How to Build a Profile for Housesitting

You need to know how to find housesitting clients in order to reap the rewards of this exciting job. The first step for finding housesitting clients is by building a profile that will showcase your skills, experience and otherwise convince people to hire you.


 

Highlight Your Skills


What kind of skills do you bring to the table? These can be any skills that people may be looking for in a house sitter. Your skills should be the first thing in your profile, since it will detail specific things that you can do for the client and will help set you apart from other house sitters in the area.


Detail Your Experience


While you may have unique skills that a client will like, some people want someone who has experience. The good news is that your experience may also allow you to command a higher price. Aside from listing your experience, you should also include contact information for past clients, so that potential clients can contact them. Speaking with someone that you have worked with will give prospective clients peace of mind when deciding to hire you.


Tell People Why They Should Hire You


The last thing you should include in your housesitting profile is your closing argument: Why should someone hire you? This is where you sell yourself and your abilities to potential clients. This is the last thing they will read before exiting your profile and reading someone else’s profile, so make it good.
