe that pets are always much happier and more comfortable in their own homes.
My experience
So far we have cared for:
A family cat
A family Greyhound
Australia:
Two boisterous Tom cats
A blind Jack Russell
A Samoyed and a Chow Chow who needed daily brushing and grooming
Two very active dogs: a Kelpie Doberman Cross and an English Pointer
An extremely shy cat and a few goldfish
A Kelpie German Shepherd Cross
A return house sit to the Samoyed and Chow
A Boxer and a German Shepherd
A Japanese Spitz
UK:
A Miniature Dachshund
Two cats and three sheep
A handful of chickens and ducks, two Labradors and one horse
One Belgium Shepherd, one cat and four guinea pigs
A Border Collie
A shy Tomcat
Two Hungarian Vizslas
Germany:
Family British Bulldog
Assisted with our family's horses and donkeys in Germany
Two chickens in Berlin
Spain:
Two Spanish Water Dogs and a Yorkie
Italy:
One Jack Russell Chihuahua mix
One Hound mix
One cat
- we've returned to this house sit four times
Finland:
A medium sized mixed breed dog
Portugal:
One large mixed breed dog
One turtle
- we've returned to this house sit twice
Holland:
German Shepherd and Weimaraner
Greece:
One American Cocker Spaniel
One Kitten
As you can see our experience is very broad, with each house sit providing us with a new challenge. We believe that we have performed outstandingly, which is confirmed by our references. (See below). We have also been asked to return to all of our sits and like to do so (if we're in the right country)!
Future:
We are currently looking to house sit in parts of Asia, North America or Peru

Laura and Tanbay made a tremendous job. We have a lot of pets ( dogs, cats, reptiles, fish) and they managed it perfectly. We even have the feeling the dogs miss them, because Laura and Tanbay obviously spend more time with them, than we do. All neighbors asked us about the "nice couple".
Finally we really hope they will sit our house again - it was a very relaxing time for us, knowing everything is in line at home. We can definitely recommend them !!- Organised

Laura and Tanbay looked after our 2 Hungarian Vizslas whilst we were away at the time of the Rio Olympics and we returned to healthy, happy and fit dogs who had enjoyed their own Olympics in our garden, and it seems both of them won gold medals! The dogs had obviously been well walked and cared for, and had obviously had a lot of attention given to them. In addition the kitchen was absolutely spotless and the bed linen had been changed. Perfect sitters in every way and we would be delighted to have them again, anytime.
