House & Pet Sitting: Travel the World with Free Accommodations

By Sally Pederson

Discover how you can travel around the world without paying for accommodations. House-sitting and pet-sitting is a win-win situation for home/pet owners and people that love pets and love to travel. In this book, you will learn how you can travel to various destinations all over the world and stay in someone else’s homes while you take care of the homeowner’s pets’ nutritional, grooming, and exercise requirements. This gives the home/pet owner peace of mind that their loved fur-babies and being taken great care of as well as their home is secure. Not having to pay for a hotel room and having use of a full kitchen with everything you need to cook with, makes travel more affordable. Everything you need to know about how to get started is in this book. I have written about how I have traveled to more than 5 countries and saved over $50,000 in accommodation expenses.
