About Honey Home Keepers

The people behind
every stay.

Meet the team that makes "fully leave" possible, from the story that started it all to the Home Keepers who show up for your family every trip.

Our Story

Where it began

Honey Home Keepers was founded in 2019, inspired by a simple yet powerful moment: watching a family return from vacation, their faces lit up with joy as they stepped into a clean home, greeted by happy pets. That moment of pure contentment, knowing their home and furry companions had been lovingly cared for, sparked our mission to bring this peace of mind to families beyond one household, beyond one neighborhood.

We believe that your time away should be filled with adventure, togetherness, and the confidence that your home and pets are in the best hands. At Honey Home Keepers, we come to your home, maintain your pets' routines, and handle every detail with care. Our business is built from the heart, with a focus on ensuring that no matter where your travels take you, your return home is always sweeter.

Our service is guided by a commitment to excellence and integrity. We carefully select our sitters, ensuring they are not only kind and caring but also trustworthy individuals who pass thorough background checks.
