We are Rocio and Martin, a responsible, caring couple and true animal lovers. We genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and understand that each one has their own unique personality and needs.

favoriteWhy we love house sitting

What we love most about house sitting is the opportunity to create a calm, loving environment for pets while their owners are away.


House sitting also allows us to experience different homes and communities in a meaningful way. We don’t just “stay” in a place — we genuinely care for them.

He has worked as a farm hand in both Uruguay and Australia and has hands-on experience with cattle, sheep, horses, working dogs, poultry, and other farm animals. As a qualified agronomist, he combines practical farming experience with professional knowledge. Rocio has less farming experience but enjoys rural life, is eager to help with daily farm tasks, and is a quick learner. Together, we are reliable, hardworking, and committed to caring for animals and maintaining every property to a high standard.

Martin did a fabulous job of looking after Bianca and our home was immaculate! He communicated with us very regularly and the locals told me he was seen taking Bianca out walking daily. I highly recommend him.

I can't recommend Rocío&Martin enough. These two are superstars. They truly loved our pets, that was visible in the photos. Regular updates that we received made us feel comfortable and reduced our stress about being away. We never had to ask for updates. Communication was above and beyond. Initially we were wondering if this website is a good idea, letting strangers into our home. The concept is great, but you just never know.

Regular updates that we received made us feel comfortable and reduced our stress about being away. We never had to ask for updates. Communication was above and beyond. Initially we were wondering if this website is a good idea, letting strangers into our home. The concept is great, but you just never know. But now we had the best experience, it also taught us that there are still good, reliable, trustworthy, honest people out there. Rocío and Martin were all of this plus much more. They also left the house and the dogs in spectacular condition plus continued with some training. I am so grateful for the experience with them and wish them the very best for their future

Rocio and Martin were wonderful pet and house sitters. They are warm, dependable, and genuinely caring, and they looked after our dogs with outstanding dedication. Throughout our time away, they kept in regular contact, sharing daily updates along with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, the house was immaculate, and they had even gone the extra mile by tidying up the garden after a storm had scattered leaves and branches everywhere. We feel very lucky ...

Rocio and Martin were great dog and house sitters. We were impressed with how clean the house was and everything just as we left it. Our dog Tango is in top condition and happy. The regular updates showing how well Tango was looked after, were a comfort for us while away. We even had an emergency that required we come home at a later date and they were very happy to help us.

Roc and Martin were absolutely sensational House and Pet sitters! They kept us up to date daily about our boy, taking him for walks and showing him love. When we arrived home our house was spotless! We can not thank them enough for the time and effort they showed our home and our doggo Jerry. I would highly recommend them as House/Pet sitters. Lovely people! The only down side was we didn’t get to spend more time with them 🤍 We wish you all the best for the future Roc and Martin!

Rocio & Martin were fantastic, our pup Soup obviously loved them. Obviously she got plenty of walks and cuddles. Great communication with regular updates. Thanks again!
From Aussie House Sitters
Rocio and Martin helped us out on short notice with a three night house sit. They looked after my 30 kg staffy and did so with love and care. They left the house immaculately clean, and consistently sent us pictures and updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask them to housesit again. I would highly recommend them. Thank you Rocio and Martin!!
