Photo by Kelleys-Creations A great way to earn extra money is to housesit. You will make money and take pleasure in a free getaway.
Enjoy staying at someone else’s house. People that will want house sitters would mainly be those that are wealthy. For instance, doctors who may travel a lot due to work and/or family vacations. Your getaway to housesit will most likely be a very beautiful home.
While house sitting the customer may want you to water their plants; feed, water, walk and be a companion to their pet(s). You may want to add housecleaning to your service for an extra charge. You may choose what types of housecleaning you want to offer such as washing windows, basic housecleaning, laundry, wash floors, change bedding in all or some of the bedrooms, wash kitchen cabinets and baseboards for deep spring cleaning. This is a magnificent way to get even more customers interested in hiring you. Customers will have peace of mind knowing someone is in their home to keep it safe, water their plants, watch their pets, in addition to coming home to a sparkling clean home.
To get started ask friends and family members if you can housesit for them when they go on vacation. You will probably want to offer to housesit for free in exchange for excellent references.
Once you have acquired at least three references you can start to advertise. Make house sitting brochures on your computer with a catchy business name, your name and phone number. Make sure you advertise that you have excellent references.
Hand out brochures in wealthy neighborhoods. Put the brochure in people’s newspaper box, not mailbox. Ask to hang your brochure or business card in businesses of the affluent neighborhoods. You can send a personalized business e-mail to all of your friends and family. Ask your friends and family to please spread the word about your new house sitting business.
