About this house sitting position in Altona Meadows

Hello! I'm looking for a trustworthy, cat-loving individual to care for my 3 adorable tabbies for a weekend.

My preference is for a woman because one of my cats is a tad sexist, but happy to consider men.

About my cats:
My tabby crew consists of Tifa (F, 16 years old), Squizzy (M, 11 years old), and Daisy (F, 7 years old). All are desexed, sweet natured, fairly independent, indoor/outdoor cats. They prefer to toilet outside, so there is little litter box cleaning involved.

Being an older lady, Tifa does have some special needs which includes being given medication twice a day (it's liquid and she takes it easily). She DEMANDS many cuddles.

Squizzy is the gentlest man in the world, but he's skittish with new people and isn't a fan of men. He usually comes around when women cat sit, but likely will give any men stink eye the whole time I'm gone.

Daisy is just a big fluffy ball of love. She doesn't initiate cuddles but loves getting pats and attention. She loves her treats and playing in her tunnel.

Your Responsibilities:
- Keeping them fed (dry and wet food)
- Offering some playtime and companionship to keep them happy and engaged
- Scooping out wee from the litter box if it gets used
- Ensuring the house is secure and the cats are safe

Dates Needed:
Friday 4 September to Sunday 6 September

Note: if you're looking for a slightly longer stay that's something we can discuss.

About the House:
I live in Altona Meadows, in a lovely 2 bedroom villa that's close to Skeleton Creek (for your nature needs) and Central West Plaza (for amenities). Laverton station is easily accessible via bus or car or a 20 minute walk. It's a quiet and safe area with with lots of parkland and beaches to explore just a short drive away.

The main bedroom has a very comfy queen bed. The second bedroom is set up as an office but can be made into a bedroom and also has an extremely comfy king single.

Why You'll Love It:
If you're a cat lover, this is a great opportunity to enjoy some peaceful time surrounded by friendly cats! Tifa is particularly fond of a snuggle, while Squizzy enjoys belly rubs and Daisy is the most playful. You'll have a great time with them all!

I provide a detailed guide that outlines their needs and quirks.

I'm happy to provide more details or answer any question you might have. Read more...
