Are we mad?

Lots of Sitters have done this including us ( for over 3 years). We mainly travel though and do housesits for a break from that. It’s difficult to get dates to work exactly on back to back housesits so expect some odd nights in hotels. Our kids are jealous!

I think I was 60 at age 12, as I’ve spent my life being assertive and yes you’re quite right other women don’t like it although men appreciate a woman being clear. Now I’m 66 I’m mellowing a bit I’m told…:joy:

You are not mad!!!
As I’ve written in my blog in Medium, the decisions you regret in the end are almost unquestionably what you didn’t do rather than the things you did do. The only thing I would say is, do you have enough money to be able to cover any gaps between sits? Otherwise it might be a little stressful if you need to have it be seamlessly covered.
We sold everything and moved to Amsterdam from Los Angeles last August, and one of the loves of our pet sitting experiences, Bear, Lives here. We have never done continual back to back pet sitting in our travels, but I definitely think it’s doable and I read about people who do. The biggest emotion we have gotten from family and friends is envy and support. And if that’s not what you’re getting, maybe you need to cultivate some new friends!
It was a lot of work but we have never, even for one second regretted it.
