About this sitter
Bernard 73 ans directeur commercial en informatique retraité, Monique 70 ans professeur des écoles retraitée. Nous sommes en couple depuis 31 ans maintenant. Nous habitons en France, la proche banlieue toulousaine. Nous sommes sérieux et dynamiques. Nous aimons les voyages, la lecture, les balades.
En dehors de nos voyages, nous occupons notre retraite en essayant de nous rendre utiles. Bernard donne bénévolement des cours d'informatique à l'Amicale Loisirs et culture de notre petite ville et fait partie du club de randonnée. Pour ma part, je suis bénévole dans une Association intermédiaire d'aide au retour à l'emploi. Conjointement nous gérons le site informatique d'un club de football.
Why they want to house sit
Le gardiennage est un moyen pour nous de voyager et de visiter des régions et des pays que nous ne connaissons pas tout en nous rendant utiles.
Their experience
Nous avons de l'expérience dans le home-sitting, des gardiennages en France (y compris Martinique, Guadeloupe, Réunion, Nouvelle-Calédonie), en Belgique, Angleterre, Espagne, Italie, Portugal, Irlande, Suisse, Thaïlande, Etats-Unis, Mexique, Canada et République Dominicaine et nous sommes toujours revenus enchantés de nos escapades qui nous ont permis de visiter de belles régions et de garder des animaux très attachants. Nous avons également fait de belles connaissances humaines avec la rencontre de nos hôtes.
Nous avons des témoignages de propriétaires visibles sur un autre site de home-sitting. Nous vous en donnerons le lien.
What can they bring to the assignment
Nous sommes sensibles au fait que l'on nous fasse confiance. Nous respectons les lieux qui nous sont confiés. Nous aimons les animaux que nous câlinons sans avoir à nous forcer s'ils sont demandeurs.

Wonderful cat sitters!
Monique and Bernard spent over a month at my home looking after my cat while I was working out of town. They are fantastic sitters and it was a great first mindmyhouse experience for me. They were considerate, communicated regularly with photos and updates, and overall just took excellent care of my cat and my home while I was away - I had absolutely no worries at all while they were in charge. Do not hesitate to assign them. I would welcome them back anytime!!

Des vacances tranquilles grâce à un couple chaleureux/Peace of mind thanks to a lovely couple/Unas vacaciones tranquilas gracias a una cálida pareja
English follows/El español sigue Monique et Bernard forment un couple exceptionnel en matière de garde de maison et d'animaux de compagnie. Ils comprennent et maîtrisent la tâche et le mode de vie. J'ai eu beaucoup d'anxiété à l'idée de quitter ma maison et mes chattes pendant deux semaines, surtout avec les prévisions météorologiques épouvantables, mais ils m'ont complètement mis à l'aise grâce à leur expérience, leur attitude flexible et leur esprit d'aventure. Pendant mon absence, je recevais des mises à jour presque quotidiennes sur ce qui se passait à la maison et sur l'état de mes chattes. Elles sont toutes les deux très timides, mais en trois jours, elles se sont sentis à l'aise avec Monique et Bernard. La maison était dans un état impeccable à mon retour en dépit d'une inondation et un délicieux dîner m'attendait après une longue journée de voyage. Vous ne regretterez pas qu'ils s'occupent de votre maison et de vos animaux de compagnie. Merci beaucoup! __ Monique and Bernard are an exceptional couple when it comes to house and pet sitting. They understand and master the task and the way of life. I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my house and cats for two weeks, especially with the terrible weather forecast, but they put me completely at ease with their experience, flexible attitude and their adventurous spirit. While I was gone, I received almost daily updates on what was happening at home and how my cats were doing. They are both very shy, but in three days, they felt at ease with Monique and Bernard. The house was in immaculate condition when I returned despite a flood, and a delicious dinner awaited me after a long day of travel. You won't regret having them take care of your home and pets. Thank you so much! -- Monique y Bernard son una pareja excepcional en el cuidado de casas y mascotas. Entienden y dominan la tarea y el estilo de vida. Tuve mucha ansiedad por dejar mi casa y mis gatas durante dos semanas, especialmente con el terrible pronóstico del tiempo, pero me tranquilizaron completamente con sus experiencia, actitud flexible y espíritu aventurero. Mientras estaba fuera, recibí actualizaciones casi a diario sobre lo que sucedía en casa y cómo estaban mis gatas. Ambas son muy tímidas, pero al cabo de tres días se sentían bien con Monique y Bernard. La casa estaba en impecables condiciones cuando regresé a pesar de una inundación e incluso me esperaba una deliciosa cena después de un largo día de viaje. No te arrepentirás de que se ocupen de tu casa y de tus mascotas. ¡Muchas gracias!

What Fantastic Housesitters!
Monique and Bernard were wonderful housesitters. They were everything I could have wished for. They adored my cat and sent updates and photos during the month and a half we were away. They took such good care of the house and gardens. Everything inside was spotless and all my outside gardens flourished in spite of dry weather. They were always polite and considerate. Nothing was damaged and everything was in its place. I wouldn't hesitate to have them back again! I highly recommend them.

Delighted to have them here!
Monique and Bernard were what anyone could hope for! They took care of my 2 cats for 25 days. They were courteous, friendly people and left my house in such great order. Graciously, they had food in the fridge for me when I returned and cooked dinner for me when I arrived after my 30 hours of travel. I highly recommend Monique and Bernard. Our native languages were different, but we managed to communicate pretty well with what we knew and used Google translate when we needed. Janice

Deliziosa coppia dalla Francia
Abbiamo avuto il piacere e l'onore di conoscere Monique e Bernard questa estate, sono venuti dal sud della Francia fin qui a Udine per prendersi cura dei nostri animali domestici, delle piante e dell'orto. Sono una coppia di grande esperienza per "house-sitting" , totalmente affidabili e precisi, molto attenti alle necessità e al benessere degli animali, hanno annaffiato regolarmente tutte le piante. Quando siamo tornati abbiamo trovato la casa pulita e riordinata, ci hanno perfino fatto trovare pronta una squisita cena. Sono due persone di massima serietà e rispettabilità. Speriamo con molto piacere di rivederci in futuro. Grazie tante Monique e Bernard!

Monique and Bernard have just finished house sitting for us while we were away for four weeks. They arrived on time laden with bottles of wine and pate for us! They kept in touch while we were away to reassure us that everything was ok. On our return the house was tidy and clean. The garden well tended. They kindly left us an evening meal which was much appreciated as we were tired and jet lagged. We would strongly recommended them to anyone.

Thank you Monique and Bernard, you looked after Norman and Polly and the house perfectly. Lovely people and impeccably clean and tidy. We can highly recommend them and would be very happy to invite them back in the future. They even prepared a lovely meal for us when we arrived back home.
