Hi. We are former sailors and have landed in this beautiful Island of Guanaja many years ago with our sailing boat. Once a year we are leaving and are looking for trusted housesitters for our pets and property.Guanaja is part of the Bay Islands of Honduras. It is the furthest east and the less developed.It would be an advantage if you are skilled in manual work. The energy system is solar and you should be aware when to reduce your consumption. Usually the system has enough power but you need to have an eye on it. The same goes for the water.We have installed a water system which purifies the water through a sand and UV filter plus one more filter under the kitchen sink. The water is stored in tanks and a pump will bring it up into the house. Here also you should have an eye on the system, even though we have installed pressure valves, it doesn't mean that they always can hold the strong pressure from the Municipal lines, specially when it is raining a lot.The work shop is well equippe read more
We have 2 cats and a dog who will need care while we travel for 3 weeks. We have a pool and live in a quiet neighborhood on conservation land with miles and miles of trails for exploring. Our dog can be reactive to other dogs and kids (he's a herding breed) so someone confident with dogs a must. read more
A caring person interested in enjoying Spring in a triplex on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, close to a major subway stop, supermarkets and Riverside Park. The apartment has a terrace, and usual amenities like high-speed wifi. We need our two very friendly female cats looked after (fed, litter cleaned daily, kept company.--one of the cats needs medication, which is not difficult to administer.--not a lot of work) and the potted plants on our terrace watered. You're welcome to use the terrace. Our apt. is in a small, friendly building and is cleaned weekly by our longstanding, completely self-sufficient cleaner (so that housework will be minimal). The building is a walkup, so negotiating stairs is required. Sitter should be experienced in and enjoy looking after cats, and be used to administering simple medication. read more
Hi all,
Looking for someone (couples ok) to look after our home in Co Cavan while we are at a wedding abroad for a week.
We have a seperate 2-bed cottage (which we normally rent on airbnb) which you can stay in, own sitting room, bathroom, kitchen also. The cottage is right beside the main house.
The main house is large and old so we just require someone to keep an eye on it and tend to the animals while we're gone. The animals are several cats, three donkeys and chickens.
We will be in the main house for the first day so you have plenty of time to learn the ropes!
Please contact me if you're interested and we can take things from there.
Many thanks read more

We also have a very smart kitty that loves attention. read more
We live in a 5000 square foot home on the water. We have two fish and four cats. There is no litter box - the cats go in and out for the bathroom (although we leave a window open for them during the day to do so). They are very independent and just need fresh food, water, and occasional snuggles/treats. The home is very comfortable with a nice kitchen to cook in, restaurants and a park a short walk away, and close to downtown Jacksonville (and other historic neighborhoods). We are eager to find a housesitter that will keep our home tidy and be careful with our animals. We also often have people working at the house on various projects -- housecleaning, home repair, yard work, etc. No one needs to be home for that but I like to give the heads up. The house would be yours for the summer -- again, we just want someone responsible who will keep it up. Our previous housesitters have been very young and aren't very good at keeping a tidy home. We pay in addition to staying at read more
