How to Get Housesitter Jobs and Travel for FREE

[@ProjectUntethered]

Have you guys ever tried house sitting? If not, what's holding you back? 🐕

[@heracles1206]

How much is the normal hourly rate to ask for? I live in the U.S

[@ProjectUntethered]

@@heracles1206 Hey Matt, most of the time there is no pay involved. You get a free house to live in in exchange to look after the homeowner's pets. I've heard of some cases where the housesitter is paid (perhaps if there were a lot of extra responsibilities involved), but I think that is the exception rather than the rule. Each assignment can vary though - good luck!

I did watched your blog but i need help to get house sitter overseas. If you can send me agents blogs to help me thanks

[@princessmagwaza6506]

Okey thank you i get it now thanks

[@ProjectUntethered]

The first step is signing up for a housesitting platform like Trusted Housesitters (there are others as well). Then start applying for the listings you see. Keep in mind, if you need a visa to travel to a certain country, you need to take care of that as well - ideally beforehand

Oh my God George is adorable!! I love when Diane says," you've got to learn! I'm not going to be alive forever!". That's classic.

Just saw your house sitting video. It's a wonderful gig to have. Free accommodations but you do need to pay to get to the home owners location. I have saved thousands of dollars for free accommodations since I started. I started house sitting when a friend asked me to house sit for her back on May 2020. That gave me the idea. Now I am a member of Trusted House Sitters and House Sitters America. I landed my first one from House Sitters America as a backup for a week because the other person canceled. I house sat for the same owner twice since. I do long term, 2 weeks or more but occasionally I will house sit for at least one week when I am house sitting at the same state or city. Right now I am in Bethesda, Maryland for almost one month. You both are absolutely right, the main job for a house sitter is to care for the home owners pet and make sure they have a clean home to come home to. I have had great experiences in all of my house sitting gigs. Hopefully I'll be able to go international soon.

Wow that is so awesome! Let us know how it goes when you pull the trigger and take things abroad!

[@marycharleson3320]

I owned a petsitting business in my hometown from 2011-2020 I took care of livestock too.. You guys are great… Enjoy your journey in life and continue being adventurous..

[@ProjectUntethered]

Wow that sounds pretty awesome! How did you find clients that paid you to sit for them?

[@marycharleson3320]

@@ProjectUntethered I had flyers and posted them in high traffic areas like… dentist offices, veterinarian offices. And a Facebook page

[@ProjectUntethered]

Very interesting!

Ahm, you're a man not a kid. Use your brain isntead of doing things mindlessly and using it as an excuse to not do things in the kitchen. Your girlfriend or wife isn't your mom. She's literally telling you you need to start cooking. Men need to wake up cause women are waking up and will soon stop tolerating 'men' like these

[@ProjectUntethered]

We both have our jobs and share the responsibilities 🙂 but yeah, probably should practice more

Hi thanks

Those puppers are so cute!

They were indeed! Snuggling experts, too!

First we need to pay to the website before getting any work. Who will inform us ?

[@ProjectUntethered]

Most housesitting platforms work on a membership model where you pay an annual fee to have access to the housesitting opportunities. Normally, if you just land a minimum of one housesit per year and get free accommodation, you can easily pay off the cost of the membership and start saving. For example, our first housesit was for 7 days. An Airbnb in that neighborhood would have costed us nearly $1000, so we saved a ton. Trusted Housesitters has one of the more expensive plans, but they are also the most popular platform and have the most opportunities. I believe if you sign up with the link in my blog post (bit.ly/3fNyAsS), you should get a discount though.

[@Alyy4]

I got an offer but I’m in another country’s international to apply should the owner write a letter what should it look like ?

[@ProjectUntethered]

Hey Ali, I’m not exactly sure I understand your question - you got an offer to house sit in another country? what kind of letter are you talking about? Do you mean for a visa?

[@igorrosales1799]

Could you please recommend a housesitting paid $ website? I want to do this for living

[@ProjectUntethered]

I haven't personally done any paid gigs, but I know it's possible. I bet Google could point you in the right direction!
