How to build in planned plant watering and cleaning services during long stays

[Mary-Elizabeth4]

Hi, 

I'm new to hosting, and wanting to offer stays over a week, 30+ days.  I have many house plants that need to get watered at least on a weekly basis. I'd also like to schedule  a weekly cleaning service as part of the package, and to minimize cleaning at the end of the stay. I'd love to hear from people who have navigated this. 

Thanks,

B (aka Mary)

Hi @Mary-Elizabeth4 - thanks for posting!

You might get some local interest by finding a local group here - and maybe even some local recommendations for cleaning services etc.

I also found this post from a couple of years ago, which is worth a read through.

@Mary-Elizabeth4   When I used to offer long term stays, I had weekly cleaning as a part of the guest contract.  You can certainly offer weekly cleaning and have your cleaner also water your plants.  You just have to make sure that those items are clearly described in your advertising.
