favoriteWhy we love house sitting

We love creating a win-win connection: giving owners peace of mind while enjoying the comfort of a home. Missing our own pets back in Spain, house sitting lets us share that love with other animals, making us feel right at home while traveling at a relaxed pace.

Hi! We are Laura and Tono, a couple from Spain. We are 32 and 30 years old. Laura is an online psychologist and Tono is a computer engineer. We got married in March 2026 and decided to take a exciting new direction in life by taking a peaceful, year-long trip across Australia. Our visas are already approved, and we can’t wait to start this adventure!

We are quiet people who need our own spaces to work remotely, so housesitting—having a place to care for and call home for a few weeks—feels like the perfect fit for us.
We have always lived surrounded by dogs and cats, and we have experience caring for pets going through health issues or illnesses. We are vegetarian and deeply committed to animal welfare.
For us, it would be a real privilege to care for homes and pets (especially dogs and cats, which are our specialty) during different stages of our journey.

For this one-year trip, leaving them behind is honestly going to break my heart, though I know they’ll be in great hands since my brother will be living at my place and looking after them. I’ve also dog-sat for my friend Cova many times, and Tono and I have frequently cared for his brother’s dog
Tono: I’ve been volunteering at an animal shelter since 2017, taking care of the dogshandling their daily needs, feeding, administering medication, and more. I’ve also been a foster parent for dogs for many years.
On top of that, I’ve been living with cats since 2025
I have extensive experience in animal care, and I naturally get along great with them

travelTravel plans

Hi! We are a couple holding a one-year visa to visit Australia. Our plan is to travel around doing housesitting and spend a few months in each city.
We prefer relatively long stays because we want to take our time and enjoy this trip at a peaceful pace.
We are a very quiet couple who work remotely.

Happy pets!
