Two Young Female Maine Coons need house sitter
Introduction
Hi, I am Barbara and live in Kemp Town, Brighton and would be really happy to talk to people interested in sitting for my cats and see how it all pans out. So, about my place: Kemp Town is a colourful part of the city (Time Out recently placed it No 26 Coolest Neighbourhood in the world!) and my house is just two streets from the sea and a 20 minute walk to the centre of town. Local shops are a few minutes walk away. My two cats are pretty well adjusted and easy to look after so an easy gig!
Show more...Home & location
A terraced Victorian house, with 3 /4 beds and 2 bathrooms, a courtyard and an Aga - so that may take some getting used to! The village shops are very close by and include many bakers, a butchers, greengrocers and Boots - to name a few! So everything is on hand - including a pub opposite which in the 25+ years that i have lived here has never been a problem.
Show more...Responsibilities
The normal cat care duties - feeding, making sure water bowls are full with fresh water and daily clearing of the litter tray. In the summer, the plants in the courtyard will (hopefully if it is warm and sunny) need watering. Both cats are happy and content and are not very demanding, so should be easy to look after.

Housesitting for Barbara was a delightful experience, even given the difficulties of travel during COVID. As we were travelling from Portugal (our visa was up), she allowed us to quarantine at her house and even overlap our stay with her given the difficulties of planning specific dates. She is an attentive, friendly, and charming host! Izzy and Savvy were great fun. Savvy took a little longer to warm up, but once she did, she couldn't get enough cuddles. Both cats were mellow and comfy furballs who eventually let us groom their magnificent mane. The house was spacious yet cosy and Seva became an expert at the Aga. The house is just a three-minute walk to the beach and near many shops. Great neighborhood. A highly recommended sit!

I fell for the cats too! They are big beautiful fluffies, one of whom comically liked drinking from the tap and the other snuggling on my bed. Barbara not only very kindly selected me so that I could get my first official Trusted Housesitters review under my belt but also invited me to dinner and to stay the first night with them all so we could properly get to know each other. She also left me detailed written instructions. My room was beautiful and comfy, the house is in Kemptown just ten minutes walk to the beach with shops and a cosy pub nearby. Thanks again, Barbara for getting me on the official petsitting ladder!

Barbara is a very friendly, highly organised and welcoming host. She has a beautiful home in a fantastic location which made for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay made all the better due to easy to follow notes about the care of her cats and home. Her very beautiful cats are an absolute delight and whom we miss already. We very much recommend Barbara as a host and hope we can return in the future.
