Description
I am currently in the initial stages of finding a house and pet sitter for my 20 week Police College period, the dates of which are yet to be confirmed. Listed dates are estimates only, awaiting set dates from Police recruitment.
My home is nothing fancy, a small 1970s granny flat with a decent sized fenced yard, and rather in need of new carpeting and other renovations and new furnishings. Professional cleaning will be arranged immediately prior to my leaving at my cost.
I’m looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter to care for a high-energy border collie X dog named Skye and timid but affectionate tortoiseshell cat named Tortilla. Care for the pets is the highest priority; if the sitter leaves prematurely they would be required to pay for kennel/cattery services if unable to find a trustworthy replacement sitter regardless of the circumstances. Short periods of leave less than a week may be arranged with a trusted neighbour with reasonable notice, but no more than a week. Acceptance of this listing represents a commitment to care for my pets for the entire 20 week duration.
Pet food will be provided by myself, and the sitter will be asked to pay for power and internet, but not rent. Vet services for illness and injury will be paid for by myself except in the instance where the sitter is directly responsible due to action or inaction.
