We have two 12-year-old, strictly indoor cats, Barnum and Dexter who need looking after while we are away. Barnum (our domestic gray cat) is very very shy. Dexter,(our part Siamese)loves attention. He is blind but gets around the house just fine. We have a lovely two bedroom three bath, 1900 square foot townhouse in an adult community overlooking Morningstar Golf Course. The back of our townhouse is almost all glass so there is plenty of sunshine and non-stop views of tall green trees and mountains. Three flat screen TVs, and wi-fi, 7 golf courses within 20 minutes. Hiking, swimming, biking kayaking - all at your fingertips. We are looking for someone responsible who would love to visit our beautiful Vancouver island in the Parksville/Qualicum area. If we were to "rent" out our home, sans the responsibility of our cats the going rate would be approximately $1400/week but do not want to "rent" our house with all the complications and entitlements that come with that. It would be an exchange purely based on trust. No monetary compensation. Pictures of yourself and where you would be coming from would be most helpful. No children. Max 2 adults and no overnight guests. Responsibilities would include feeding the cats, cleaning their litterboxes and watering the plants. All other lawn care is taken care of. The important thing with us is trust and responsibility. We have used this service before with great success. Please reply with photos, where you would be traveling from and a little about yourself. You will definitely need a car.
