Riverside Cat/House sitter wanted Early Dec | Christchurch, Canterbury

  • 29th November 2026 - 6th December 2026
  • 7 days

Description

Looking for a reliable person/s available over the Christmas break to enjoy a relaxing stay on the river.

This small home resides on the river bank, giving you direct access to the Heathcote River and walking trails. Perfect location, with a 30 second walk to the Woolston township for access to takeaways, dairies, fuel, Maccas and a New World!

We have a 5 year old cat who likes to think she’s pretty independent but loves calm, quiet human company. She’s used to her 4 year old human sister by now but wouldn’t enjoy having to share her space with anyone too high energy. She is easy to care for, only requires some fresh water, nuts topped up and a feed of meat at night. She has a cat door and will go toilet outside.

The house is set up for a small whānau, with games, books and an arts and crafts room. Perfect for someone keen to relax among the local bird life. There is no TV, but you are welcome to use our games and activities.

Being the time of year, it will be set up with some ‘tacky’ Christmas decorations to help spread some cheer.

It’s in a great location to all things fun in CHCH, a 10 minute bus ride either way to town or out to Sumner for a swim on the beach.
Dates can be slightly flexible. Reach out if you have questions or want more info.

Interior photos can be seen if serious
