How to Find House Sitting Jobs

I have just posted my latest lens on squido0 called "How to Find House Sitting Jobs". If you are a recent retiree looking to live rent free and see parts of the country you have never seen, then getting a house sitting job is the perfect way to do it.

Essentially, you live rent free in a homeowners property and provide basic homeowner duties such as cleaning. lawn mowing, garbage removal, mail forwarding, landscaping and other basic duties. Sometimes extra chores or repairs will be paid with a stipend. I have rewired a heating element and thermostat and was paid extra for it, because it saved the homeowner about $90.00 from calling an electrician.

Many people travel the country doing house sitting jobs for the experience they may never have. House sitting listings may include a B&B in Vermont ski area; a cottage over looking the Oregon Coast; or a dude ranch in Wyoming.

Most House Sitting Jobs require the care of animals, so if you love pets, this will greatly help. Also, if can do basic handyman repairs, it will greatly enhance your chances of landing plum jobs.

With the popularity of the internet, there are many sites offering homeowners to list their openings for house sitting. Job seekers usually have to pay a small one time fee to access all the listings and then are able to apply directly to the homeowner. To jumpstart your house sitting search, visit
