How it works
Sit Sababa connects home owners with pets to sitters looking for a house sit in exchange for a place to stay. Here is the process — from posting the listing to confirming the match.
For home owners with pets
Find the sitter who suits you
Post details about your home, your pets and your dates, receive applications, and talk to sitters before you confirm a match.
