Hi, I am Genevieve from France, my nickname is Liz, live south Perpignan, Spanish border in France

[GenevieveLiz]

I’ve just joined TrustedHousesitters and am very happy.
I miss my pets, I’ve had pets until recently and I look after friend’s ones regularly when they go away. Unfortunately I can’t have pets where I live and miss not having any.
If I could I would have two cats !
I know best cats, dogs, chickens.
I love them all but have this close affinity with cats.
I live in a beautiful part of France, the very South, at the Spanish border, south of Perpignan.
I am 61, full of energy and can’t wait for my first pet sitting !
Is there anybody in my area ???

Securing our first few sits

Hello all, thanks for being here. As a newbie from Canada we appreciate your feed back. We plan to be in Italy the spring of 2023 with family for 6 weeks but then stay on for a few more months in the summer pet sitting. Our question is "Should we be applying for multiple jobs for the same time spot? or “Should we apply to one and wait to see if we get a response and then move on?” Also if someone has said that they are interested but don’t want to confirm because they may have to change the dat…

New sitter member how do we help the owner prepare for our sit?

Hello all, Me and my fiance just joined THS and got out first sit confirmed this morning. The HO has asked what can they prepare for our arrival? I’m not sure what to say really as we don’t know what is the basic expectations from sitters? I’m assuming fresh bed sheets, clean bathroom, clear instructions for house care and alarm system, etc. Is there a list of basic requirements you all use?

Also, remember you can use the spyglass symbol at the top of the page next to the TrustedHousesitters logo and search for any questions that you may have as they have most likely already been answered on here and of course if not then please just ask!
