I hope you left a review for that bad experience.
My not so good experience : a woman who looked like me, sent me alerts asking what amenities i was using because her Bill is going high (although I was only there for 6 days). Asked me for pictures of her pet almost every 5 minutes " What is she doing now?", and on top of that her "Sweet Cat in the world " was extremely standoffish , I get it cats can be like that. I accidently knocked over a plant, and the woman said I used Bleach on her carpet , even though I used her Carpet cleaner, to clean up after , which I communicated right away. The sheets on the bed I was to sleep on were dusty and had blood stain on them, I had to use two of my sweatshirts for my when it was time to rest my head. Gnats or what we call in the caribbean "Sour Flies" were in the area where I slept and would come out in numbers at night during my rest, where I had to repeatedly wake up and ended having to make a natural remedy to keep them at bay, I also reached out to her to let her know and never got a response until my sit was over. Lots of information on the Welcome Guide, did not match what I was expected to do, and there was "miscommunication" because of that. Also, I was asked for my ID and a second proof of address right up front, which Is counter intuitive in my opinion being though TrustedHouseSitters platform does an extensive free background check. I saw the warning signs but thought , this person was so "holistic", I am sure to have a peaceful and serene time. I was wrong and I've learned my lesson: If it doesn't feel right at the beginning of a sit, you have a right to cancel, even if it is the day of.
My goodness 😮
Thank you for sharing. The collar story hurt my heart. In the future choke collars and all appartices that harm animals shall be against the law globally. Healing replaces harm and all animals will be seen with eyes that can see.
Thank you for this!
Really enjoyed your hearing your experience Stephanie. Very informative and gives good insight to what can happen while sitting l, thank you 😊❤💛💚
Love the video! Thanks for sharing.
Wow your like is so exciting . ❤️❤️❤️
do you house sit full time?
I really enjoyed the video. Im not sure if I could deal with folks pets. Lol
OMG my worst nightmare, also that owner is shady! Why wouldn't she tell you that the collar is a trigger for the dog??? That can be such a traumatic experience as a sitter. I'm annoyed on your behalf 😒 🙄 but also Fritz the 19 yr old incontinent dog was a hilarious story 🤣 😂
I’m going to get my first sit in August 2024!🙌🏾 I see it I celebrating it now!
I have been house/per sitting for 8 years. I am ready I'm considering going international. When is your next class.
I'm ggal I found you on line sister.
LMAO about that dog fritz. So funny. Your videos are fantastic.
😆 Fritz had me on edge! Thanks so much for watching. 💗I have a whole video about how I find house sits here: th-cam.com/video/_R57-OGcnWs/w-d-xo.html
I bet the dog was a pit bull mix. He might have had a fear about his neck because that’s where pits often bite each other during a fight. You grab his neck, he assumes the fight has begun. I’m glad he didn’t attack you. Please don’t pet sit pits and pit mixes. You can’t begin to imagine the horror of a pit bull mauling.
He was. I kind of stay away from them now. 💗
Yeah there's a story recently of a young girl going to pet sit and the two dogs pretty much ate her face off the second she walked through the door
Thank you so much for sharing this info! I've wanted to house and pet sit for some time now, but having a pet die on me has legit been a fear for me - lol
Hi Stephanie... I'm Sintra... I'm from Chicago... I'm a retired Civil Engineer...I've lived in Costa Rica for 9 years. Is your house sitting course still available? Thank you💋
What are your fees for house sitting?
Thanks for your honesty!
Thank YOU for watching Danii! 💗
Do you house sit frequently in the US? What states did you have the best experience and which ones you wouldn’t try again to come back?
Good to know about no reviews, but having sits, to be cautious.
That is sweet you prayed for that dog. lol awww
What do you do for health insurance? What happens if you get sick while you're traveling?
There is travel insurance for that.
There is global health insurance available
Have you booked a home that was dark n erie? Or found out while you were there that this place is off n i don't feel comfortable here?
No Salina. I would never! You get to see pics of the home on Trusted Housesitters and you also can check things out when you do a video call with the client. And I don't take referral house sits from someone who can't tell me what the house looks like. They have to have been in the home before to refer someone to me.
@@StephaniePerry ok thx cz I was wondering cz u just never know... Especially rich ppl 🤷🏽
Yes I have the pics didn’t reflect the current state of the house. Black candles dead flowers skulls halloween vibe in Feb. It was cold eerie.
Do they always have a pet?
Most do. There are house sits with no pets, but they’re usually like 2-3 months long. They’re definitely out there though.
Do they require you to allow the pets to sleep with you;
I turned down a house sit for that reason before. Nothing was wrong with the dog the owners said that the dog was accustomed to sleeping on that bed with them at night.
Amazing video
👋🏾 Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this information
You're welcome! Thanks for watching Sheresa! 💓
Love the info on flying out of the area for a cheaper place.
If a person does this for a living tho... Where would they keep they're belongings if not paying rent/storage?
Thank you
Do you get paid to house sit?
Very informative
Thanks Genise! 💗
Thank you for all this great content! I’m in the middle of a career transition having recently left a stressful corporate job and have the benefit of several months to ponder my next move. I had been informally house sitting for friends for years, but recently learned about TrustedHousesitters and signed up. I already have two gigs booked, including nine days in the heart of San Francisco! Have been dying to go back to SF, but as you noted, it’s terribly expensive so this is a wonderful opportunity which more than makes up for the TH fee!I’ve watched several of your videos and was very curious to hear about your worst experiences. While they definitely sound unpleasant, not as bad as I thought and I agree that the positives far outweigh the negatives! Again, thank you so much for posting all of this great information! I am subscribed! I have a channel too (all travel stuff) so if you want to share the love, check it out! Take care and safe travels! ❤
What about safety? How do you know you're going to a safe area, city, or neighborhood? How do you make sure no one is just gonna walk in on you? And, besides TH-cam, how do you make money while traveling?
Very helpful! Thanks for your sharing.
Thank you for sharing Stephanie ❤️🌳
Good question in the comments. How is it with homes that have cameras 🤔
Video showed in my recommendations, so now i would love to know more about house sitting. I could never house sit with pets, tho. I definitely don't want to care and clean up after people's animals.
this is great! do you have a video for people who have a house and are looking for a great house sitter?
Yeah I don't like big dog or mean one
How safe is it to housesit during the pandemic period? Are you afraid you might get sick while sitting? Do you have a backup house to go to if you can’t find another house to sit during a particular time?
LMAO Fritz said "Lemme in!"
Have you ever been in a house that was hunted
I like that the good out weighs the bad.
Wow You are courageous do glad all was well.
Thank you so much!
I'm new to hearing about this. My question is, If House Sitters don't pay, how do you make money to travel to your next destination?
Remote work.
Wow
how do you make money??? do you make money housesitting??
No she makes money from YT and coaching. She said you basically get free accommodations and sometimes a car.
If that’s the worse then it doesn’t seem so bad. I was expecting much worse.
Q: Do you require your clients to let neighbors know you’re coming? I wouldn’t want to be mistaken for a burglar.
On which other planets do you visit places?
@The Time is Now
Planets.. right.
Mars has open bookings soon🧐
