North London home with garden - caring for 2 friendly, playful cats
Introduction
Hello, we are a family of three; Geneva, Richard and our daughter. We live in North London and are looking for someone to look after our two sweet cats, Lily and Ron. They are independent but miss company when we’re away, even when neighbours pop in regularly, so we’re looking for someone who can stay with them while we're away.
Show more...Home & location
Our home is a Victorian terrace house, in Cricklewood, North London. The house has a large living room/reception, a well-equipped kitchen with dining table, and a large and a smaller bedroom that can be used by house sitters. The kitchen and reception both have doors into the garden. No smoking or vaping in the house please. Cricklewood has a local park, supermarket, lots of small grocery shops, takeaways and cheap cafes. It is not a fancy part of London, but it has excellent transport options to take you into Central London. There are lots of local buses and tube options (Jubilee & Northern lines) and the local train station (10 min walk) is then a 12 min journey into Kings Cross. We are 2 miles away from Hampstead Heath - which is a great place to explore, see the animals, walk, run or swim. There are nice pubs, restaurants and a theatre/art house cinema in nearby Kilburn. Do let us know if you have any questions.

Our cats are (mostly) affectionate siblings. They are both a little shy initially. Lily is gentle and very sweet, once she trusts someone she loves to be stroked and will come and settle on your lap. Ron is quite a vocal cat, he likes to announce he has entered the room! And he is very, very affectionate and cuddly. He loves to sit with/on you! They are used to having people around most of the time (though you don't need to be tied to the house) so we'd love someone to stay while we're away, keep them company and give them some attention, as well as food, water and litter tray scooping. We tend to feed them little and often through the day, but it's ok to leave a larger amount if you're going out for awhile. They have a microchip cat flap and come and go frequently, though they usually stay close to home.

Geneva, Rick and their daughter were all very friendly and welcoming. Their place is well located and is a beautiful home. Ron and Lily are both very sweet and affectionate cats and were no trouble at all to look after. We would definitely cat sit for them again!

We had an amazing experience pet sitting for Geneva and Richard's adorable cats, Lily and Ron. Their house was cozy and welcoming, and the cats were extremely friendly and well-behaved. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed. Geneva and Richard were incredibly kind and helpful, and always willing to answer any questions or concerns we had. The cats were a joy to care for. They were playful and affectionate, we felt like we were taking care of our own Zorro. It was a pleasure spending time with them.
