How Sitterly works

    Your pets stay home. Your sitter stays free.

    A caring exchange that gives pets familiar surroundings, homeowners peace of mind, and sitters a welcoming place to stay.

    Watch the overview

    A fair exchange built around pet care

    No money changes hands for the sit. A trusted sitter receives accommodation while caring for the homeowner's pets and home.

    One simple exchange. Three happy outcomes.

    A familiar home for pets, confidence for owners, and meaningful stays for sitters.

    You travel

    Head away for work, a holiday, or family time without disrupting your pet's routine.

    Your sitter stays

    Someone you choose lives in your home and provides the agreed care while you are away.

    Your pets stay settled

    Pets keep their familiar home, routine, and surroundings while receiving one-to-one attention.

    For homeowners

    Keep your pets happy at home while you travel
