  Descrição

  About us
  “We are Günseli (fashion designer) and Burak (cinematographer). Together, we run a vegan fashion line inspired by Mediterranean wildflowers, as well as our design and film studio. We work in a hybrid way — about 50% from home and 50% outside in meetings. We recently moved to Fenerbahçe, Istanbul.”
  
  Why we need help
  Because of our design and film projects, we are often busy with studio work. We are looking for people with genuine animal experience who can take full responsibility for our pets, whether we are at home or away. This is not “just a job.” Our animals need love, compassion, and attention — not only safe and careful care, but also joy and warmth.
  
  Tasks required from travelers
  Animal care
  Walk 4 dogs three times a day (in two groups)
  Prepare and cook meals for the animals:
  • Dogs — meat or chicken with ric and vegetables, twice daily
  • Cats — fresh dry food and water in the morning and evening,Clean cat litter twice daily
  Observe health and behavior
  _House care
  Daily light cleaning and keeping the home tidy. We enjoy a clean and positive environment at home.
  _Help around the house
  
  Food
  _We like to keep things simple and friendly. The fridge is always stocked, and everyone can cook whenever they want. Sometimes we cook and eat together, sometimes each person makes their own meal.”
  
  Schedule ( general idea)
  Morning shift: 08:30 – 11:00
  Evening shift: 17:30_19:30
  A short walk in between for their needs around 14:30
  
  The rest of the day is free, but always keep an eye and ear open for the animals. They enjoy hugs, cuddles, and little snacks — and like simply being around people, whether you’re working, cooking, or reading.
  
  Be aware of / Challenges
  Living with many animals: 4 dogs and 5 cats can feel intense at first — we need calm, confident people.
  Daily rhythm: Dog walking, cats attention and food preparation are essential parts of life here.
  
  What we offer
  -A peaceful house and a separate room in Istanbul, close to the Fenerbahçe Marina
  -High-speed internet, suitable for people who also work from home
  -A city full of history and cultural experiences
  -Shared meals, friendship, and good memories when we are home
  -Food expenses are covered
  
  Important note
  This is not just a task list — we are looking for people who truly love animals, see them as family, and bring warmth and joy into the house. We will consider you part of our family. For us, it’s about respect, compassion, and the joy of meeting beautiful people while sharing the chance and responsibility of caring for these wonderful souls together.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  Me and my boyfriend are very open to different cultures and believe that we can learn from each other while enjoying our friendship. We just moved to Istanbul from Bodrum where we used to live for 5 years. We would be happy to spend time together and exchange ideas. We are the home of a human-animal family. I think our guests will experience a beautiful harmony between humans and animals where they can be exactly friends. Rather than an owner-animal relationship, we have a family-friend type of loving and fun relationship that needs to be experienced.

  Ajuda

  We are a designer–cinematographer couple in Istanbul living with 4 dogs and 5 cats, all adopted. We also have a second house where we have 3 dogs. Workawayer guest can help in one of the houses. Tasks: cooking and feeding animals , dog walks (in 2 groups), daily cleaning, general house works, and light gardening. A house close to sea, high-speed internet, all food and house expenses covered.
  
  We are looking for nice people who have an understanding of animal nature, have experience with dogs, and feel comfortable with them. It is important to take care of them and realise quickly if any of the cats are missing or have a health problem. We always keep an eye on them and are in close contact.

  We have high-speed internet. Between the morning and evening care sessions, digital nomads can focus on their own work in a calm environment with a good climate — always keeping an eye and ear open to the animals.

  Pode aceitar animais

  Because we already live with 4 dogs and 5 cats, bringing another animal can sometimes create challenges in harmony. For this reason, it’s not our first choice. But if you have a very calm and well-socialized pet, we can discuss the possibility together.
