Our house-sitters are great pet lovers and exchange their time for free accommodation
Many home and pet owners worry about meeting new sitters. It is a natural concern. However, by doing the due diligence, choosing a good house-sitting platform and reading the reviews for both the platform and the house-sitters you will learn a great deal and then you can decide how to trust in your choice of sitter.
You can relax on holiday knowing your pets are being cared for in their own environment, at no cost to you by sitters that are recommended. The pet-sitters will offer their time and service in exchange for free accommodation. It allows the sitter to discover a new location from the comfort of your home. It’s like old fashioned barter.

Each housesit benefits both the homeowner and the house-sitter. Your pets receive one-on-one attention at home, your property stays protected, and you avoid expensive kennel fees. Take Philippa – she saves over €1,500 annually using house sitters instead of boarding kennels for Panda and her other animals.
For a small annual registration fee, you can connect with verified house-sitters willing to provide free pet care and home security. Your pets deserve the comfort of their own home, and you deserve an affordable holiday.
