As a family
We’re a couple in our late thirties. We welcomed our son Quinn into the world in June 2022. We’re avid travelers, even having a young son, and above all language enthusiasts. I grew up in the countryside in northern Nevada, USA and Isabel grew up in the city in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Quinn was born in Alsace, France. We both grew up around animals and love the energy and warmth they bring with their presence. I was fortunate enough to have grown up with three dogs, a Springer Spaniel, a Husky and an American Staffordshire Terrier as well as two cats and an Iguana. I was formerly a Coordinator of Graduate Admissions at Missouri State University (MSU) and Isabel was an English Instructor at MSU. I was a language assistant at a Lycée and Collège in Rochefort, France. After traveling around France for two years, we've settled in Alsace near the German border. We have years of experience on AirBnB where we’ve stayed in others’ homes with and without them. My AirBnB profile can be found here: https://www.airbnb.co.uk/users/show/15602694 and Isabel's AirBnB profile is here: https://www.airbnb.com/users/show/29436653
Nous sommes un couple dans la trentaine. Nous sommes des voyageurs passionnés et des passionnés de langues. J'ai grandi dans la campagne du nord du Nevada, aux États-Unis, et Isabel a grandi dans la ville de Belo Horizonte, au Brésil. Nous avons tous deux grandi autour des animaux et aimons l'énergie et la chaleur qu'ils apportent avec leur présence. J'ai eu la chance de grandir avec trois chiens, un Springer Spaniel, un Husky et un Staffordshire Terrier américain, ainsi que deux chats et un iguane. Auparavant, j'étais coordinateur des admissions aux études supérieures à la Missouri State University (MSU) et Isabel était professeure d'anglais à la MSU. Nous avons demenagé en France où j'étais assistant linguistique dans un lycée professionnel et deux collège à Rochefort, en France pendant sept mois. Maintenant, nous habitons en Alsace, proche à la frontier allemand. Nous sommes plutôt nouveaux dans le monde de "pet sitting", mais nous avons des années d’expérience sur AirBnB, où nous sommes restés chez d’autres personnes avec ou sans eux.

Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany - April 2024
We want to thank Michael and Isabel for taking such good care of our two cats and our home. We received updates regularly and when we came back, our cats were happy and the flat clean. We had a good feeling with them from the start, communication was easy and friendly. We can recommend them wholeheartedly as house and pet sitters and wish them all the best!
Knoxville, United States - January 2024
Michael and Isabel were excellent hosts, providing detailed information on navigating Strasbourg's trams and buses. Their comfortable apartment, located near a beautiful park and equestrian park, made our stay enjoyable and convenient. Highly recommended for a pleasant house-sitting experience. In addition to their helpful transit tips, Michael and Isabel offered fantastic restaurant recommendations and shared online resources for exciting day trips in the Alsace area. Their thoughtful guidance enhanced our stay, making it a well-rounded and memorable experience. Not only did Michael and Isabel provide valuable information, but their apartment was also impeccably clean and exceptionally comfortable. The combination of a welcoming space and thoughtful hosts made our house-sitting experience truly enjoyable.
Adligenswil, Switzerland - August 2023
Für uns war es das erste Mal, dass wir ein Housesitting in Anspruch nahmen und wir sind absolut begeistert. Mike und Isabel haben unsere Wohnung, unsere Haustiere und den Garten sehr gut betreut und gepflegt. Fast täglich sandten sie uns ein kurzes Whatsapp mit einem Foto von unserer Katze oder von den besuchten Ausflugszielen in der Schweiz. Zusammen mit ihrem Sohn genossen sie die Wohnung, den Garten und entdeckten die Umgebung. Abwechslungsweise gönnten sich die Eltern einen Tagausflug allein und entdeckten die schönsten Wanderrouten der Schweiz. Mike und Isabel sind sehr kommunikativ, sehr rücksichtsvoll und absolut zuverlässig. Da wir zwischendurch einige Tage gemeinsam im Haus verbrachten, entwickelte sich eine vertrauensvolle und freundschaftliche Beziehung. Wir danken Mike und Isabel herzlich für ihre Dienste während unserer Abwesenheit und für das grosszügige Bestücken des Kühlschranks vor unserer Rückkehr. Mike und Isabel sind wunderbare Housesitter, wie man sich nur wünschen kann.
Cumbernauld, United Kingdom - June 2023
We thoroughly enjoyed our house sit in Strasbourg for Michael and Isabel. They are a super friendly couple who both immediately made us feel at home in their apartment. They are really well informed about their local area of Strasbourg and the Alsace Region. Michael provided us with all the maps and guidance we needed and they even came with us to make sure we bought the right tickets for the tram service. The apartment is very comfortable, secure and well situated for both the local tram and bus services. The adjacent park was a great bonus in a city !
