Michelle and Maruan are best house-sitters ever!!!. Maruan has house sat for our farm in Italy numerous times in the past 15 years, as well as volunteered his help in running the farm and hosting our guests. With his green thumb, he was especially helpful in taking care of our gardens and with his open personality he tended mindfully to the needs of our guests. Michelle, who we met later on, also volunteered her help on the farm. Her special gift to us and to our guests was her delcious cooking which nurtured our bellies and our souls. We left our home for them to take care of several times. They took care of our cats, dog, house plants, gardens and the general upkeep of the property with great dedication. They were very respectful to the environment and with their sense of esthetics they have enhanced the beauty of our home. Its always been a joy to come back to a clean and orderly space and spend some extra time with their gentle and open-hearted personalities. I recommend them highly as house sitters.
