TrustedHousesitters is a Brighton-based membership platform that connects pet owners with verified sitters through an annual £99 subscription. The service has facilitated more than four million nights of pet sitting across 130 countries and has added over 30,000 new owner and sitter members since the start of 2021. The company reports revenue at twice pre-pandemic levels despite travel restrictions, a trend driven in part by a rise in pet ownership during the pandemic. Founded in 2010, TrustedHousesitters enables a value exchange where sitters offer stays in return for pet care, appealing to travellers and remote-working digital nomads. Management plans to use new capital to grow its membership base and expand in the United States, with a particular focus on California.
