House sitter testimonials
...without you I would never have made it all the way from Down Under to the unmissable wonders of Europe!
MindMyHouse is by far the most user-friendly house-sitting site on the net today. It is also one of the least expensive, and offers the best resources. Even BEFORE I secured a long-term housesit in beautiful Spain through MindMyHouse, I was recommending the site to friends. Keep up the good work, without you I would never have made it all the way from Down Under the unmissable wonders of Europe, not to mention meeting the owner of the home I'm now sitting, who I hope will be a life-long friend. Worth ten times the current fee (but you didn't hear it from me!)

Home owner testimonials
The prospect of the expense and stress of leaving our house unattended and dogs in kennels was horrific!
We were planning a 3 month sabbatical and the prospect of the expense and stress of leaving our house unattended and dogs in kennels was horrific! I was thrilled to stumble upon mindmyhouse.com; even more so when I was inundated with responses from ideal-sounding house sitters. We got a particularly good vibe from Kathy & Doug from Vancouver and haven't regretted our choice. They survived the worst winter here in the UK since 1974 while we were enjoying the sun, and we came back in early April to find the garden immaculate with new bedding plants in the pots, and home made soup in the fridge. We will definitely use the site again if Kathy & Doug aren't available the next time we travel and have already recommended it to friends, family and strangers who would listen all over the world!
