Since it's our first time using TrustedHousesitters, Alves was definitely a good sitter to start with. He helped us figure out some things how to organise

Alves Rosa ficou na minha casa enquanto eu viajava para visitar minha família por uma semana. Na época tinha 5 gatos e 2 cachorros com necessidades diferentes, principalmente em questão de alimentação. Ele cuidou super bem dos animais e também em tomar conta da casa, me reportando se houvesse algum problema. Inclusive naquela época estava tendo muita tempestade e um dos meus vidros de uma janela estourou (moro em uma área de mata e é bem comum pedras ou galhos voarem em tempestade). Ele ajudou limpando e providenciando um substituto para a janela até a minha volta. Muito confiável e prestativo, recomendo muito ele como sitter. Alves Rosa has stayed at my house while I was travelling to visit my family for a week. At that time I had 5 cats and 2 dogs with different needs, specially in matter of feeding. He took very good care of my pets and the house, reporting me if any trouble. Inclusive at that time of the year we have a lot of trouble with storms and one of the window's glasses shattered ( I live in a forest area and it's very common rocks and branches practically fly away). He helped cleaning it up and providing for a substitute for the window until my return. Very trustful and helpful, I super recommend him as a sitter.

Why we want to house sit

I believe that housesitting is a perfect solution because it combines 2 of my great passions, animals and traveling. As a backpacker and a poet/writer, for me this is a perfect combination, where I can see new places, meet new people and
