Hello @Stuartdalzell and I’m sorry to hear that you haven’t received any applications as yet.
I know you have received many applications in the past but if I may suggest, it would be helpful if you could add your TrustedHousesitters profile on to your Forum profile on here, (I have attached a link to explain how), and this will then enable others on here to offer you helpful advice and feedback and will also give your listing extra exposure! Also when is your sit due to start?
