Pet sitter needed for our three cats and one turtle in our pond

Introduction

We are a family living near Düsseldorf, Germany, and we need someone to take care of our three cats and house when we travel. Our cats are very loving and affectionate and don't like to be alone too much, so the ideal person would be able to spend at least a few hours per day at home to give them some attention.

Wow, this was a real Christmas sit, including a beautiful tree! Carrie and her family are very nice and friendly people who live in a wonderful, comfortable and extremely tidy house. They adore their kitties and so I´ve sent pictures and messages regularly to make them sure Nala (who still suffered a bit from a leg surgery) and Cody were fine. Carrie is very well organized and she sent me a lot of informations in advance to make it easier for me to adjust to the home and the kitties routine. That in fact was very relaxed upon the second evening. Before they watched out timidly and made me feel just a bit guilty about the absence of their usual admirers. Then I was well tolerated, accepted and granted company on the sofa and cuddles which I happily replied. They are very lovely and calm furries and for sure great to sit in any time of the year though for me they´ll remain my "christmas cats". ;-))) Still wondering about the faith Carrie had leaving a stranger with these kitties and this house. Thanks again and I am happy if we´ll meet for another sit.

This house and pet sit was for me the first time I took care of 2 cats of which one was injured. She had just had an operation on one of her legs and had to rest. She also couldn't go out. This of course meant she wasn't her usual self and it affected her mate a little as well. Carrie and her family very kindly let me come a day earlier so I had some extra time to get to know everyone. Even though the sit was just a few days the cats and I had a lovely time and lots of rest. It is a lovely house to sit with a most beautiful garden with pond including turtle and frogs! And it was good to see that this great family had a well deserved and relaxed break. I'd come back to sit anytime!

In December 2016 we looked after the house and two cats from Carrie. Carrie and her husband were both very friendly and helpful. They explained everything carefully about the house, the cats and the surroundings. The house is in a lovely place, where you can find a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. It is also close to Dusseldorf, a very interesting city to visite. We cycled several times to Dusseldorf along the river Rhine; a beautiful route to cycle. The house was really clean and tidy and very pleasant to live in. There is also a nice garden and a fine kitchen to cook in, with all kitchenware available. The cats were really sweet and affectionate. We really enjoyed staying here and we highly recommend this to housesit!
