About This House Sit

We are looking for someone we can trust to take care of our 5 beloved cat family and garden while we are away. They must be trustworthy and reliable. Ideally suited to a mature person or couple used to living in the country. We need someone from 18th of September until the 4th October but we can be flexible. The house is perfect for someone who loves cats, nature and quietness. Location is a quiet spot in the country but not remote. Our cosy casa is a 130year old traditional stone built Spanish finca heated by a cosy wood burner in the winter. If you are looking to experience Spain in it truest form, this is it. The house is rustic and modest with some renovations to be completed. The sitter will need to be respectful of our property, keeping it clean and tidy. The main responsibilities are caring for our much loved 5 very friendly easy going cat family which need feeding breakfast and evening meal, fresh water and giving them lots of cuddles and company. There are a few planted trees that need watering by hand. There others are on irrigation. Also potted plants on the patio that will need watering. As water is scarce in this area every drop counts, so the water is used from the washing machine to water as many of the plants as possible. We'd like the house to be kept clean and tidy during your stay. The house is situated in a peaceful spot in amongst the lemon and orange groves and surrounded by mountain views, the perfect place to relax. We do have wifi and freeview TV. The nearest town of Alhama de Murcia is a 10 minute drive away and 25 mins to the beaches and marina of Puerto Mazarron. Murcia International airport only 20 mins away. If you are interested in nature, bird watching, walking, cycling or just relaxing getting away from the hustle and bustle the area is perfect. There is plenty of room to park outside our house. We have 25,000 sq metres of land. You’re very welcome to bring your caravan or motorhome. The garden is in it’s infancy, but the are some good chill out spots to watch the sun go down with a glass of wine. Our house is rural, but not isolated. We like the simpler life, so there is no dishwasher, microwave or coffee machines. A car or clean driving licence is essential as we are not on a public transport route. If you aren’t arriving with your own vehicle, we do have a car available to use. It is an eco-friendly house with water saving policies. There are security cameras at the property, but only on the outside to protect the front and back doors. We are non-smoking vegetarians, living the dream. Please when replying to this advert tell me about yourself and what experience you have of looking after cats and garden. No, sorry.
