I had been registered with this website for two years without getting any housesitting jobs, there are just too many housesitters and not enough housesits available. I have been registered with a different housesitting website for the past year and get about 30% of my housesits through them, the rest through word of mouth. For homeowners I definitely recommend www.housecarers.com as they have a lot of candidates to choose from, but as a housesitter I would not recommend this site, especially considering the yearly fee one pays.

We were looking for local assignments (we live in New Zealand) and also for holiday accommodation overseas. Within a week of subscribing we had found our first house-sit and we have had a steady stream of Auckland-based sits ever since. Our next one starts in a week and we have two more lined up, taking us up to September of this year. We have also been in communication with two families in the UK with regard to sitting in the course of an overseas holiday. I find the noticeboard really good and easy to use; and for a very reasonable $45US per annum we have definitely had our money's worth.

Housecarers is a website linking potential housesitters with homeowners. I had a one-year membership. During that time, the website worked very well, giving me all the notifications I had requested.
