Mathew Prior is the CEO of Trusted Housesitters, a home share website for people who need someone to watch over their pets and homes when on the road.

Mathew makes his home in Brighton, England. After university, he got his start in the travel business leading package tours throughout Spain for mostly UK tourists.

While dogs make up the majority of pets who need sitting, Mathew says members have watched over cats, horses, reptiles, and assorted farm animals as well!

Full disclosure: this is not a paid ad. The Travel Tales household utilized Trusted Housesitters services while on vacation last year and it worked out great!

Thanks, Mathew!
