About Housepawty

We help pet parents find trusted house and pet sitters in Cape Town, Johannesburg and all major petros. Book online, pay in full to reserve, meet your sitter within 24 hours, then enjoy your trip while we keep tails wagging and homes secure.

Why we started

Our own pups, Morris the softie and Chipatti the senior beagle, taught us how stressful it is to leave pets behind. After a few “never again” sitter stories, we built the service we wished existed.

What we do

• Live-in sits or pop-in visits for dogs, cats and small pets
• Background-checked sitters with profiles you can actually read
• Meet and greet before you commit
• Daily photo updates, meds given as instructed, plants watered, bins out, alarms set
• Homes returned tidy, pets returned smug and content

How it works

• Pick a sitter with live availability
• Pay to reserve your dates
• Meet and greet within 24 hours
• Confirm or request a change, then relax

No wild parties, no mystery guests, just professional care that treats your pets like family and your home like its owner is watching.
