Housesitting. Not Hotels.
Our Inspiration…Our User
“I CAN HAZ HOUSESITTING TOOL PLEASE”I travel a lot I prefer staying in apartments to staying in hotelsI hate imposing on friends I randomly learn that a friend is out of town and I have the opportunity to housesitI randomly learn that someone I trust is in Boston when I’m not and can get them to catsit/housesitI am always begging for housesitters.
There has to be a better way of getting this information in our world of interconnectedness.
I want an application that lets me announce to my friends when I’m out of town and my apartment is vacant or when I need a housesitter.
