Catsitter wanted for Labour Weekend

Caitlin from Trentham

Hi Upper Hutt!

I've had a house/cat sitter for 20-23 October (Labour Weekend) unfortunately fall through so I'm looking for a catsitter to come and stay with my two rescue kitties, Maeve (black and white) and Luna (tabby). They grew up in a colony before being taken in by a cat rescue and are still pretty weary of people at first so any sitters must be willing and able to come and meet them and me before the sitting dates please.

I have a lovely 2 bedroom house in Trentham/Wallaceville, pretty close to Upper Hutt city (about a 20 min walk) and Wallaceville train station (a 10 minute walk).

Looking for a quiet non-smoking sitter, preferably a single person as that's what the cats are used to. They are shut inside at night and are pretty good at turning up for dinner (I shut the cat door before feeding them) or coming when their names are called or treat bags are shaken (if they're just having a really good time outside!).

Bonus if you can water and keep an eye on my (novice) gardening efforts, which will generally be feline supervised if they're still outside.

After Labour weekend, I do have a few more sets of potential dates for sitting, including at some point over the Xmas/holiday period, so finding someone willing to discuss/look at future sitting dates would be lovely for continuity.

Please message me if interested and available, as well as with any questions.

Thanks!

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
