Lady - 8 yrs old


My dog Lady suffers from seperation anxiety. I do not want to leave her home alone during the holidays and again in Feb, 2013. I travel often throughout the year and would like to use the same person if possible.

I have a modest, very quiet home that is perfect for anyone needing a place to relax and enjoy the peace. There is a screened in room in back perfect for enjoying a morning read or cup of coffee. The spare bedroom has a desk, window and lots of sunlight for those needing a home office.

Shopping, a mall, parks and all the conveniences are within 3 miles of my home, but you would never know it if you sat outside or in because it is so quiet in my neighborhood.

Pet sitter for 2 cats and retired sheep in Oregon Outback


We are looking for a woman who loves animals to live in our modern rural ranch home and keep an eye on our small flock of retired sheep and care for our two cats. Sorry guys, the cats are afraid of men and dogs. We live in the beautiful Oregon High Desert country where summers are relatively cool with low humidity and sunny. The town is small and friendly with lots of outdoor activities. It is peaceful and quiet with no neighbors and beautiful views of meadows and mountains. We are retired so dates are not fixed in stone and have leeway for sitter's schedule. No smokers, please.

Jack Russell lover to petsit and housesit


What I seek most is someone who truly loves dogs and has patience and kindness and love for a Jack Russell under his/her care. The ideal person doesn't mind having to spend much of the time with Jack, my lovable jack Russell with major separation anxiety. Seeking someone loves walking through central park with Jack and hanging out with a dog companion and wouldn't have the urge to leave him alone for hours. And of courses knows how to deal with this anxiety with kindness.

The apt is a duplex and has little backyard. Located in East 74th street. Needed 12/23 or so but definitely by 12/27. And through 1/6.

My boyfriend is leaving 12/23 so need help for jack during day and getting to know him while I am still in town but at work. Then I leave town 12/29 morning so need someone to take care of him while we are all gone through Jan 6.

So there would be an overlap of about a week while I am here to acclimate Jack. But you can have one of the three rooms in the duplex on different floor. (3 bedroom duplex with garden)

Thank you Jules O.

Unique Rural Home with Beautiful Views - Near Santa Fe


We are looking for a mature, reliable sitter (or couple) who loves animals to take care of our cats, an African Grey parrot and tropical fish and to care for our home. Being comfortable around parrots and cats is a must. The kitty (Charlotte) is mature and loving and would appreciate lots of reciprocal love and pets in the morning and evening. The new kitten (Nikki) is around 6-months, loving and quite adjusted to the house. Charlotte and Nikki mostly tolerate each other but are not buddies yet and have the occasional mild tussle. Nikki is mostly trained but is still learning how to be a cat as opposed to a kitten. Our parrot (Plato) needs lots of attention each day – talk, sing, whistle with him and he will become your buddy.

Obviously the feeding and cleaning chores for cats (boxes) and cages.

The fish need feeding each day and potentially some minor tank maintenance. We do have some plants indoors and vegetable and ornamental gardens outside. The outdoor gardens will need minimal work (fill the ponds and occasional watering if there is no moisture). The indoor plants need once a week watering. New Mexico is glorious all year, and the winter is no exception. We live on 10 acres in pinon/juniper hills with views of 3 mountain ranges from inside the house. Our home is 15 miles south of Santa Fe with easy access to Santa Fe and Albuquerque. You can hike from our house into the hills, or hike into several 10,000 foot mountains within 30 minutes. Santa Fe and Albuquerque are full of galleries and museums, several Indian pueblos are in close proximity as are historic ruins. There are also many visual and music opportunities around Santa Fe and Albuquerque. If the snows come (keep your fingers crossed), there is skiing both downhill and cross-country within easy days access. Our house is a great base for exploring northern New Mexico. Our home has 4000 feet of living space, a large atrium with plants, 3 patios and a complete exercise room. We have "reasonable" internet access (1.5MB), no land line so you need to rely on your cell (Verizon has the best coverage) and skype. Space can me made to park your car in the garage (you need your own vehicle). We have a cleaning guy who comes twice a month and will continue to do so while you are here.

We are looking for non-smokers and light alcohol use only. If you are not comfortable with cats and birds, this is not right for you. Also, no sitter pets please, the cats will not tolerate this and it could be problematic for the bird. Our house is not kid proof, nor can it be made so, thus children are likely not a good fit. No guests are allowed in the house without our prior approval. There is a mile and a half of dirt road to reach our house. It is not unheard of that the road can be very muddy if we are lucky enough to get a good rain, or impassible for a day or two if we get a good dump of snow.

We are not expecting to pay for a sitter. You will have full use of our home, internet and all utilities paid. If you are looking for a quiet place to move your personal project forward, or a base to day-trip in northern New Mexico, this may be your spot!

Pet sitter for my great dane and 2 cats


For the holidays I'm looking for a house sitter and a for the long term a chateau sitter. For the holidays you will be staying in a typical maison bourgeoise in northern Burgundy between Auxerre, Chablis and Troyes. You need to walk the great dane twice a day, although he can also go into our small garden. You can go along the Canal de Bourgogne. He is a very gentil dog and already retired. You also need to go daily to the chateau and check the building to see if everything is alright, need to hand over the keys and to guests who rented the guesthouse. From January to March I can also need a housesitter for the chateau. You need to have a car and don't mind dog hairs in the boot of the car. Of course the great dane needs to fit in your car.

Pet Sitter Needed for Two weeks in January 2013


I am looking for a House Sitter who really, really loves animals and has a strong knowledge of dog behavior. I have 6 cats...and a chihuahua they are all rescues. I live on 57th street in NYC between 9th and 10th Ave, very close to the theater district and central park. I am in a door man building. My apartment is a L shaped studio. My cats are very affectionate and I warn you may cuddle with you at night. There is one that is not so friendly, she was rescued from an abusive situation. My newest rescue is my dog I named Nubi who is about 8 pounds. He is special needs because he is emotionally unbalanced but if you can follow directions and are good with dogs you should not have a problem.. If there is a dog trainer, vet tech or a very experienced animal person that feels they can handle a chihuahua with issues you are the person I am looking for. He can be very sweet but can also be unpredictable. I have been trying to rehabilitate him. So if you are interested in spending a few weeks in NYC with 6 cats and a wacky Chihuahua please respond as soon as possible!

Samford Valley Acerage


Dates are approximate at this stage, late March to mid September 2013.

The property is best suited to a physically fit mature retired couple. 4 BR house on acreage (5 acres) in quiet and pleasant semi rural area in Samford Valley at 20Kms NW of Brisbane. City train 8kms at Ferny Grove, nearby Samford Village has all town facilities.

Two of the bedrooms are set up as an office and a hobby room, and there are two other bedrooms. The house is most suitable for a couple without children.

The house has tank water and dams and the sitter will need to maintain the area of grass around the house and in front garden with a ride on mower, water some gardens by hand and water orchard with irrigation system and bore pump. Most of the block is bushland and requires no maintenance.

Some practical ability to maintain pumps and the irrigation pipe system, and some interest in and knowledge of gardening is essential.

The sitter pre pays /internet local calls only included (about $70 P/Month and will need to retain the existing and broadband internet services from Netspace) and electricity,(approx $300/quarter) no other outgoings.

A cash prepayment of $1,000 is required at the time of signing of the written house sitting agreement to cover these costs, which will be adjusted to actual costs at completion of the sit.

Smokers will NOT be accepted. NO PETS.

A written house sitting agreement based broadly on the standard form from the Housecarers will be sent to short listed applicants, for discussion, as general agreement on the terms thereof is needed before proceeding to an interview for engagement.

It will be necessary for the prospective housitter to meet with us for an on site interview and inspection of the property before the end of December 2012.

The initial agreement will be for the 2013 season, and such an arrangement could conceivably be in effect for several years, for the right couple, if they have cared for the house and garden to a satisfactory standard during the first seasons housesit.

Preference will be given to applicants with an established track record of house sitting and written references are essential. Please provide an outline of references (with contact details) in your initial response to enable us to short list suitable applicants.

Spacious home near Rocky Mountain National Park


Our home is situated on 4 1/2 acres in Fort Collins, Colorado. We are within an hour's drive of Denver as well as Rocky Mountain National Park. We have 2 small dogs, 1 cat, a small pond and chickens. We enjoy our house, yard and view of the mountains and foothills, and are close to town for convenience. We desire house sitters who will care for our home and animals from January 23rd through February 10, 2013. As it will be winter, the weather may require outdoor maintenance such as keeping snow clear, so persons with good health and general maintenance skills are necessary. We would also want to do a 1 day orientation before we depart. Non-smokers only.

We live on the North Shore of Auckland about 3 minutes walk from the beach.

Pet and house sitter.


Kerrisdale is a lovely area. I live on the "prettiest street in the city." I have a small very friendly dog. People who have taken care of the house and dog have always enjoyed being here. 1/2 a block to transit. I will be in hospital for a few days and then home but will not be able to care for my dog for few weeks. I would like to have some here to look after my dog, not to take care of me.

Pet sitter needed for my two great cats!


I live in interesting and beautiful Flagstaff, Arizona at 7,000 ft. My house is comfortable, in a safe and friendly neighborhood and about 3 miles from town center. There is a bus service hourly at the end of my street (very close), excepting Saturdays and Sundays. I will be away visiting family for the holidays and would like someone to be in the house with my cats. I have friends who would gladly check in on them, but I like to have someone actually in the house with them. FYI, THERE WILL LIKELY BE SNOW DURING THIS TIME. I am fine with someone wanting to stay a couple days longer or coming some days earlier. Contact me if you would like to speak further.

Last minute change of plans


I know it is a long shot, but we had a last minute change of plans and now need a house sitter from Dec. 20th to Dec. 28th or 29th. We are looking for a couple or a man that wants to spend time in beautiful New Hampshire, does not charge, but enjoys exploring new places and not having to pay for a motel. This is just a housesit, we will bring Chief to Maine with us. Minimal housework (just clean up after yourself) bringing in the mail and the newspapers. There could be some shoveling/snow blowing if we should get a storm while we are gone. Our house is located in a great neighborhood and sits on a 1 acre lot. We are about 10 minutes from the Manchester airport and the Mall of New Hampshire.

Thanks! Darlene and Brian

Mature sitters required for 9 weeks in Toowoomba


We are again planning for our annual trek north and seeking reliable and mature house-sitters from 15 April to 21 June 2013at our home in Toowoomba, Queensland. We have a beautiful four-bedroom home on an acre of land on the western side of Toowoomba. We have a ten year old Sheltie (Phantom) and a twelve year old cat (Tendu) who both love a little bit of spoiling and are very friendly - just like our small neighbourhood.

The most important requirement for any prospective house-sitters, from our point of view, is that they have some experience with caring for a long-haired dog as Phantom does require regular brushing and we would prefer sitters who would be comfortable with that task. Our local area is still very green and we have our own tanks for use in the garden. There is a ride-on mower and our gardens are very easy-care with mostly flowering natives requiring little or no maintenance at that time of year. We have an in-ground solar-heated salt-water pool requiring no maintenance during our time away.

We have a very friendly neighbourhood with a small shopping complex just one km away and the centre of Toowoomba is just five kms. There is no public transport so your own vehicle would be needed.

We are about eighty mins. drive from Brisbane, and two hours from the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast.

Toowoomba is renowned for its beautiful gardens and there are many things to see and do around our region. Previous sitters have all enjoyed exploring our beautiful region.

There is space for anyone travelling with a van or trailer, but unfortunately, we are unable to accept sitters travelling with their own pet/s.

Please be aware that Toowoomba does experience some very cool nights during the winter period, but the days are mild and for the most part very rarely wet!

House & Pet Sit in ocean view home for Christmas


Beautiful Laguna Beach cottage home, up in the hills with view of the ocean, over Christmas: Dec 20 - 28

****We had posted this ad a month ago and had booked someone, but unfortunately they cancelled so need to find someone new ASAP!***

We have a beautiful open, airy cottage-style home in Laguna Beach along with a cute & playful indoor kitty named Panther! We need 1 or 2 people who can housesit and enjoy our home as their own for the holidays.

ABOUT OUR HOME: - On a very quiet street up on the hill - 1400 sq ft w ocean view from front deck & kitchen - Dark hardwood floors - Vaulted, beam ceilings w big skylights - Lots of natural light - Carved wood daybeds & cabinets from India and items from Thailand/Bali - Gas & natural wood fireplace - Stainless steel gas stove in kitchen, stainless fridge - Guest bedroom with luxury Queen-sized bed and organic bamboo bedding, huge skylight in room above bed to watch the stars and moon - Large private deck with white daybeds, abundant tropical plants, veggie and herb garden - Sacred altars, Buddha & Goddess statues, and crystal grids all over the home - High speed WiFi internet (bring a laptop) - NOTE: there is no TV (we download movies or shows online)

****My husband and I are both energy medicine practitioners (healers) so take great care to maintain a deeply restful, healing, and beautiful energy in our home. It's a wonderful space for meditation or yoga. We ask whoever stays here to rest and enjoy the beautiful energy and care for the property as their own. Use it as we do to relax, meditate, or connect with nature. ****

ABOUT THE AREA: Laguna Beach is well known for its beautiful beaches, turquoise waters, abundant galleries, shopping, and restaurants. December is usually warm and sunny here! Our home is less than a 4 min drive down the hill to be at the beach and all the restaurants, stores, galleries, etc.

ABOUT OUR KITTY: Panther is a small *indoor-only* cat who was a rescue. She is super loving, very vocal, and LOVES to play. She is great with strangers after the first few hours. She sleeps most of the day but is very active in the mornings and evenings. We have trained her to go on a leash outside on the patios, which she loves to do.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR: A wonderful, happy, low-key and trustworthy soul (or couple) who can enjoy our home for the wonderful energy that is here, while caring for our cat & plants.

You must be able to arrive early morning on the 20th before we leave, or ideally meet us the day PRIOR to get a tour of the home, meet Panther, etc. We return late evening on the 28th. Please contact us with a bit about you, references, etc.

STAY DETAILS: - Towels, linens, etc. will be provided, or you can bring your own. - You will need to stock your own groceries, but use of kitchen cooking items are provided (oils, seasonings, etc). - Our master bedroom is *not* to be used and will not be accessible.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Pet sitter for 2 cats and retired sheep in Oregon Outback


We are looking for someone who loves animals to live in our modern rural ranch home and keep an eye on our small flock of retired sheep and care for our two cats. We live in the beautiful Oregon High Desert country where summers are relatively cool with low humidity and sunny. The town is small and friendly with lots of outdoor activities. It is peaceful and quiet with no neighbors and beautiful views of meadows and mountains. We are retired so dates are not fixed in stone and have leeway for sitter's schedule. No smokers, please.

We're looking for someone to look after our two siamese cats, and the house, while we're away over Christmas. Blenheim is in the heart of Marlborough, the fantastic wine region at the top of the South Island. Good facilities in town (including a new swimming pool complex), access to the Sounds etc. Nelson & Kaikoura are about 1.5 hours drive away (in opposite directions).

The house is in the Blenheim township, located about 10 minutes walk from the Redwoodtown village (supermarket, doctors, pharmacy, bakery, 2 pubs, dairy, playgrounds etc).

Ours is a 3 bedroom home, with a modern kitchen & reasonable sized vege garden. One bedroom has a queen bed, one has 2 singles, and the third has a cot (although there's room for a airbed (which we have). Fold out sofa in the living room.

Families welcome. No smoking in the house.

Flat in Barcelona over Christmas!


Hi there world travelers! My husband & I are looking for someone to stay at our apartment for 10 days in December (20-30 Dec 2012) The apartment has 2+1 rooms, bath & toilet, kitchen, dining area & a small lounge. We have a 2 year old tabby cat (Charlie) and a few plants that need to be cared for while we're away. Our apartment is located right next to Parc Guell. Busses 24 & 92 run right outside the building complex which run regularly into the city center. The 'Alfons X' metro stop (yellow line 4) is a 10 min walk away. There's an excellent gym (11€ per entry), bars, restaurants and grocery stores all walking distance from our place. Our apartment has a fantastic view of Barcelona & would be a great place for anyone who would like to rest and relax. Behind the apartment complex is Parc de Carmel and is a busy little township which overlooks the South of Barcelona. There are many little walking paths & 'green' areas where we live and is perfect for those who love nature. We look forward to hearing from you! Best regards, Jo & Franck

View Housesit Details for #housesitting Apr 22, 2013 2 months total Fiji Savusavu 3kms from town Vanua Levu


We are looking for sitters for the period 22 April 2013 to 24 June 2013, (we have a couple to take over from then to Sept 24). We would like someone for the entire period or several couples who can take over from each other. We like people to come for a minimum of a month, and preferably not less than 6 weeks if possible. We are looking for an adaptable, adventurous couple (preferred) with sense of humour to housesit in Savusavu, Vanua Levu, Fiji. We have a small 2 bedroomed fully insect screened cottage, by the sea, 3kms from town. Swimming, snorkelling and kayaking across the road. Duties include giving TLC, food, and walks to our lovely dog Paddy, house cleaning, possibly cutting the grass around the house with a light mower and weeding and watering the vegie garden round the house. Heavy gardening is done by a gardener every 2-3 weeks. He is an interesting person from a Fijian village. Plenty of time to relax and enjoy this corner of Fiji. We need a fit and active person or couple, able to cope with 'island conditions' and not afraid of the unexpected. Broadband internet available, most of the time, as is city water and power, also most of the time. If you want wi-fi you can purchase a vodafone 'dongle' for use. You have to plug in for my internet, which is capped but extra time can be purchased (I never have). Savusavu has supermarkets, small cafes, 2 clubs and a varied expat population, and very friendly locals. 'Comfort' food not always available, not even McDonalds here! Plenty of fruit and vegies in season, and lots of small local cafes, as well as a couple of up-market ones. Cheap plentiful taxis or you can walk or bike to town. We would prefer someone for the full period. I have references from previous sitters, and can tell you more about Savusavu and living here. It is not a resort, its real life. We do ask for a small daily fee to cover all utilities which we prepay before we leave. April to September is winter, but the temperature rarely drops below 23C. It can still rain and be humid, and some will find it hot, better if you cant take humidity then its not for you. If you like the cold, sorry but its not for you either. We do not have air con but we do have fans. Savusavu has a good expat community, a Rotary Club, and interesting visiting yachtees from around the world. Most of all you need to be able to relax, read books, walk, visit, and not expect everything to be perfect. This is not a resort, its real life in a 3rd world country, that said, its also a pretty good life too! I have photos I can send should you be interested. If you are a person who has to be doing stuff all the time, this is not for you, you have to let go of all the hassles of the other world and be prepared to relax on 'fiji time' We have had many housesitters as we go away most years and they have all had a wonderful time. People with tropical experience would be preferred, but those with an open mind, good sense of humour, adaptable, and able to cope with the unexpected should apply. Thankyou.

Pet Sitter for easy care animals - quite but handy Christchurch location


We are off to stay with family in Auckland and need someone to stay in our cottage style house in Christchurch - handy to Riccarton Mall, shops, bars and restaurants.

Two easy care (come and go as they please) cats, a loving Jack Russell dog, turtle and gold fish. All you have to do for the small garden, is turn on the sprinklers.

Three bedrooms, two lounges, free-view TV, broadband.

Really comfortable - great holiday home and only 10 min walk to Mall or 10 min drive into CBD.

Very safe. No EQ damage.

Spend Xmas and New Year in an 1825 Pub in Tassie!


Hello, We are looking for a sitter (or a couple of sitters - or even a sitter familly!) to look after our heritage listed 1825 pub (now converted to a familly house) in the lovely village of Lewisham in southern Tasmania. The house is on of the oldest in Tassie and is steeped in history.

We are on five acres in total and are in a rural area. The village (with shop, servo and pub) is two mins away. Hobart is half an hour. Port Arthur, Richmond, the Tasman Peninsula and half the touristy things in Tassie are just down the road too. As for beaches, you'll be a bit spoilt for choice. Good boating and fishing too. The house has five bedrooms plus a sleep out (so feel free to invite guests for Crimbo). It also has an acre of formal gardens and veggie patches - so you'll have to be prepared to water the veggies, do a bit of weeding and mow a couple of small lawns. We also need a dog lover as we have a spaniel and a jack russell. They'd be grateful for the odd walk but are happy in the gardens. Oh, and we have twentyish chooks who need feeding. If you need to shoot off for a few days - no problem. A friend can step in for a few days whilst you're away. No bills or anything to pay. We just want to come back to a tidy house, happy pets aand a living veggie patch!

Our primary concern is loving care of our two dogs, some maintenance of our easy care garden and house security. Paddy is a 13 year old golden retriever who requires daily medication for his arthritis - a lovely gentle fellow and Piccolo (Pickle) is a 4 year old female Chihuahua X who is Paddy's special companion. Both are outside dogs. The house is 4 bedrooms and a study, 2 living areas and 3 bathrooms with a double garage that has internal access to the house. I have a longtime housekeeper who does the heavy cleaning once a fortnight. The garden is heavily mulched with some drippers and a ride-on mower is used for the lawns. The location is semi-rural, 45 km north of Melbourne with easy access to the centre of Melbourne by train. The train station is a few minutes drive from home. There is also easy freeway access to Melbourne.

Mid to long term house sitter in northern Spain


Hello,

I am planning on travelling abroad this coming year and a looking for a reliable house sitter for my cute attic in the Old Part of the city of Bilbao in northern Spain.

I am looking for a quiet, responsible person or couple. The attic is part of a secluded household right bang in the center of the town; it is a very special place. No pet care requirements. Photos available upon request.

Contact me if you are interested.

Thank you! Estibalitz

Two worlds in one


Ajijic (ah-hee-HEEK)in the state of Jalisco is one of the largest ex-pat retirement destinations. The biggest drawback: Everyone speaks English. The biggest bonus: Everyone speaks English. My home is two floors with about 2,300 sq ft. Two bedrooms and 3 baths. Big kitchen, dining room, living room and office. Yes, I have a maid. There is an outdoor sitting area that looks over a large garden. Yes, I have a gardener. I may be Mexico but I have American satellite TV and high speed internet (wi-fi). A quiet rural setting 7 minutes to town with a bus stop 2 blocks away. The house needs very little attention but my cat, Foxy, is a love bug and needs to be the focus of attention occasionally during a day. He gets very vocal if he gets ignored. This Mexican village sits on the edge of Lake Chapala and is famous for having the world's best climate. There are so many gringos here we have a club or group for just about any activity you can think of. But it is still very Mexican with caballeros riding horses on the streets and early morning fishermen out on the lake in their little boats bringing in their daily catch. It truly is the best of two worlds, the USA and Mexico in one place.

Thank you for your excellent site, takes the worry out of going away. This was the first time we had used the site so were a little bit apprehensive! Recently we went away for a week & had House Sitters Wildtui  look after our home & chickens while we were away. 
They were a very efficient & friendly couple, left the house extremely clean & tidy & did all that was asked of them. We would certainly without hesitation recommend them & have them stay again. Thanks all. .. Tony (pipi40)

We are looking for a house sitter to care for our 18 month old cattle dog puppy and to water our pot plants. We live in a great location just 5-6 mins drive from the Brisbane CBD, 3 mins walk to a large parkland area with a creek and sporting grounds.

We live in a 'Queenslander'/colonial style home with large front and back decks, with a hammock and a BBQ to relax with. We have a small backyard which requires very little maintenance.

Short walking distance from our house are cafes, liquor store, bakery, newsagent, post office and some fantastic restaurants including mexican, thai, japanese, chinese and indian foods.

Our house is an ideal place from which to explore Brisbane and the surrounding areas. The beautiful beaches at the sunshine coast and gold coast are only a 1 hour drive away north and south from here, as well as the mountains great for walking in the sunshine and gold coast hinterlands (e.g. Mount Tambourine, Lamington National Park or Maleny/Montville).

House sitter/s for Davidson Sydney with dog, cat & a few others!


We have a comfortable 4 bed family home in a nice suburb close to the northern beaches, Chatswood (both 10 mins away) and city 25 mins. Bus stop at end of street, but car more convenient to get to shops etc. One large dog, Australian Shepherd, very gentle but needs regular excercise, one cat,two chickens and a Guinea Pig so would suit active person/people strong enough to handle a large dog and who understands and loves animals. As such, will not suit someone working full time or who intends to be away from house all day. Lovely pool & small garden need very basic maintenance.

House and pet sitter needed for our 2 little dogs and cat for 2.5 weeks in mid Jan. 2013


We are a Christian couple that live in a semi-large home. Our home is located in a newer subdivision in West Abbotsford, close to Aldergrove. We have 2 small dogs and a cat. The cat takes care of herself, but the pups require people with lots of love because they love people!!! The house/pet sitter(s) will have to be ok with sharing the bed with both of my babies. Sorry, it's what we do! :) They love walks, but it's not necessary as they love to run in the fenced yard as well. We have a hot tub for your use. We also have a housekeeper that comes once every 2 weeks, so as long as the house is kept tidy, the rest will be taken care of.

Pet care needed for two dogs and two cats


House in forest. We have two dogs (Maggie and Blue). Maggie is a yellow lab (9)and Blue is a small mix dog - both are well trained and quiet (even the lab). They take two (ideally) supervised walks off leash on a path in the woods. We have two neighbors down the lane. We also have two cats: Tristan and Tess who are inside/outside cats. They have a cat door; no litter boxes to clean. There is a fenced in backyard (very very big). We are less than an hour from a plethora of potters and artisans ..there are lakes to visit, state parks to explore, historical sites to ponder, and small towns to poke around (Mebane, Pittsboro as well as Durham, Raleigh, Chapel Hill). Three major universities are close by: Duke University, University of NC-Chapel Hill, NC State. We are Duke fans.There is a dog/cat door for easy entrance/exit to the house into a fence-in backyard. We have cable,DVD, big flat screen TV, Wi-Fi, bookshelves full of books ... lots of windows and light. Place is in the woods & private but very close to shopping (less than 2 miles) and two neighbors (sisters). You can come in the evening before to meet and greet. We will return midafternoon on April 30. You are welcome to spend the night and leave in the morning.

We are leaving during one of the most spectacular times in NC...lots of flowering bushes, leaves are out in a spring green, weather is mild, no flying insects (we do have ticks during this time), and plenty of sunshine. We hate to leave as well, but travel calls and travel is paramount at this stage of our lives. We hope you'll enjoy the stay with our "kids".

House & dog sitter(s)


Visiting family for the holidays and hope to keep my two small dogs at home. Austin is a 10-year- old, 18-pound miniature poodle with special dietary needs and Izzie is 4-year-old, 25-pound terrier/heeler mix who only wants to be outside to chase cats. They are both adopted from the shelter, so they have abandonment anxiety that would be largely alleviated by staying at home. They are used to walking daily, usually a mile. Sorry, they are not very good with other dogs or other animals.

My house is not elegant, just comfy -- a two- bedroom/one bath with a large walled back yard. It is located centrally in a safe neighborhood close to downtown, campus, and the interstate; it's an hour's drive to Santa Fe. I have Direct TV (no special package) and wireless internet (adequate most of the time, but watch out for peak hours).

I would be willing to consider paying for the dog- sitting service -- contact me and we can talk.

House sitter and pet companion needed for two weeks in January 2012


Hi there,

My partner and I live in a very comfortable farmhouse on a quiet country road. We have a cuddly dog, Chester, and we are hoping to find someone who will keep him company while we are away for two weeks this January. He lies around a lot and can take himself for walks in the back field, though he also enjoys going for jogs and hikes and is perfectly behaved on a leash.

The house has a very positive feeling from room to room. It has been well-loved over its many years. There are trails all around, for snow-shoeing and x-skiing, a horse ranch right down the road, and a river just across the street. The situation here is private and scenic--ideal for decompressing or creative work. We don't have a television, but we do have wireless internet and a lot of books. The place is heated with forced air from an oil furnace, and we are located ten minutes to the nearest town of Baddeck, where there is a grocery store, coffee shop, gas station, etc..

Seeking cat lover to care for peaceful mountain home


I'm looking for a house sitter to care for my two indoor-outdoor cats for ten weeks this winter, January 20 to March 30, 2013. The dates can be a bit flexible. This is a comfortable modern home on 7 acres of forested land on the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains in southern Alberta. It is near the ski area of Castle Mountain Ski Resort, and about an hour's drive from Fernie, BC. There is excellent cross-country skiing in the area. My 2 cats need to be fed and have their litter box cleaned; other than some petting, nothing else is required as there is a cat door allowing them to come and go as they please. This place is ideal for someone who loves peace and quiet in beautiful, natural surroundings. The house has wi-fi, satellite TV, a fireplace, a piano, and room for one vehicle in the garage. In addition to pet care, the sitter may need to have the driveway plowed, and perhaps have water delivered ( details on request).

Pet Sitter in Dallas Area


Looking for a CAT LOVER in the Dallas area who would be available to care for 3 cats and house sit. My primary concern is the well being of the cats, who like daily interaction with humans. Care for the house would be minimal including watering some plants and scooping litter box; the lawn has a sprinkler system and is mowed by a service. The house is located in north Dallas near the Tollway. It is within walking distance to stores, restaurants, movies and Starbucks. The house also has wireless internet and cable TV.

I am looking for someone in the Dallas area who is dependable, non-smoking and clean. You will need your own vehicle. If you think this might be a good fit, please email me and I will respond quickly.

Thank you.

Come and enjoy winter in cottage country & pet sit for 10 days


We are looking for a house-sitter for 10 days in February while we take vacation. We have a 6 yr old black lab called Holly and a 6 yr old beagle called Maya. They are friendly dogs - both love people and are not high maintenance. We have a large house on the Crowe River - 45 minutes east of Peterborough just north of Hwy 7. We also run a small office in the basement of our home and have two staff who will come into work weekdays while we are away. The office is quiet and self-contained so the rest of the lower floor can be used - TV room and fitness suite, while the two ladies are in the office. There is also a cleaning lady who comes in once a week to keep the place tidy.

All we want is someone to take care of the dogs, take them for a daily walk and keep them company.

This will suit a single person or couple looking for a quiet, rural location with good technology - hi speed internet, satellite TV, a hot tub and fitness suite

Spend Xmas and New Year in an 1825 Pub in Tassie!


Hello, We are looking for a sitter (or a couple of sitters - or even a sitter familly!) to look after our heritage listed 1825 pub (now converted to a familly house) in the lovely village of Lewisham in southern Tasmania. The house is on of the oldest in Tassie and is steeped in history.

We are on five acres in total and are in a rural area. The village (with shop, servo and pub) is two mins away. Hobart is half an hour. Port Arthur, Richmond, the Tasman Peninsula and half the touristy things in Tassie are just down the road too. As for beaches, you'll be a bit spoilt for choice. Good boating and fishing too. The house has five bedrooms plus a sleep out (so feel free to invite guests for Crimbo). It also has an acre of formal gardens and veggie patches - so you'll have to be prepared to water the veggies, do a bit of weeding and mow a couple of small lawns. We also need a dog lover as we have a spaniel and a jack russell. They'd be grateful for the odd walk but are happy in the gardens. Oh, and we have twentyish chooks who need feeding. If you need to shoot off for a few days - no problem. A friend can step in for a few days whilst you're away. No bills or anything to pay. We just want to come back to a tidy house, happy pets aand a living veggie patch!
