House and Home Sitters Ltd was established by my late wife and me in 2013, to provide professional house sitters and pet sitters across the UK (including Northern Ireland) who take care of homeowners' (or tenants') homes and pets while they are away for whatever reason. This business has grown steadily and now has more than 400 registered background-, ID- and reference-checked insured house sitters across the UK. Each sitter has been thoroughly vetted and personally interviewed by me to ensure they uphold the high standard ethos and values of our company, in particular, to respect the privacy and property of our homeowner clients, and care for their home and pets as if their own. According to our guidelines, the house sitter should not be away from the property more than four hours during the day, nor more than two hours after sunset.
