Please follow these instructions carefully to be considered as a house sitter for Occupied House Sitters:

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ONLY NEED MORE SITTERS FOR DECEMBER AND JANUARY holidays, during the rest of the year we have enough sitters for the amount of bookings we receive.

WE DO SOMETIMES NEED MORE RETIRED PEOPLE TO HOUSE SIT AND PET SIT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
AS WELL AS SITTERS WHO WORK FROM HOME (not go out often) AND CAN BE AT THE CLIENT'S HOME ALL DAY AND NIGHT, WITH YOUR OWN LAPTOP AND OWN INTERNET CONNECTION (you will not be allowed to use the client's telephone / internet).

1. Please read our House Sitter Terms and Conditions in the main menu before sending your CV. If you are still interested you can send your CV and state in your e-mail that you agree with the terms and conditions.

You have to love animals, be a non-smoker and have your own transport.
Unfortunately only people over 23 years will be accepted.

2. List ALL areas that you are available to house sit in. I do a search for a specific area - and if you haven't listed that area, your e-mail will not show up in the results and therefore I would not be able to use you in that specific area.

3. If you are available the whole December and beginning of January, state this in your e-mail.

Please note: We require that you apply for a clearance certificate at a police station – which shows that you have no criminal record. (As soon as we have interviewed you and your application was successful you may apply for one). Only house sitters with clearance certificates will be allowed to house sit for Occupied House Sitters.

4. Attach a recent photo of you.

You will have to go for an interview to the Representative nearest to you, we will contact you with instructions if we want to interview you. An admin fee of R50 will be payable before the interview will commence.

Pensioners* will be interviewed at no cost. (*Proof will be required)

PS: Don't forget to list the areas in your e-mail (check spelling of suburbs – to prevent that your e-mail doesn’t show up on searches).

E-mail the above to petri @ occupied.co.za (remove spaces - it's only there to prevent SPAM)

Only applications with ALL the information supplied as requested above will be considered - and please note that if you don't hear from us, we are not looking for sitters at the moment, we may contact you another time when we do need more sitters.
