About

Hello!

We are a married couple from Ukraine. We are deeply passionate about nature, an active lifestyle, and animals. Currently, we live in Germany and work for the railway company Metronom. This professional background has taught us a high level of responsibility, iron-clad punctuality, and cleanliness.

We are actively preparing for our next big life adventure — a long-term trekking journey through Europe and the Balkans starting in 2027 with our backpacks and a tent. We are already fully mobile, frequently taking short trips, and are ready to look after your home and pets right now, whether for short weekend getaways or longer stays.

Traveling and being outdoors is amazing, but we always miss the cozy feeling of a home and, most importantly, the company of pets. For us, house sitting is the perfect balance: we get a comfortable place to rest between our hikes, and you get complete peace of mind knowing your home and beloved animals are in safe, caring hands.

Experience with pets & homes

We have a rich and diverse experience with pet care. Back in Ukraine, we were the proud owners of a cat named Max and a very large dog named Sara, a Central Asian Shepherd (Alabai). Raising a giant breed like an Alabai taught us to be confident, patient handlers who deeply understand animal psychology and can easily manage even the biggest and strongest dogs.

Currently, we don't have pets of our own in Germany because our rental apartment has strict no-pet policies, but we always find ways to share our love with animals. In 2022, we stepped in to full-time care for our friends' Chihuahua, a lively and energetic young boy named Baksik, for 2 months while they were staying in temporary housing. Baksik required lots of attention and long, active walks (1–2 hours, 2–3 times a day). We absolutely loved playing with him, keeping up with his high energy, and ensuring he felt happy and safe.

We are highly responsible, clean, and attentive to details. We understand that your home and pets are your world, and you can fully trust us with your keys and routine.
