Why we want to house sit

We like to travel and get to know new people. With our young baby, it feels like a perfect timing to travel and spent some time together in different countries. Creating our project The Love Trail is such a joy for us. We are handing out small cards that make people smile and inspire to leave traces of love everywhere they go. Over 300.000 are traveling around the world in 21 languages. People all over the world contacted us and offered their help. More info on our project: www.facebook.com/thelovetrail

Our experience

Ruben has been a dog owner for 12 years. Both Els and Ruben have a big love for dogs and cats and other animals. Two years experience with cats, birds, dogs, rabbits and fish during our travels. Abel also loves playing with all the animals.

    Ruben, Els and Abel were fantastic house sitters. My fish was well taken care off and when I returned the house was very clean and everything was in its place. They did a fabulous job. Even the neighbors liked them very much ! I can recommend them for house sitting and pet care whilst you are on holiday.

    We loved our stay in Heverlee near Leuven. We had a very nice welcome dinner and an inspiring evening together with Lydia and Richard. Loved being with the amazing cats Jimmy and Jango! The stunning views from the comfy house and very nice forests nearby made our stay even more relaxed. Highly recommend staying at Lydia and Richards home. Also a nice walk around the old Abbey close by which has a lovely organic shop with super nice cookies :-) We love to come back some day. Thank you for having us!

    Ruben, Els and Abel are lovely people and we were very happy to have them in our house. When I met them, I instantly knew that they were the right people in our house. They are warm, open and trustworthy. They took very good care of our animals and kept us updated when necessary. On our return the house was clean and tidy. They even made up our bed so that we could go to sleep right away after we arrived in the evening. Unfortunately we didn't have a lot of time to chat face to face but we are definitely inviting them back for another housesit. We would absolutely recommend them as house- and pet sitters.

    Michael and Sandra are such a warm and lovely couple. We felt very welcome in their house and enjoyed our stay very much since it all felt so quiet and serene in the middle of all the beautiful fields.

    Looking after and feeding the most beautiful and funny rabbits ever was amazing. The rabbits have their own big piece of land on the property
