Frequently asked questions
What is Sit Sababa?
Sit Sababa (סיט סבבה, also written סיטסבבה) is Israel’s house- and pet-sitting community: owners post a house sit covering the time they are away, and verified sitters apply and stay for free in exchange for looking after the home and the pets. No money changes hands between the two sides, and the service is free at launch.
How much does it cost?
During the launch period, Sit Sababa is free for both owners and sitters.
How does matching work?
Owners post a listing, sitters whose profiles were reviewed before publication apply with a personal message, and the owner chooses a sitter and confirms the match. Only then are the exact address and contact details revealed to both sides.
Does my address stay private?
Yes. The exact address and contact details stay private and are revealed to both sides only after the owner confirms the match.
What does the sitter check involve?
Our team reviews the profile before it is published. Sitters can add references, and identity verification happens only if the sitter chooses it. This is not a background check, so it remains important to get to know each other, ask questions and judge the fit yourself.
