We did that when John was in the hospital. We found a good friend (college student) and had her house sit. She had access to cable, computer, washer and dryer, my kitchen, etc... in exchange for puppy sitting.
It worked out great for us, and she had a few days without roommates. Plus, she got to play with a yorkie puppy! Who could ask for more than that?
In addition, our pet walker service also has a flat daily rate that is cheaper and includes four visits (I think), so you might ask.
