The sitter should be preferably from Austin or nearby in Texas, a clean and orderly person, who loves cats and plants, and knows how to take care of them. I have a 3 yr old male cat named Priam. I have potted plants in the patio and on the ground in several areas in the back yard. They require manual watering. My house is large, has a swimming pool, and it is located in a nice area of town, 5 min. to UT campus. I'm a UT professor. The candidate must be available for personal, or phone interviewing. Good references are welcome.
