There are so many benefits to becoming a house and pet sitter and 2015 may be your year to start taking advantage of some of the financial and lifestyle benefits.
Here are our top 5 reasons why you should start house and pet sitting this year.
- Live rent free!
Why pay rent when you can live rent free as a house and pet sitter. Save your rent money for some other personal goals and stay in established homes with all the comforts and conveniences that you need. - Experience something new
House and pet sitting in different homes, in different suburbs, in different states can give you a new appreciation of the lives of others. Try house and pet sitting for a chance to step out of your comfort zone to experience a different way of life or meet new animal friends. - Enjoy the company of animals
If you’re an animal lover and aren’t able to have one of your own because of work or time pressures, then house and pet sitting could be a great way for you to be a part time pet parent. Caring for domestic animals or even farm and rural animals could be your way to connect with four legged, furry and feathery friends. - Live like a local
If you’re looking to move, but not quite sure where you want to settle, then house and pet sitting gives you the opportunity to live like a local in a variety of different suburbs until you’ve found what suits your lifestyle. It is a very cost effective way of trialling different suburbs without a long term rental commitment. - Enjoy a holiday
Whether you’re planning an extended holiday or short break away, house and pet sitting can offer free accommodation at the location of your choice. So long as you are organised and book in advance, you could enjoy your ideal holiday – even during peak seasons – without paying a cent in accommodation.
