Do House Sitters Get Paid?

We are a Community for House Sitters to advertise and match up with homeowners. Most House Sitters will Housesit for no charge - just rent free accommodation. They include travelers, retirees, and people looking to save a deposit for a home. This is a great benefit especially for long term Housesits.

Some countries have more Professional Sitters (especially UK). Unfortunately when Sitters start charging all sorts of laws kick-in. It is no longer just fellow citizens helping each other, with the sitter as a guest in the home. This is the main spirit of our site and We don't want to turn it into a job site.

Non-charging house sitters are a guest in their home, and there are no Visa or Business regulations issues. Once we charge for House Sitting we are now a business and need to have all our bases covered for operating a business in that location.

Many Sitters Housesit Internationally to save on travel costs. They are often prohibited by immigration laws to charge for House Sitting on a tourist visa. They are a guests in the foreign home. Some countries will even view House Sitting as non-paid work. That is why many sitter state on immigration forms, that they are visiting friends - which is true as they have established a friendship before they leave.

Travel expenses are normally covered by the sitter as the Homeowner can always choose a local.

For more information please select Guide at our home page.

Also bear in mind: Again:- if you are House Sitting in another country, on a travel visa your are prohibited to accept money. You must say you are a guest in the home when visiting the country - not house sitting.

Sample House Sitting Advertisements

About Us

Kelly is a retired Navy Chief and is a Manager for a high-tech company in Portland, OR. If you asked his employees what they would say about him, they would say that he is fair, consistent and sets clear expectations. Kelly is handy around the house and yard, so no worries about any surprises that may come up; he can handle it.

Dawn has been a nurse for 35 years. If you asked her employees what they would say about her, they would say that she is fair, honest, and a great communicator. She supervised Day Surgery at a hospital so she is well organized, can handle emergencies, and is dedicated.

As a couple, we are non-smoking, non-drinking, non-partiers, and love life. I don't want to say that we are homebodies, but we like to stay in a routine of getting up early, do chores (we also make extra money typing from home), and then settle in for the day by later afternoon. We enjoy each other's company, so we don't need to go out in the evenings to go to events or socialize.

Since we are retiring early, we are looking to book up our calendar so that we can have a place to lay our head each night. We love animals and would love having them be part of lives. We also like to run, walk, and go on hikes to stay active and welcome dogs to go with us.

Why We Want to House Sit

We are looking to travel around the United States to go to different areas to house sit and see the sites along the way. This will provide us opportunities to do some camping and hiking while we go from place to place.

We would like the houses that we care for to definitely be a non-smoking house. We also prefer it to have Wi-Fi, queen-size bed, and air conditioning.

Our Experience

We don't have any house sitting experience other than for ourselves.  We have owned our own homes for over 25 years and have had to do the obvious yard and garden maintenance along with interior upkeep and maintenance.

We are very clean people and you will be very pleased coming home to a nice clean house and upon request a pot a homemade chicken and bean soup (I make it weekly because we love it so much).

What Can We Bring to the Assignment?

As stated above, we can bring a lot of life experience. Kelly grew up with dogs, cats, chickens, and horses and then had his own dogs as an adult. I grew up with dogs and then had my own dogs as an adult. I had Cocker Spaniels and Miniature Schnauzers. My Cocker Spaniel had epilepsy, so I had to give him daily medication and when he had grand mal seizures, I had to start an IV and give him medication. One of my miniature schnauzers had cancer, so I had to give him IV fluids daily.

On a final note, if Kelly can run a manufacturing plant and I can run a hospital unit, we can take care of your house, pets, and yard.

Thank you for reading this,

Kelly and Dawn

We are a active, non-smoking professional couple.  I am a company director and my partner is a teacher.  We have owned properties and understand the value of caring for a home. We would like to housesit in the areaX area before buying in the area.

We love dogs and cats and have previously maintained a pool and garden.  We are willing to provide reference and bond when required.

I am a cheerful, independent and responsible single person that would be the perfect candidate to mind your house, pets and gardens in your absence. 

I recently relocated from Cityx to CityY and would love the responsibility of caring for your pets while I establish myself in CityY. I am extremely experienced at caring for house and garden and have had previous positions houseminding both short and long term.

I would be delighted to hear from you. References available.

We are a married, healthy retired couple both non smokers and are very keen gardeners.

We are keen to housesit in the AreaX of CityX to be close to family.

We have many personal references.  Being retired gives us lots of time to look after your home, garden and pets.

We are available now and look forward to discussing your requirements.

We are a couple with a young baby.

We are experienced with animals having always been brought up with pets.  I am currently on maternity leave and our drop in income has made it impossible for us to stay where we are. 

We are responsible people and are conscious of the care and security required to maintain a property. I will be able to give added security as I will be home during the day. I housesat extensively in CityX and can provide references.
