About this house sitting position in Oak Park

Our comfortable 3 bedroom home has air-con and a garden front and back. The house has a back deck with BBQ for relaxing on, and a front balcony to watch sunsets with a distant view of the city. There is also a fishpond with resident fish, Bonnie.
We don't have a pool, but, there is a brand new community pool with a water slide nearby, plus there is a path at the bottom of the street to sports fields and a nice walking/bicycle path along either side of our local creek.
We would want a house sitter or sitters who will look after Ninja, our rescue cat and Bonnie, the fish, as well as water the garden and take in the mail while we are away. Someone who will show our little cat some attention and who is reliable, generally tidy and will clean up after themselves will be very much appreciated.
Ninja will want to be fed twice a day and her water topped up every now and then (she has a 3L gravity water feeder). She is not keen on being picked up very much, being a rescue cat, but she will climb up and snuggle you if you are sitting down and minding your own business. And she will guard you by sitting on your foot or curling up next to you on the couch. She loves it if you will play with her and her toys and will 'hint' by picking one up and placing it near you for playtime.
Bonnie the fish can catch her own food, so only wants to be fed once or twice a week, but she loves her fountain being switched on for a few hours during the day/ afternoon. It really helps for her water to be topped up with the hose if the weather has been hot.
For your accommodation, there's a guest room set up with a queen bed (linen & pillows provided), that looks out onto the back deck and garden. We provide this for any friends and family who come and stay, so be assured its a pleasant space.
It may be useful if you start a day or 2 early, just to settle in.
Thank you.
