I was actually just telling a friend about this last week! He has the opportunity to slow travel all over the U.S. in his position and we were discussing how to cut back on accommodation costs. I’d already heard of trustedhousesitters so I shared that but I didn’t think to have him check facebook groups! That’s a great idea.

House sitting is a fantastic way to travel – we have sat in NZ, Wales, England and Australia and highly recommend it,

House sitting is not for me, but I like the comprehensive info you have put out there.

Good overview of housesitting as a way to save money on accommodations! One thing I worry about is something catastrophic happening (pet dying, house damage) and having to deal with that as a solo traveler. I know TrustedHousesitters has a helpline/emergency vet, but I’m not sure how helpful they’d actually be when/if something happens…

In reply to Monica. Glad to have brought this to your attention. I hope you consider trying it in the future as you will save loads on accommodation if you do.

In reply to Timpani. Not everybody does it but many do to save money while travelling. Sounds like I've inspired you!

I’ve never tried housesitting as a way to save money while traveling. But I feel like if I was traveling long term it’d be something I would look more into
