We need a house sitter

Caitlin

Kia ora, I'm looking for someone to stay with my cats while I'm away.

Preferably a single female or quiet couple as my cats are rescues and can be skittish.

My cats are Maeve (black and white) and Luna (tabby/tortie) and originally came from a feral colony then a cat rescue. They are generally friendly although do not like loud noises like heavy rain, thunderstorms, fireworks and lawnmowers. They have a microchip cat door with outside access unrestricted during the day and are locked in at night (approximately pm to 6am depending somewhat on when it gets light/dark).

They quite enjoy sleeping on a human-occupied bed so am looking for someone to at minimum spend evenings and overnight time with them (though they are content to have people around during the day as well) especially to ensure they don't get up to too much mischief! 

I have a small ish garden that could also use some watering please and there may be some pickable produce you're welcome to while I'm away.

Must be a non-smoker and no parties or big drinking sessions etc as my cats are not fans of too much noise. Also a sitter needs to be available and willing to meet me and the cats in person before the sitting dates (particularly because my cats can get very skittish about unfamiliar people).

Please message me if interested and available, as well as with any questions.

Thanks!

This was a delightful housesitting experience! We really loved the cats, Luna and Maeve, who were very sweet and friendly even though they were a little shy at first. The house was a cosy haven, giving us with a wonderful little getaway. The guest room was thoughtfully prepared, making us feel truly welcome as soon as we arrived. The owner communicated with us really well so we felt very at ease knowing we could reach out anytime. A lovely, comfortable experience!
