A bit about us....
Flore (40)- Mum- I am French and grew up as an expat child in Africa with many dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens and the occasional rat! Having lived the last few years in flats across Europe, I am finding it difficult to not be able to give my daughter this abundance of pets. So looking after your pets is my favourite part of housesitting!
I am an Ayurvedic doctor and lecturer and work mainly online with consultations and workshops. I am passionate about healing and bringing more joy to people. I am also a yoga teacher.
Petur (40)- Dad- As a child, I mainly had fish and hamsters but spent a lot of time playing and caring for my neighbours' dogs and cats, and working on farms with sheep, cows, chickens, geese, pigs and rabbits over the summers.
As an Icelander, I am an avid hiker and a lover of nature. I will happily take your dogs for long walks!
I am a sustainability management consultant and lecturer. I have my own business and work online. I am also a yoga and meditation teacher.
Loa (10)- Daughter!- I love animals and have owned 2 gerbils called Anna and Elsa, and often look after my grandfather's cats and my friend's dogs. I love horse riding. When I stop travelling and have a home, I want to have 2 dogs and a cat. I also usually rescue spiders and other insects that scare my Mum, and restore them to the garden! I am very gentle and soft with animals.
I am homeschooling with my Mum and Dad whilst we travel around the world.
Why we want to house sit
We love travelling the world, and unfortunately cannot have pets for now. Housesitting means we can be with animals and love them!
It also means living in a homely environment, which gives us the opportunity to experience a place from a local perspective, living life as a local rather than a tourist.
For us, it is really a priviledge to be entrusted with your precious house and pets. We know the importance of feeling secure about your home and animals whilst you are away. We will love taking care of them!
Our experience
There are so many reasons why we consider ourselves to be great house and pet sitters!
1) We have owned a few homes, and know what it takes to keep a house clean and tidy, and cared for. We will look after your home as if it was our own, maintaining it in a beautiful condition.
2) We love animals and have a lot of experience between the 3 of us! We have owned and looked after dogs, cats, rats, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, chickens, parrot, and other farm animals! Some were tiny babies, some were cheeky youngs, some were old and dying.
We will ensure that your animals are happy, loved and cared for. Most of all, we will follow their regular routine and lifestyle.
3) We will keep excellent communication- as we run online businesses, we are often online. We will keep in touch and update you regularly with photos and videos.
4) As a family with location independent business, we work from wherever we are at the moment. This means that when we are in your home, we will be fully present and attentive there. We do not have to go "home" for anything. Your home and pets will be our home and pets for that time, and we will love them as such.
5) As business owners, we are self sufficient, organised and reliable. We are resourceful and used to dealing with emergencies. We know how to follow instructions and as client-focused businesses, we are used to catering to clients' needs.
6) Having been homeowners in different countries and continents, especially as expats, we have had housesitters to care for our home and pets. We know how you feel, leaving your home for travelling.

Hands down best and nicest pet and house sitter ever! I could not have hoped for someone better than Flore and her family to take care of my cats and home. They kept me updated with photos and funny stories about what my cats have been up to and took great care of them, playing and cuddling with them a lot. They were unbelievably considerate, doing everything to make my return home as easy and comfortable as possible. The place was super clean, laundry was done and they even bought some food for me. I really hope they will want to come to Bali again to sit my boys again. Thank you so so much!

Flore, Petur and their lovely daughter Loa were absolutely amazing! They are genuinely caring people who have the biggest hearts. I had absolutely no worries leaving our 2 dogs and turtle with them for 2 months while we were away. Flore sent me updates constantly so I knew my home and animals were in good hands. Flore had no issues and was confident in giving our senior dog her daily medications. Not long after we left, the filter for the turtle tank stopped working. Flore and Petur contacted us and we arranged for a new one to be delivered. They installed it with out hesitation or problems. We came home to very happy doggies and and a very clean house, plus my plants were much healthier than when I left. Flore even had some dinner cooked for us when we arrived after 30 hours of travel and also had prepared some meals in the freezer for us, so we wouldn't have to worry about preparing food for a few days while recovering from jet leg! I would highly recommend Flore and her family to pet/house sit, you won't regret it! I would love for them to come back, anytime! My only disappointment was we didn't get to spend more time with them! They truly are lovely people and will care for your home/pets like their own.

Flore has house/cat sitted for us a few times when we have gone abroad on our travels. When returning home the cats have always been very happy and the house tidy and clean. I highly recommend Flore.
