That’s great! How was Exeter?? I can’t wait to go.

You will love Exeter. Try also to visit some of the nearby towns too whilst you are there. Topsham, Exmouth, Totnes, Lympstone village, etc - all very easy to get toon the train.

Welcome! There are very few Sit opportunities without pets, but perhaps you will get lucky and find one that suits you!
Good luck! 
Are you a sitter, a pet parent, or neither?
Sitter! I love animals and being around them always lifts my mood.
**What brings you to the Forum?
I’m curious to learn more about how payments work—what to expect, how they’re processed, and any tips from experienced folks.
What are your hobbies or interests?
Psychology, animals (of course!), writing essays for fun, and anything related to space.
What’s something fun or unique about you?
I genuinely enjoy writing academic-style essays in my free time—especially when I get to dig into human behavior or social dynamics!
If you’re an experienced Forum member, what’s your specialist area for giving advice?
(Not quite a veteran yet, but I’d love to learn and contribute where I can!)
So, for experienced sitters- if an owner offers payment or a gift- but i do not ask for it, is it ok to accept it?
Hello everyone! My name is Bella, and I am interested in doing some pet sitting / Dog walking this summer! I am a recent college graduate looking forward to traveling this September and would love the opportunity to spend time with pets before I leave. I have two dogs, a cat, and a tortoise who is a lot faster than you would think. Some of my hobbies include reading (love books), baking/cooking (I work at a cafe/bakery on the weekends), and going on walks (naturally). I am new to this site and Forum, and love advice as to how to get started-- this is me making the first step! Let me know if there is anything else I can do to get myself out there and to start house/pet sitting!
