10 Years of TrustedHousesitters: Class of 2019

This month, we’re celebrating TrustedHousesitters’ 10-year anniversary. That’s ten whole years (or 60, in dog years!) of keeping pets happy at home and connecting pet lovers from all across the globe.

While our celebrations this year might be a little different to how we’d planned, we’ve been taking a walk down memory lane and looking back on ten whole years of TrustedHousesitters, and raising a bowl to the pets — and people — that made it happen!

Meet the Class of 2019…

“After travelling with my owner for eight years, I’m now loving life in Switzerland!

I love walking around in the snow and by the lake, taking my sitters along with me, but I’m quite a sniffer, so a slow and steady pace is how I like to take it…”

Meet Bean, the adorable Jack Russell from Switzerland representing TrustedHousesitters’ Class of 2019

Following a stint of European adventures together, Bean’s owner, Pamela, joined TrustedHousesitters back in 2019, joining 175,714 fellow pet members that year…

“Bean recently joined me in my European adventures. He has moved around a lot with me for the last eight years, and he is loving life in Switzerland! He is a big fan of the snow and walks by the lake.” — Pamela

With 22 sitters under his collar since 2019 alone, Bean is a pooch truly loved the world over, with sitters coming from Spain, Scotland, the USA, Australia and more. 

“Bean is such a love and really enjoys being outside. We spent a lot of time by the lake which is gorgeous and when we were inside we played, cuddled, or just hung out.” — Kaitlyn, Romania

And it’s no wonder Bean is a real easy-going, happy pup that simply loves to be around humans! Not to mention his dog-guided walks around Lake Geneva, which naturally go down a storm with his sitters...

"I had such a fabulous time with Bean on Lake Geneva! He was nothing but loving and the best company — he especially loves it when you give him a rub along his neck! Our walks were beautiful along the lake." — Teresa, Scotland
