Find a trusted reptile sitter near me

Traveling to a new environment can be stressful and challenging, especially if your pets live in a large enclosure. But choosing an in-home pet sitter through TrustedHousesitters means your scaly sidekicks can stay safe and sound in the place they know and love. Speak to our pet-loving sitters to find the perfect match for your reptile’s special needs, and connect with a sitter who “gets” everything from programmed lighting and heat lamps to warm water bathing and live feed.

The cost of reptile boarding varies from country to country, but typically, it’s around £10 a day in the UK and $15 in the US. But you can wave goodbye to those daily fees with TrustedHousesitters, unlocking a whopping 365 days of dedicated pet care for the price of an annual membership.

Got a vacation planned and looking for someone to care for your scaly sidekick? No problem! Our in-home reptile sitters are here to make sure your precious pets enjoy the staycation they deserve. Connect with thousands of verified sitters who’ll take care of your beloved buddies in the comfort of their own home, so you can enjoy true peace of mind while you’re off exploring.   

While reptile sitters tailor their care to each individual pet, they always make sure your scaly sidekicks are fed and their enclosures are clean. They keep a close eye on your beloved buddies to make sure they’re happy and healthy, and many sitters will enjoy getting hands-on with your pets, as long as that’s your reptile’s thing. As well as caring for your pet’s everyday needs, our sitters are often happy to take on a number of household chores, aside from keeping the place clean and tidy, of course. These are to be agreed on before the sit starts but typically include things like watering house plants and taking in the mail.

We love all kinds of scaly and slithery friends, and luckily, so do many of our sitters! Just be aware that we cannot accept any inherently dangerous pets on our platform, as stated in our Terms & Conditions. This includes venomous snakes, constrictors, and any animals that are banned in your area or have a history of attacks on pets or people.

We're called TrustedHousesitters for a reason! We've been connecting animal lovers with happy home owners (and their pets) for more than ten years now.  All sitters in our network go through a verification process, and this is highlighted on their profile. This includes phone/email verification, as well as external references and thorough ID checks through our partners, Evident ID. That being said, it's still important to follow your gut - that's why we recommend conducting video interviews and getting to know potential sitters before agreeing to anything.
