Always find a match!

Since 2014 I put my yearly (long) housesitter assignments at Mindmyhouse.com, and I have always found a good match.
It never takes long for me to find a good sitter, even when it can be quite challenging on the island of Bali sometimes.

Fantastic site and will always use you

We have used your site for many many years and have had some lovely sitters during that time we have only had one bad experience in that time.
We have also stayed friends with quite a few of the sitters and have used the same sitters now for about 3/4 years and grately appreciate there care for our animals and home.
Would only use Mindmyhouse and recommend to wherever we can, thank you

Recommended to all our friends

We’ve been using Mind My House for over 15 years, and it has been an absolute gift for our home and our pets. Over the years we’ve found many wonderful housesitters through the site — several of whom became true friends we’re still in touch with today. A few even returned for repeat sits, which says a lot about the trust and connection this platform helps create.
Posting a listing is always quick and easy, and the range of available sitters is consistently impressive. We’ve had people who cared for our pets with real affection and kept our home safe and comfortable while we were away.
We highly recommend Mind My House to anyone looking for a reliable, friendly, and straightforward way to find someone to stay in their home, keep belongings safe, and give pets the care and company they deserve.

We've been using MindMyHouse for 15+ years.

I love using Mind My House. Over the years we've had sitters from all walks of life, from many countries and of many age groups.

We've briefly enjoyed the company of so many different people who in turn have enjoyed looking after our house and menagerie.

I will be heading there soon once we've decided on our 2026 travel dates.

The website is so easy to use.

Friend, open, homes and animals.

All home owners we have sat for have been welcoming and given us free run of their homes, gardens and facilities. A great way to see our friends in France and we also use it to visit family in Brighton. We've never felt put up or overburdened with responsibilities.

The Best House Sitting Platform on the Market!

We joined the House Sitting world in 2015 as we retired and were excited to work with Mind My House. Alan and Susan have built a responsive, trustworthy Team that can be relied on as they provide the most diverse House Sitting opportunities everyday.

Mind My House are the original House Sitting service, they provide excellent service and their member support is second to none. They provide the absolute best value and we wholeheartedly recommend them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The #1 Housesitting/Petsitting platform!!!

I Have been with mind my house for 15 years now. I started with the super expensive competitive housesitting service, which I won’t even mention the name, but I have been so happy with leaving there.Mind My House offers many sits and I get daily notifications. I think what I love most is that the customer service is outstanding. Any question or problem I’ve had I get immediate response and resolution. I have done many different housesits I found through them and will continue. In my opinion, they are the number one housesitting service. I highly recommend them.

Mindmyhouse.com musings

I have been using Mindmyhouse.com since 2014, firstly as a house sitter but now I also have a homeowner listing too. Theirs is a genuine, family run site and they have constantly improved the functionality over the years whilst managing to maintain the friendly feel. You get the impression that they really care about their users and, being house sitters themselves, have a great understanding of how a successful house sitting platform should be run. They have managed to keep their fees low in comparison with their corporate competitors and I plan to be with them for a long time! I belong to a number of house sitting sites and this one is the most friendly by far - the newsletters are chatty, informative and not too frequent so you don't get bombarded with content. I have been to some wonderful places and met amazing people and pets through this site and can thoroughly recommend them.

Recommended house sitting website

As a house owner we have found the site easy to use and update our offer,keeping it hidden until we need to use the advert again.
Always willing to help if you have a query.
We have had some of our best long term sitters from MMH over the last 18 years, albeit BREXIT and COVID have made the situation more challenging.

MindMyHouse is the BEST house-sitting website!

I have been using MindMyHouse for over 15 years, and I've tried a few others as well. And I can say without a doubt that MindMyHouse is the BEST one; the one I go to first when I am looking for a house-sitter. They are the easiest and friendliest website to use by far! And it's free to use for hosts!

Mind my House, a wonderful resource.

Mind my House is a fantastic site which I’ve been using for the past 14 years. I’ve had more sitters from them that I can remember.
All the sitters have been lovely. My animals have been well looked after and my house has been secure and tidy on my return.
I highly recommend using Mind my House.

Great website!

We have been house sitters on MindmyHouse for 13 years enjoying numerous sits in Spain, France, Portugal and more recently the UK. Do your own research to insure a good fit and there won't be a problem. We also used the site as owners and also recommend the service to others. I'm surprised how many people don't know about it!

The Best House Sitting Platform!

We’ve been using Mind My House now for I’m sure almost 15 years and have always had great house sitting experiences, travelling the world and meeting interesting people and of course, lovely pets. More recently we have also joined as house owners as well as house sitters and regularly use Mind My House to get reliable and kindly people to look after our own dog while we travel and housesit. It is a great platform and I’d thoroughly recommend it (and often do) to anyone interested in starting house and pet sitting or who needs a pet sitter while they travel.

Then and Now

I was involved with this company many years ago, probably when it first started, then my life changed,drastically, and I quit my membership. I have since re-subscribed, and have been quite satisfied with the results. You won't be sorry if you decide to use this site. Everything is up-to-date and easy to use.

Easy to Use, Fast Support, Highly Recommended

We recently signed up for Mind My House, and even though we are still very new to the community, we have only positive things to say so far. The website is easy to use. It may not be the most modern in design, but it offers everything you need to navigate the platform smoothly and efficiently.

One feature we absolutely love is that Mind My House allows you to transfer reviews from other house-sitting platforms, which means you don’t have to start from scratch — a huge plus for experienced sitters.

What really stood out to us was the customer support. It was honestly one of the fastest we’ve ever experienced. We had a few questions, and Alan got back to us within 15 minutes! His response was friendly and helpful, and he made sure all our questions were answered thoroughly.

Overall, we’re very happy with our experience so far and can highly recommend Mind My House to anyone looking for a reliable house-sitting platform.

Amazing idea and services!

Been using Mindmyhouse for over 15 years and I love their services! We’ve met people from all over the world coming to take care of our house/cats. Such a great relief to have trustworthy people staying in one’s home and not have to put the animals in a shelter.
Next house sitter arriving next week for Xmas hols - someone we’ve already used this year. Fabulous idea, very well made website, very easy to use. Wholeheartedly recommended!
