Free Pet Care Services With House Sitters

By Peter S Watson

When one decides to go away whether it is for business or pleasure, one of your first priorities is to organize a friend or family member to come and take care of your pets. If you will be away for a short period of time, this is usually not a problem, however the longer the period you will be away for the harder it is to get someone to take care of your pets like walking them, feeding, cleaning, playing etc.

If you plan on being away for longer than 1 week, you would almost certainly have to drop your pets of to a kennel, minder or pet resort (if you have dogs) which can be quite expensive. Another option is to hire the services of professional pet minders who will visit your house everyday to clean, walk and feed your pets or any other request you have. This all comes at a price!

As a pet owner you would be well aware of the stress involved when having to take your pets away from their homes. Placing your pets in unfamiliar territory along with an unfamiliar face is not the ideal situation.

The ideal situation would be to arrange a professional house sitter to manage not only your pets during your absence, but to also manage your property, lawns, gardens and mail while giving you the comfort and security you deserve and best of all it's FREE!

House sitters will complete all of the agreed tasks completely free of charge and all they require in return is free accommodation.

When selecting a house sitter, make sure you narrow your selected list down to at least 3. From there you can arrange to meet them at your home and get a feel for them and also see how they are around your pets. Usually your gut instinct will tell you if they are right for the job. Another good idea is to arrange a contract prior to them moving in with required duration, duties and also a bond.
