About Us: SabbaticalHomes.com was founded in 2000 by the spouse of an academic devoted to serving the academic community worldwide. It is the leading internet-based directory for academic home exchanges, home rentals and house sitting opportunities, facilitating sabbatical home matches across the globe. Our specialized housing service has published over 45,000 requests from homeowners and tenants and continues to grow each day. SabbaticalHomes.com has been featured in The Chronicle of Higher Education (US edition). The Guardian (United Kingdom) wrote, "ideal for anyone involved in research trips or exchange projects." Hundreds of academic web sites link to us and refer to us as a valuable and efficient resource. We are thankful to have grown primarily through word of mouth. More than a third of our members come recommended from previous users. SabbaticalHomes.com is a privately owned company run by a team of multinational individuals.
