What is house sitting?

Simply put, house sitting is the practice whereby a home owner, leaving their house for a period of time, entrusts it to one or more "house sitters", who by a mutual agreement are entitled to live there rent-free in exchange for assuming responsibilities such as taking care of the homeowner's pets, performing general maintenance etc.

I gave it a try and I'm glad I did ( Sitter)

I came from a different house sitting site that became too corporate for my taste. Part of the reason I chose this one is because I could bring my reviews from the other - I had earned many good ones. There are nice quality listings, though not as many as some big sites, the ratio feels better because I don't think there are as many sitters either. There's also no limit to the number of applicants a homeowner can accept, so a good sitter can really stand out. The support is provided by the people who have run the site since 2005, no AI, I really appreciate that. There is no app but the website works well on mobile and you can set up daily alerts for whatever search filters you choose. And obviously the cost is minimal compared to many other sites. For that reason I gave it a try and I'm glad I did because I've had many wonderful sits so far.
