If I don't have a pet, I just want someone to check on my house, bring in the mail, packages etc, can I still use your service?

Yes you can! You still get the benefit of a background checked sitter and can read all their reviews to determine how trustworthy they are. They may even lower their rate for this simplified service.

I definitely think that is okay! You may be able to find a certified sitter with even a background check to check in on your house. As Becky said, the sitter may even lower the rate!
