About

Hi! I’m Catalina, a responsible, organized and caring house sitter who genuinely enjoys creating a calm, safe environment for pets and homes.

House sitting fits naturally into my lifestyle because I value slow travel, comfortable home routines and spending quality time with animals. I’m reliable, respectful and attentive to the little details that help owners feel completely at ease while they’re away.

I have hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, fish and horses, as well as many different types of plants. I understand that every pet has its own personality, habits and routine, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel safe, comfortable and happy while their family is away.

I’m very comfortable following detailed feeding, walking, cleaning and care instructions, and I always make sure pets receive not only the practical care they need, but also attention, affection and company.

I’m naturally tidy and organized, and I treat every home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show my own. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are happy and your home is being well looked after.

For me, a successful house sit means you return to relaxed, well-cared-for pets, a clean and tidy home, and complete peace of mind knowing everything was in safe hands.

Experience with pets & homes

I have hands-on house and pet sitting experience across several European countries, including Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy and France. Over time, homeowners have trusted me with their homes, keys, pets and daily routines while they were away.

I’ve cared for cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, horses and many different types of plants. My experience includes looking after multiple pets at once, following individual feeding and cleaning routines, caring for animals with specific needs, keeping homes tidy and secure, and making sure everything runs smoothly until the owners return.

Some of my previous sits include caring for three cats and a small pet in Switzerland, three cats in Cologne, several house sits with cats and dogs across the Netherlands, pet sits in Belgium and Rome, and a stay in the French Alps caring for two Labradors and a horse.

I’m very comfortable being responsible for someone else’s home independently. I carefully follow written instructions, respect house rules, keep spaces clean and organized, check that doors and windows are secure, water plants as requested, and communicate promptly if anything unusual comes up.

I also understand that pets can behave differently when their family is away, so I pay attention to their normal habits and make sure they receive the right balance of routine, companionship, affection and space.

Homeowners can expect regular updates and photos if they wish, and my goal is always the same: for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe and comfortable, and to return to a clean, peaceful home that has been cared for with respect.
