Spiritual travellers have the chance to stay in authentic yoga inspired homes – from a private Greek island to a secluded luxury jungle home in Costa Rica – through house and pet sitting platform TrustedHousesitters.

For those who don’t think a one-hour yoga class in a local studio is enough to find their zen, yoga retreats in exotic locations are a dream, but they can come with a hefty price tag.

TrustedHousesitters has a solution – among the list of homes in over 130 countries on its website, it includes two om-azing properties that will appeal to yoga lovers who are willing to care for the resident pets. These two yoga inspired house sits let you nama-stay for a membership fee of only $99 a year.

Imagine six weeks on a secluded private island in Oreoí, Greece, waking up to a sunrise yoga session among ancient olive groves overlooking the crystal blue Mediterranean Sea. Every year the owner of this idyllic yoga retreat needs an island sitter to take care of an adorable fluffy cat and a cuddly dog.

Surrounded by an organic olive farm and running on solar power, the house offers a unique experience for a yogi to switch off and re-connect with nature. The opportunity is available during the winter low season when the yoga retreat is closed, and you will be the only inhabitant on the island besides the pets, providing the perfect opportunity to find peace and quiet.

Or if Greece doesn’t appeal, how about a secluded, serene home in Costa RicaNestled into the lush jungle behind the beach town of Montezuma, you can practice yoga in privacy on the terrace overlooking the azure Caribbean Sea.

This artisan built, rustic property is home to a yoga teacher and features unique details built around the yoga lifestyle. Your only company will be the sounds of the jungle and the purring of the two resident cats.

Tim Lyons, CEO of TrustedHousesitters said, “We have thousands of sits, from remote locations to city escapes and beachside getaways and we’re finding that yoga sits are increasingly popular on our site.”

“They suit the caring, compassionate and open-minded members of the TrustedHousesitters community who want to lose themselves in nature, switch off and relax with the company of pets. Yoga sits on our site are the most authentic mindfulness journeys you can possibly find and allow members to build meaningful relationships with both animals and humans alike.”
