A comprehensive guide answering the most common questions about using Tryypa for pet owners and sitters.
You can absolutely attract great sitters without offering a car. The key is removing uncertainty: clearly say whether a car is needed, then share a simple “how to live here” plan for groceries, transit, vet access, and safe backups (pickup, bike, delivery, taxi numbers).
A smart sitter interview is not about “catching” someone. It is about reducing risk. Use a short video-call checklist to confirm who is coming, how they handle emergencies, and how they communicate. Watch for avoidance, vague answers, shifting stories, and pushing boundaries.
A great guest room for a pet sitter does not need to be fancy. It needs to be clean, comfortable, and easy to live in from the first 30 minutes after arrival.
Reviews aren’t just a “thank you note”. They are a safety tool, and they set expectations for the next sitter and the next owner.
One person’s “make yourself at home” means “help yourself to the pantry.” Another person’s “make yourself at home” means “please don’t touch anything in the freezer.”
Calm, predictable communication makes pet sitting smoother for everyone. Agree upfront on update frequency, format, and what counts as “urgent,” then use simple copy/paste templates for daily check-ins and emergencies.
If your neighborhood isn’t trendy, that is not a drawback. For the right sitter, it is the reason they will choose you. Nature-loving sitters are not looking for nightlife.
If you’ve ever taken a Zoom call while a dog dramatically sighs at your feet, congratulations: you’ve already met your most honest coworker. Working remotely while pet sitting can be the dream setup for digital nomads and flexible professionals.
When you walk into a new sit, you are not meeting “a dog.” You are meeting a nervous system, a history, and a set of habits. Some dogs greet you like you’re their long-lost best friend. Others need five minutes, one treat at a time, and zero pressure. Both are normal.
You’re not just choosing pet care. You’re choosing what your pet will experience while you’re away. House sitting can be the best-case scenario for many pets: familiar smells, familiar couch, familiar routine. But it’s not the right fit for every animal, every home, or every trip.
