My pets are outdoor animals. If $25 a week and having no housekeeping responsibilities is burdensome to you, you would not be a good selection for us. We’ve had more than a dozen housesitters who welcomed the arrangement. There are many ways to accompany both homeowner and housesitter, wouldn’t you agree??
Not at all. $25 for a clean is a steal. We just would never take a sit with any utility contributions out of principle (ditto many other experienced sitters). Totally your prerogative just not for us. #toodlepip

I’m curious if you have sitters who vomit a lot on carpets? Perhaps you’re picking the wrong sitters as it’s a strange example to offer as justification.

It is not unreasonable to ask on the initial meeting and hling through what is expected, like asming the sitters to clean down the shower unit and to take all hair that may gather in pkug hole. I am a sitter and do this as a matter of course.
