  • Description

    Hi there! My name is Marianne and I am an enthusiastic traveler who likes to travel through Europe in a campervan. In May this year I quit my job as a project manager and started traveling full time.

    I am passionate about discovering new cultures, tasting local food and exploring beautiful landscapes. But more importantly, I can also take care of your home and beloved pets while you travel yourself!

    When it comes to housesitting, you can count on me. I am responsible, reliable and I understand the importance of making sure your home and animals are safe and well cared for. I am available from November 2023 untill May 2024.

    Animals have always been a great love of mine. I have experience taking care of a variety of pets including dogs, cats, chickens and many more. I'm good at giving them attention, cuddles, and playtime, and making them feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. With me as a sitter, you don't have to worry about your small pets, because your loyal companions will be in good hands.

    In addition to looking after your house and animals, I am also a tidying expert to help people to organize their home. I like to keep spaces neat and organized. And if you want, you can relax in a tidy house when you return. Whether it's organizing closets, organizing paperwork (administration) or creating an efficient layout, I make sure everything is in its place and looks neat. But of course I can also leave everything as it is, no problem.

    I also offer home styling services for the sale of your home. If you are planning to market your home, I can help you make it as attractive as possible to potential buyers. I can give you advice on optimizing the layout, decorating spaces and creating an inviting atmosphere that will arouse the interest of buyers.

    I also understand the importance of keeping the house neat and tidy during viewings. Potential buyers want to see a clean and organized home so they can imagine what it would be like to live there. I make sure that everything is in its place, that the rooms are clean and that any mess is cleared away. That way, you can leave with peace of mind, knowing that your home will look its best for every viewing.

    Let me tell you about the beautiful home I recently got to style and care for in Hokerum, southern Sweden for 1.5 months! This house is really a gem that I have taken care of with great enthusiasm (see photos).

    First of all styling the house for sale. I used my creative skills and eye for detail to make the home look its best. I optimized the spaces by using smart layouts and choosing the right furniture that emphasizes the strengths of the house. By adding (the available) stylish accessories and creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, I made sure that potential buyers feel right at home as soon as they enter.

    In addition to styling the house, I also enjoyed arranging viewings for potential buyers. I love showing people around and showing them how amazing this house is. I am good at presenting the unique features and highlights of the home and I can enthuse the potential buyers with my passion for the home. My goal is to provide them with an unforgettable experience during the viewing, so that they can really imagine what it would be like to live in this beautiful home.
    In addition to the interior, I also spent a lot of time maintaining the garden. The house in Hokerum has a beautiful outdoor space that is just as attractive as the interior. I've taken care of the garden, maintained the flowers and plants, and made sure everything looks fresh and inviting. Potential buyers will immediately fall in love with the beautiful garden and the peaceful, green landscape surrounding the house.

    And last but not least, the animals. I have taken care of the animals that belong to this house with love and dedication. Whether it's feeding the pets or taking care of the backyard chickens, I made sure they were always well cared for and given lots of love and attention. It is important to me that the animals feel happy and comfortable.

    In short, the house in Hökerum is a true paradise that I enjoyed styling, showing around, maintaining the garden and caring for the animals. It has been a fantastic experience working on such a beautiful property and I am confident that the new owner will fall in love with it as much as I did.

    Whether you're traveling, organizing your home, looking after your pets or preparing your home for sale, I'm here to help. Let me take away your worries so you can enjoy your trip or focus on other important things. Feel free to contact me for further questions.

    From 15 December 2023 untill 15 March 2024 I will be looking for a parttime job in a ski resort, hotel, appartements or chalets. For a (private) room, meals on working days and a ski pass I will work 25 hours per week for free. Check out my skills below!
