We are a Gil and Alicia; originally from Oregon, USA. We are two mid-age professionals who have been working remotely from our laptops for the last year as we traveled.
We are in the Seattle area from October 2018 on and are open to housesits of all durations.
We are inquisitive and enjoy exploring the world around us. We have both lived in other countries for extended periods of time and are bilingual. Additionally we have been homeowners and understand all it takes to maintain and care for a home.
If you need a trustworthy and competent couple to care for your home and pets, we are available! We are happy to love your animals while you are gone and take care of your plants and garden.
We have excellent references. We are honest, hard-working, and happy people-
Why we want to house sit
We love to travel and are able to do so whenever we are inclined. House sitting is a great way to see the world and connect with locals. We also enjoy the spirit of exchange and contribution that we experience housesitting. In 2017 we were fortunate enough to live in Oregon and Costa Rica and took trips to Hawaii, Panama and Aruba! This year we have house and pet sat in Oregon, Panama, Costa Rica, Miami, Paris, London, and now, Seattle, Washington.
We have made many good friends (human and animals alike) along the way and we look forward to meeting you and yours.
Currently seeking Long term sits in the Seattle area HOWEVER we are available for shorter sits - just check our availability calendar. :)
Our experience
Alicia grew up on a farm where there were horses, cows, sheep, goats, pigs, dogs, cats, rabbits, and bees. Gil spent the first ten years of his life in the countryside of Baja, California, then moved to Oregon where he has had dogs.
We have both been home owners and understand the responsibility. In the last year, we have house / pet sat at over seven homes.
We are respectful of your home and animals, we will "tread" lightly and maintain your pet's routines while giving them lots of love.

Alicia & Gilbert were wonderful. Our house was as clean or cleaner when we returned than it was before we left. They took great care of our two senior kitties, and they were communicative so I never had to worry. It was stress free and we would totally ask them to sit for us again. Thanks, guys!
