1. Platform Role

All for Houses is a platform that connects Homeowners and Sitters for house sitting, pet sitting, house check up, pet check up, dog walking, and related services.

  • monitoring home security

  • caring for plants

  • coordinating contractors where necessary

Sitters agree to treat homes, pets, and personal property respectfully at all times.

3. Term

These Terms shall remain effective for as long as the Sitter maintains an active profile or uses the All for Houses platform.
