Sheltr operates as a technology-driven home maintenance company, positioning itself to shift home care from a reactive to a proactive model. It was founded in 2018 by Andrew Wynn and Praveen Chekuri. The firm's core offering is a subscription-based service for homeowners, centered around preventative care to identify and resolve potential issues before they escalate into expensive repairs.

The primary service includes biannual "Home Checkups," which function like a physical examination for a house. During these visits, trained professionals perform a range of preventative tasks, such as replacing furnace filters, changing batteries in smoke detectors, and conducting a comprehensive assessment of the property. This inspection covers nearly 30 household items, checking for issues like leaking pipes and clogged vents. Following the checkup, clients receive a detailed report summarizing the work performed and a list of actionable recommendations for further maintenance. The company also provides on-demand tele-maintenance support via text and images, along with access to a network of vetted service providers for any necessary repairs at transparent, fixed rates.

In May 2019, Sheltr secured $3.2 million in a seed funding round. A significant milestone in the company's trajectory occurred in November 2019 when it was acquired by the home insurance technology company, Hippo. The acquisition was a strategic move for Hippo to integrate Sheltr's proactive maintenance services into its own offerings, reinforcing its mission to help homeowners reduce risk and prevent losses. Following the acquisition, Andrew Wynn transitioned to the role of Director of Home Services at Hippo, and the entire Sheltr team was integrated into the new parent company.
