We need a house sitter

Hill Country - Travis

KIMBERLY

2 bed/2 full bath modern 3-story home in the heart of Austin. We are traveling and need to have cat care for our very friendly, 1.5 year old, fully-indoor cat. Indoor potted plants will also need watering. Our house is in a great, walkable, location, just a mile or so from downtown in the very popular S. 1st/S. Congress area - steps to a ton of restaurants, coffee shops, ice cream, bakeries and retail. We have a primary bedroom on the 2nd floor with a king bed and a kid's bedroom on the 1st level with a twin bed. Full bath on each floor. Very modern/open home with 3 stories, a large screened in porch with outdoor couch/dining table and two roof decks. Home was designed by award-winning architect, MJ Neal. Super well-stocked kitchen with everything you'd need to prepare meals - or just great coffee; lots of light/large windows, super fast Google Fiber internet. Private or on-street parking for free. Families welcome, but note that we have only space for one child and two adults max. Note, we have a separate garage apartment over our detached garage at the rear of the property, in which our trusted/vetted handyman lives.

I had a wonderful time house and cat sitting for Kim. Maitake, the young kitty, was a joy to spend time and share space with. We shared lots of cuddles and playtime. Kim was friendly and easy to communicate with. She generously resolved a gap I had leading up to my house sit with her in Austin, which made the house sit doable. Kim lives in a comfortable and interesting house in a fantastic neighborhood in Austin. I absolutely loved my time there and I highly recommend house and pet sitting for ... MORE

Kimberly was nice and showed me how to work al appliances and front door lock. Maitake is a very loving cat, likes the screened in porch. The home is lovely and in a great location. Mary

Sit local, or anywhere

You can keep it close to home, or you can use house sitting as a way to travel on a shoestring. It's all good, and it starts here.
