Description

Hello dear hosts,

LOOKING FOR HOUSE SITTING IN ITALY

My last job has been taking care of a house in Lourinha, Portugal for a couple of months. It was a wonderful experience that made me realise that house-sitting is my way now of seeing other parts of the world. I love it!

Your house will be well taken care of with loving attention and joy. Your home will be well looked after, the house will be clean and tidy, the plants and garden will flourish, and the cats will be in good hands. Accommodating guests or caring for an elderly person can be discussed.

I am a 71-year-young woman of Dutch nationality, living a healthy life, full of energy to look after your property. This year I explored the Portugese west coast. This autumn/winter, I hope to visit a location in the coastal regions or the south of Italy, or Sicily and Sardinia.
So please contact me if you need a house sitter.

I don’t speak a word of Italian yet, but as it’s the most beautiful language on earth, I might learn it quickly.

Looking forward to meeting you.
Kind regards, Monique

Anir was looking for someone to look after her house for just under four months. What a beautiful setting and what a view from the house, including many colourful sunsets. The house is nestled against the hillside in a traditional rural village where everyone is so friendly. During that time, I built a whole new life for myself, filled with … read more

Monique is a really lovely house-sitter! She maintained my house, looked after the garden and pot plants from the beginning of March until mid-June – a period of 3½ months. That’s quite a long time. Fortunately, everything was in good hands with her. Of course we kept in touch; the post was forwarded via photo messages, which was rather fine. … read more
