Mature digital nomads with vetinary tech experience. 

We are Melissa and Martin in our 40s and we left the US in 2006 for an exciting life less travelled. We have settled in Berlin, Germany. However, our small urban apartment is not well suited for having pets. Since we have digital careers, we are loooking for opportunities to house and pet sit abroad.

I was a vet tech for 4 years before attending university. I know how to recognize emergencies and have experience administering pet first aid.

I had pets from a very young age. In my life I have had the pleasure to call 3 dogs, 4 cats, 2 rabbits, 5 birds and some fish part of my home. I have also fostered a baby squirrel & rescued small wild bird fledglings.

I keep an active lifestyle, enjoy the outdoors, biking, hiking, jogging, yoga, gardening, pottery etc. :)

Together we raised a rescue dog named Shiloh, who had the grace to gift us 14 long years. We originally rescued her in Florida and moved her to Germany. When we would travel back to the US for visits we would need to find a trusted pet sitter. So we know all the concerns that go through the minds of a pet owner when choosing someone to care for your four-legged family member.
