Tiere hüten | 1 Katze

I am looking for one or two cat lovers to take care of my precious cat while I'm away, with the possibility to stay longer if you are interested in sharing the house with me on and off in between my trips (more details below). Yoldjou (it means “the traveler” in Turkish) is a neutered male cat and very special to me. Since I live alone and work from home, he is used to having company and is not one of these independent cats – he acts more like a dog. He is a sweet pet and often goes outside, but he will ask for food and cuddles several times a day, so I am looking for someone who will interact with him often. Other responsibilities include sending me regular pictures and updates, cleaning the litter and checking on him if he’s gone for too long (which he very rarely does). Lock him inside at night and when you go out. He can stay alone for several hours. Even a whole day but only from time to time. Please only apply if you're ok with all that. // YOU: An animal lover who will respect my cat's routine and who ideally will spend …

Someone gentle who loves and understands cats and can tell when they are unwell or injured. Responsible, uncomplicated and self-reliant with some life experience. Also reasonably tidy. Previous petsitting experience and references preferred. I will request a proof of personal liability insurance for your stay.

Einzelheiten zu diesen Terminen

ONE MONTH SIT... I will be away for one month starting from around 10th May and I need my petsitter(s) to cover this minimum period. I would like you to arrive at least 3 days before I leave so that my shy cat can get used to you. During this time, we'll share my house and I’ll show you around the area on my free time. You will need to buy and cook your own food but we’ll still share a good meal and wine from time to time. ... WITH EXTENDED STAY POSSIBLE: I'm planning to go away at regular intervals in the forthcoming months, so I would be happy to host the right sitter(s) rent free for several months through the summer if you are ready to house-share with me on and off when I don't travel. We could coordinate so that you can take time away to explore France or Europe when I'm there (but you can also stay at home if you prefer!). You'll need to buy and cook your own food. I've lived in many flat-shares before and know how to respect people's space and privacy, as long as I get the same in return …

I am a rather anxious cat owner :) but quite uncomplicated otherwise. I am independent but I like a good chat and meeting people from different horizons and backgrounds. I love nature, animals, and keeping up with what’s going on in the world. I also like good music, films and series, comic books, art. And meaningful travelling, often as a petsitter myself.

Haus

A 3-bedroom house in the countryside, in a hamlet with neighbours, located 4 km from the small spa town of La Roche-Posay, 22 km from Chatellerault and 1 hour from Poitiers, both of which connect to Paris by train in 1 h 30. Simple but clean and comfy house with a brand-new bathroom. You will stay in a large bedroom on the ground floor, quite separate from the rest. Good unlimited internet, fast enough for Netflix and Zoom calls. You definitely need a car to live here as the nearest shop is 4 km away. It is best if you come with your own vehicle, but I could lend you my small car but at certain conditions.

Apart from the cat, all you need to do is keep the house clean, water the plants (a 5 min job) and perhaps mow the lawn once. You can garden as well if that’s something you enjoy.

Tourismus und Freizeit

Museum

La Roche-Posay is a small historical spa town with a weekly market, a supermarket, a couple of cafés and restaurants, a cinema (even a golf, a racetrack and a casino). It’s in a bucolic area south of the Loire valley with old villages, historical places, woods and rivers. You can go on free guided nature walks, go horse-riding, swim, cycle, take yoga classes or relax at the spa. Cultural activities are also organized throughout the summer. Please note that although the town and area are quite lively in the high season, this is the countryside, so best for people who enjoy nature, peace and quiet, and their own company. The locals are friendly and helpful but few people speak English.

Chancelade, France - September 2022

Dominique a été une home-sitter parfaite ! Douce et calme, elle a su très vite se faire accepter par nos animaux, débrouillarde et réactive elle s'est occupée de notre poule apprivoisée malade et lui a prodigué les soins nécessaires... Nous avons retrouvé notre maison impeccable. Nous la recommandons vivement, vous pouvez faire appel à elle en toute confiance !

Les Lilas, France - November 2021

Séjour parfait car je recevais régulièrement des nouvelles de mes chats ! De plus ce séjour s’est organisé à la dernière minute alors que j’étais déjà partie en vacances. Dominique s’est montrée très arrangeante et disponible. Je recommande vivement !
