About Ariela Hellström:

Responsible homeowner with long experience, now offering reliable house sitting worldwide.

Hello, my name is Ariela and I’m from Sweden.
I look forward to caring for your home with both warmth and heart!

Stepping into a new phase of life, with grown children and flexible work, I now see new opportunities opening up. I own a large house with both tenants and a garden, which has given me many years of experience in keeping a property safe, well-maintained, and welcoming for others.

I have also shared my life with both dogs and cats for decades, and I am fully comfortable looking after animals with responsibility and care, if needed.

For many years I ran my own company within project and operations management, which strengthened my skills in structure, responsibility, and problem-solving. About ten years ago, I made a major shift in my life – from outer power to inner. Today I work with inner growth and wellbeing, such as yoga, meditation, and sound healing, which brings me a deep sense of fulfillment and balance.

Now that my children are grown, I have the freedom to give myself a longer break, explore new places, and live more simply for a while. I am also considering relocating from Sweden within the next few years, so house sitting offers me a valuable way to experience life in different countries and feel into where I might want to settle.

I look forward to creating meaningful connections and to the opportunity to care for your property with the same respect and dedication as my own.

Warm greetings,
Ariela

Acquaintance in Borås, Sweden

“After my mother’s passing I was in despair and overwhelmed by both emotions and all the belongings that needed to be sorted out. Ariela helped me through that difficult time, bringing structure and gentle support. With her help, I managed to go through my mother’s things and, little by little, find my way forward. Thanks to her, I can see life in a brighter light again.”

Employer in Borås, Sweden

“Ariela has the unique combination of warmth, heart, and structure. In the project Väven, where we musically and artistically portrayed the history of the local community, she was an invaluable force. She brought order and structure, offered personal support, and contributed with both confidence and joy – as a host on stage as well as behind the scenes. I can truly vouch for Ariela as a rock: reliable, dedicated, and a genuinely fine human being.”

“Ariela helped me prepare my house for rental, and her contribution was invaluable. She works with respect, structure, and great attention to detail, yet what stands out most is the sense of calm she brings – even in stressful situations. With Ariela’s support, everything flowed smoothly and I felt completely at ease knowing she had things under control.”
