PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE RESPONDING.
Hello! I am looking for someone to care for my two cats while I am away. I am looking more for a woman since my cats are very afraid of males. (I have no idea why) All that is required is basic cat care- daily feeding, scooping the litter box and some sweeping since litter gets everywhere. My cats are indoor pets.It's best that I first describe who this would not be a good situation for. My apartment is not fancy so people who are used to staying in really nice homes with all the latest ammenities will not enjoy this place. My apartment is very old and rustic and is in an old converted house with 10 other units. It is downtown so there is constant noise (traffic, church bells, occasionally kids coming home from the bars). It is on the third floor and there is no elevator. I do have a television and DVD player but no cable or TV channels, I do have internet. This situation is best suited for one person, not a family. On the plus side my place is clean and quirky. I live walking distance to all the galleries, nightlife,resturants, an organic supermarket and awesome coffee shop. Really great opportunity for someone who is adventerous, self reliant and wants to check out Asheville. My room where you would be staying is all windows with great views of downtown. The apartment is old,clean and kept but nothing fancy. My cats are very shy and timid and you may not see them the whole time but if you are patient and love cats they will come around.
** Because of previous experiences despite my very descriptive posts I have to write this 1) Sorry-no couples,single person only (cats don't like males) 2) If you are allergic to cats please don't respond! They like to sometimes sleep on the bed that you would be sleeping in. 3) If you are messy (i.e. never do your dishes, take out garbage, won't sweep) not a good fit for my needs.
So if this interests anyone please contact me.I am extremly busy and may take a bit to get back to you, also due to the volume of responses I get I take this time to thank everyone in advance but will only be responding back to those who seem to be the best fit. Again thank you for reading this and your interest! (Sorry this is not a compensated situation just a mutually beneficial arrangement.)
Cheers! Rachel
