plant-sitting
Tending absent neighbor's greenery
Plant-sitting is caring for someone's houseplants while they're away, parallel to babysitting or pet-sitting.
The plant-sitter waters, monitors light, and generally keeps the plants alive until the owner returns: Could you plant-sit for me while I'm in Europe?
