House sitting in Finland

Are you outdoorsy? House sitting in Finland could be ideal for you if you’re into lake strolls and forest hikes. Or if you’re a history buff, rewind to medieval times in Porvoo and turn your hand to fishing.

Visit Suomenlinna Fortress

One of the best parts about house sitting in Finland is getting to explore all the amazing history and landmarks the country has to offer. And there's nowhere more historic than Suomenlinna Fortress. Suomenlinna is a popular tourist spot, and it's easy to see why. The views from the fortress walls are simply breathtaking, and there's something really cool about walking around in a place that's steeped in so much history. Dogs aren’t allowed inside the museum building and around the lake area but can explore all other spaces.

Explore Rauma town

Finland has a seriously rich history - Rauma town was founded in 1444! Hop on a walking tour, dabble with uuniperuna (iconic baked potatoes), and stop by the Church of the Holy Cross or Rauma Maritime Museum. 

Go lake hopping

For the perfect day out with your new pooch pal, be sure to explore Finland’s lakes. And you won’t be short of lakes to choose from - there are THOUSANDS. While lake hopping might sound a little daunting, it’s actually a popular summer activity with tourists and locals alike. 

Visit Helsinki

Head out for walkies in Helsinki’s Central Park and let your new fluffy pal scout, sniff and scamper about to their heart’s content. If you fancy getting out of the city, head off to one of the local beaches with your new buddy for some fun in the sun.
