We are a Swiss Couple, living since 9 years on our old dutch barge converted to a houseboat and travel with it during the summer months through Europe. In winter we try to find an interesting place to stay, either on our ship or in a small apartement on land. Travelling at really slow speed, but experience local life, that's what we think is the true spirit of our lifestyle.
We still have a house with a big garden in Switzerland that is rented out, but at the moment we love to travel a lot to see the world off the tourist tracks. We have visited all continents of the earth, about 100 countries in all.
We speak Swiss German, German, French, English (all of them fluently) and some Italian.
We are non-smokers and no party people.
Why we want to house sit
We love to travel, but on a slow pace. That means staying at one place for a longer time, even for 1 or 2 months, to really experience the living there, not only tourist-rushing-through.
House sitting gives us the chance to see new places, meet great people and taking good care of their loved animals and their home as they would be ours.
Our experience
I always had cats (true cat person) and our beloved dog (a Hovawart) lived with us (my husband and I) for 14 years.
And we cared for the birds (20 Loris) of our neighbour when they went for their house in Italy. We know how a truly loved pet is a part of the family and we want to give yours that attention and care, too!
Our house has (for Switzerland) a quite big garden with a pond. So, taking care of a garden is no problem at all. The house is rented to a young couple, as we travel a lot to see as much of the world as we can.
You can be sure that we will treat your pets and your home as if they were ours!

Thank you Matz and Hansruedi for taking such great care of our cats and our house. We couldn't have asked for better house sitters, they were even gracious enough to let workers in the flat at 7:30.

Thank you Matz and Hansruedi for taking such great care of our cats and our house. We couldn't have asked for better house sitters, they were even gracious enough to let workers in the flat at 7:30. The cats were very happy when we got home, always a sign they were well loved, we got pictures when we were away and the house was just as we had left it. I highly recommend Matz and Hansruedi as house sitters, and there is a bonus of learning about their amazing journey around Europe on their 'home'/barge.
