Updated on August 14, 2011

House sitters

Are you wanting to go away for a long period of time yet find it almost impossible because you have a dog or other pet that needs looking after ?

There are many people around the world in the same position & that is why house sitting as it is called has become very popular these days.

If you can find someone to look after your beloved pet & home for the dates you require that leaves you free to enjoy a stress free holiday away knowing your pets are happy at home rather than being in a kennel .

I looked after children + a dog in North London for 2 weeks while the parents went away & we had a great time !.

Petsitter Available

Most people who want a housesitter do so because they have a pet or many pets that need looking after and like the idea of them being in their own environment .

I have been a pet sitter in the past traveling to peoples homes while they are away to feed & water dogs, horses, cats and even alpacas + a snake or 2 !

As well as looking after other peoples animals I have had my own lambs, calf + chickens , ducks , rabbit, cats and a dog over the years !

If you really don't like animals then make sure you don't house sit where they need animals looking after. It is not fair to the owners or the animals.

Other things that could be asked of you is to water the garden or inside plants, empty the mailbox daily etc.


Housitters Available everywhere !
