The sitter will take care of the house and everything that goes along with it but his/ her service is being paid. The second type of house sitter is the one who stay in the house for free in exchange to looking for the house and caring for it as well as the pets and the garden.

First, once you got the call from the homeowners, set a date before you move into the house for checking and getting to know the house first. Ask the owner everything that you need to know and make sure to take note of it if you don't want to forget them. Ask whether there are security settings in the house including on how to take care of the pets because there are homeowners who are very particular with it.

When you move to the house, don't bring many things with you because you will end up searching the whole house once you're to leave. Just bring with you the essential things you will need and make sure to put all your belongings in one place only (say in your room).

Enjoy your stay in the house but don't forget your responsibility on it. Keep in mind that the owners have entrusted you their house so keep their trust for more reference.
