Want to stay in a large and beautiful mid-century modern home in Jeffersonville, PA, to care for an easygoing cat? We have the best of both worlds here: we live in a secluded, woodsy area near a bike/walking path along the Schuylkill River, yet we are only about 20 miles from Philly. We are quite close to a convenient train line to center city Philadelphia and New York. The house has lots of glass, with lovely views of neighbors’ gardens and some occasional wildlife, and it is all on one floor except for one guest room. If you are interested in gardening you can do some here—we have lots of flower and vegetable beds--but it’s not necessary, since we won’t be home until mid-October when things start to die back anyway.
The main component of this gig is caring for our cat, Otis, named after a blues guitar player. He is elderly (16) and easy to get along with. He does need some daily pills, which he does not mind taking as long as he gets his favorite treat right after. He will expect to be combed daily; he can go out during the day if he wants to but stays in after dark; he will sit on your lap while you read or watch TV; and he will probably want to sleep with you once you become familiar. If you are willing to care for our home and continue our pampered pet program, please contact us!
