Founded by experienced long-term house sitters Vanessa and Ian, House Sitting Magazine grew from our own experience into a trusted resource for a growing international community. We've shared hundreds of real-life stories, practical guides and honest reviews, interviewed experienced house sitters and homeowners, and helped people around the world take their first steps into house sitting.
Our experience goes beyond only writing about house sitting. In 2019, we hosted the first ever House & Pet Sitting Conference in the UK, bringing together house sitters, homeowners and leading house sitting platforms from around the world.
We also created our own practical house sitting course, appeared in international media and podcasts, and spent years working in the house sitting industry.
Today, House Sitting Magazine combines real-world experience and the knowledge from a global community to help you travel, house sit and create the lifestyle that really works for you.
Now, we're also exploring the wider possibilities of a travel lifestyle, from long-term travel and living abroad, to retirement and new destinations.
