What are farm sitting jobs?

Farm sitting jobs involve looking after animals and crops while the owners are away or unable to work. In this role, you take over the majority of the responsibilities usually done by the farmer, which may include feeding and watering the animals, cleaning a farmhouse or barn, letting animals out for exercise and corralling them back home, and grooming farmyard pets. The daily responsibilities of a farm sitting job vary by the type of farm you work on; some may involve milking cows, while others may include exercising horses, shearing sheep, or monitoring automatic irrigation systems. You may also need to document the completed tasks and provide the owner with regular updates.
