Thanks for this video. It's very informative and answered a lot of questions. What would you say are the downsides, if any, from your experience?

congrats,beautiful vlog ,we changed life from Lisbon to Alcobaça, renovating, and with a lot quality keep it going on 🙂

What a great lady you are for doing all this work . You are amazing you are such a lovable woman . Women in Europe do not offer their services to look after the pets and take care of villas and homes. You deserve a medal for that . Congratulations for your inspiration and creativity . Have a great Holiday season in December 2022 and May God bless you , Best wishes from Milan , Italy

Was leuk jou en al de andere YouTube beroemdheden eens in het echt te ontmoeten

Have fun with all the lovely animals, cant go wrong with 4 legged friends.

✨✨I totally enjoyed the Sit n Chat video☺️. The footage, the beautiful animals that are loved and cared for and left in your wonderful hands to care for. You’ve introduced a much needed skill as our world comes closer together. Next time, I’ll come prepared with tea and biscuits ( sorry no PG Tips in the US)✨

I’ll be there on August 4th – 13th. I hope to see you and maybe go on a walk. If I’m lucky, I’ll have a house for when I move there in October.

Hi Luise I have finally moved to Portugal. I found a rental in Padrão, a little village near Castelo Branco. I can move in on 1st August. Now looking for a place to buy. I will register with Trusted Housesitters as I will have beside my 2 cats also chickens and goats and a vegetable patch and probably a dog. Sorry I did not manage to bring PG tips with me for you.

Thanks for the video Lou. I'd asked which site (or sites) you were using. I've done a lot of house-sitting and including pets (just dogs and cats so far) with special needs. I miss having dogs, so it is a great way to fill in that void. My 11 year old domestic cat travels with me.
Once I arrive I'll start up my account again and start looking at sits.
Take care, and obrigada ~

Awesome idea I’m myself a animal lover and thinking of moving to Portugal and this way I get to experience the areas! I’ll check the site out!

Hey great info Louise on a good way to get to know a place before you decide to settle 😎 just watching this drinking my cup of Tetley’s tea ☕️😋😜

Great information Lou, for folks wanting to experience different areas, muito obrigado ❤💚💛

What a lovely thing to do Louise … Be with animals, visit new places and meet new people… Great idea, enjoy

Thanks for sharing! This is exactly what I should have done before traveling to PT. For almost two weeks, I’ve been yoked to my phone checking my house and car all hours of the day and night making sure everything is okay, meanwhile a trusted house sitter would have eased all that worry. I didn’t mention this on Instagram but, it’s another reason I didn’t make it to Idanha-a-Nova because my accommodations there didn’t have WiFi (and without WiFi I can’t check on the house) and no SIM cards will work in my phone. Anyone, it’s a long comment to say, Yes, to Trusted House Sitter and I’m going to join.

Did you get your PG Tips? I've ordered stuff from the British Essentials before. Maybe you can try and order from there? You can always use my postal address.

Wow…you are a very talented, hands-on woman..and brave to take on these challenges

Thanks – Excellent information on house sitting.

Aww shes obviously got German Shep in her, enjoy your time with the fur babies

Very informative … you clearly love animals and they respond to you favourably because of this.
A fantastic nomadic life your are embracing allowing you to find your forever location further down the line.
🙏☘️😘

Sounds like a good way to get around. Are you searching for property to buy?

So beautiful, enjoy dear. x👌🙏💜💚
