The next step for experienced sitters
Platforms like TrustedHousesitters are brilliant for building experience. You apply for sits, you do great work, you collect reviews. Over time, you become genuinely good at what you do.
But there's a missing piece.
On those platforms, you can only apply to listings. Hosts don't find you — you find them. Your reputation lives on their servers. And asking for payment? That's complicated at best.
Reputable Sitters is that missing piece. A place where your reputation lives independently. Where you can state your rates openly. Where hosts looking for paid housesitters can find you.
More than verification — genuine curation
Every applicant receives Reputable Profiling — a deep analysis of your housesitting history that surfaces what makes you distinctive.
We review your complete review history, identify patterns hosts consistently value, and provide personalised questions designed to draw out your story. This isn't automated verification. It's genuine curation.
You'll receive:
- A summary of what hosts consistently value about you
- Patterns you might not have noticed in your own reviews
- 10 personalised questions to help articulate your story
- A foundation for a profile that actually represents you
Why the fee? The Reputable Profiling fee covers approximately half a day of dedicated attention to your application. This is why we limit intake to 25 applicants per month — proper curation takes time.

How verification works
Request your data
Under GDPR, you have the legal right to request all data platforms hold about you — including every review. TrustedHousesitters is UK-based, Nomador is France-based, so GDPR applies to all their users worldwide.
Receive your export
Platforms must respond within 30 days. You'll receive a file containing your profile, reviews, and verification status.
Submit with your application
Apply to join Reputable Sitters and include the relevant portions of your data export. We verify your review count and credentials.
Get listed
Once verified, pay to secure your founding member spot. Your profile will be visible immediately and goes fully live on April 15th, 2026.

This complements your platform memberships
We're not asking you to leave TrustedHousesitters or any other platform. Many sitters use both.
Use platforms for sits where the exchange model works. Use Reputable Sitters when you want paid work. Formalise bookings through platforms if you want their insurance. It's your choice.
We're the next step — a showcase layer where your hard-earned reputation lives independently.
