Over here house and pet sitting business is not a lucrative one, due to the high rate in crimes, a lot of people even find it hard to trust others with their homes. But in other countries it is a lucrative business. For the year 2024, you can start up a house or pet sitting business. You would help your clients take care of their homes or pets while there are way for vacations or holidays and the likes.

In my home country, there is no existence of house sitting business. Some people hire people to look after the house when they are gone but this has not taken the shape of a business.

Pet sitting is not my cup of coffee and we do not have a pet dog at home only my pet cat TikTok. You also need to undergo training to become a pet sitter and get hired.

How sitting will be a good business idea to generate small amount of money, especially for those who have low source of income, but in my country per sitting business is not well known.

This is a good idea but its not a common one as most people do not really source out for home sitters especially here in my country.This kind of job is not some hard kind and could be done by anyone.

Pet owners can do the pet setting unless you have much money to pay for the pet owner. If you have time, you can train your pet with basics. Just be patient.

Yes in Nigeria this is not a common business, so I won't even advice anyone from Nigeria to go into this line of work, unless they already have a customer base or a target audience they are working with.

From the area that l reside, the issue concerning the pets is not taken with any seriousness l must say. So any corresponding business may not do well for that matter.

Yes, pet owners here prefer to do the sitting themselves, they prefer training their pets especially dogs and after getting it trained then there the rest is just not a big deal.

Pet sitting services could be seen in classified ads in my city and those homeowners having pets can call the person to do the home service and the pay is right.

Increasingly people are spending a lot of money on dogs and other expensive pets. When they go on a holiday or are not at home, they are willing to spend more for pet sitting services.

At present this sort of business is not very popular, at least in my city or even state but I guess in bigger cities its fine but still not at that level that it can generate good profits

It is also the same thing in my country. Although there are grooming shops in big cities.

Caring for pets can be rewarding, but its popularity dramatically depends on your location. In terms of house sitting, very few individuals engage in house sitting in this area. Instead, most people lock their homes when leaving for a business trip or vacation.

I also noticed this. It is impossible or very rare to let people have house sitting their houses. Even I would not avail this service if going to travel to another place.
