Using house sitters to secure your empty property

If you’re a home owners and planning to leave your property empty for a period of time, then using house sitters could be the perfect solution. At Property Guardians we supply fully vetted house sitters who look after your house and pets while you’re away, in return for rent-free accommodation. It’s that simple.

Flexible – our trusted house sitters can look after your home for any period of time, from as little as a few days to months.

Less stress for pets – the beauty of housesitting is that the pets get to remain in the comfort of their own home. This reduces anxiety for both the pets and the owners alike.

General property upkeep – knowing that someone is looking after your plants and on hand in the event of an emergency (e.g. frozen water pipes bursting), using a trusted house sitter gives home owners peace of mind while away.

Home security – unattended homes that go weeks with no movement, mail piling up and grass uncut is an open invitation for thieves.

Insurance coverage – some insurance policies now require someone to be living in the home for a claim to be valid.

Similarly to our property guardian scheme, the house sitters that we use to secure empty property go through a comprehensive vetting process. This includes criminal record checks, employment references and face-to-face interviews.
