A number of people have taken a look at our RV questions and our introduction thread.   As we are turning our wax tablet plan of retiring in 2017 to hit the road full time with our daughter with Down Syndrome, it has occurred to us that  house sitting for some periods could allow us more flexibility in our choice of a fiver.  It also is a seems like a nice safety valve for taking a few breaks a year from living in such close quarters.

Does anyone do occasional house sitting?   Is getting gigs as a house sitter difficult?   If anyone does this I would appreciate some input.
