becoming a pet & property sitter
why not join our friendly team of sitters?
Due to the growing popularity of Pet & Property Sitters we require more sitters in Northern England.
We are looking for trustworthy, responsible people who are animal lovers. All our sitters are very capable people who are able to deal with many different locations and situations. Therefore flexibility is a key requirement.
Property sitting is an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Many of our sitters make firm friends with our clients and their pets. It allows the sitter to have a change of scene in pleasant surroundings. As well as the being paid, the sitter is also provided with a provisions' allowance and travelling expenses.
A sitter is expected to keep the client's property as clean and tidy as when he/she arrives and to care for the pets in a loving and responsible manner. Some clients may require the sitter to water house plants and outside tubs.
Some sitters like to take a partner with them to a property sit and most clients are happy with this arrangement. The sitter's partner will pay his/her own expenses and would not receive any wages.
Property sits last from two days to two months, but the average is 1 to 2 weeks. The sitter may refuse a property sit if the arrangements do not suit him/her.
Property sitting is a responsible position. We do our best to place a sitter with a client whose needs most nearly match his/her interests, therefore finding the sitter a property sit where they will have a pleasant and rewarding time.
Please note that in order to become a pet sitter you will need to own a car as many of the properties we care for are in isolated locations. You will also need a permenant home within our coverage area.
