easyJet has teamed up with TrustedHousesitters in a move that will make it easier for animal lovers to travel the world...
Pet owners will be able to choose a free, verified house sitter for their pet or find free accommodation as a house sitter when booking flights on easyJet.com.
“easyJet is committed to making travel as easy as possible for our customers," said Andrew Middleton, ancillary revenue director for easyJet. "This new partnership with TrustedHousesitters is the latest step we’ve taken to deliver on that promise.
“By helping holidaymakers find trusted people to look after their pets and homes or by helping them to find free accommodation in return for housesitting, we will make travel possible for even more people.”
TrustedHousesitters managing director, Tim Lyons, said: “There are millions of pet owners in desirable locations all over the world without adequate pet care, we can now enable them to travel more often with peace of mind, boosting tourism while giving people more authentic travel experiences.
“This helps make travel easier and more affordable all round.
“Our speciality is connecting people with authentic and amazing places to stay which include the company of an adorable pet, easyJet’s speciality is getting people there - I think we will make a great team.”
The unlimited house and pet sitting available through TrustedHousesitters comes with an annual membership fee of £89 a year.
