the
SeniorSitters Ten-Point Plan
Security is one of the commonest reasons for
Homeowners to seek Housesitters, instead of leaving their properties empty when absent.
But there are ways in which security can be enhanced for the benefit of owners
and sitters alike, and thus avoid the debacle reported recently in the Perth,
WA, Sunday Times.

SeniorSitters
states repeatedly on this website, in our literature and at talks we give on
housesitting that it is absolutely and fundamentally important for Homeowners to check references given and
to confirm the identity of the sitters to whom they plan to entrust their
assets.
To enable Homeowners and Housesitters alike to understand
and appreciate important elements of security, we have developed the
SeniorSitters Ten-Point Security Plan.
Key elements of the Plan include Communication,
Identification, References, and so on, the objective being to ensure a mutually
trustful and harmonious relationship between Owner and Sitter, where both
parties respect and understand each other's rights and obligations.
The Plan is based on wide experience in both roles, and is
available free to SeniorSitters members as a Password-protected
download. Click
