About this house sitting position in Colne

Hello and thanks for dropping by!
We're Paul & Pete, a professional home-working couple looking for a house and cat sitter. We don't want to put our furry fella into the cattery — it would be too stressful for him and us! We're ideally looking for home-workers or retirees who can spend plenty of time with Parker while we're away, as he's not used to being alone for more than a few hours at a time.
Parker is a Siamese, so he's quite vocal and will miaow when he wants something — or just for a cat chat! He's extremely energetic (in between snoozing and sleeping, of course) and will let you know when he wants to play. This usually involves chasing feathers on a stick, which he'll do with great enthusiasm until he flops in a heap for a well-earned snooze.
Parker thrives on love, attention, and plenty of playtime — he has bags of character and is also incredibly affectionate, loving nothing better than to snuggle up on your lap or join you in bed. Please be sure you're comfortable with a cat on your bed before applying!
He's an indoor cat with access to all rooms of the house (including bedrooms, but not bathrooms). You'll need to be comfortable with daily litter tray changes, and we do ask that Parker is kept strictly to his own diet — water only to drink, no treats, and no human food.

Our home is a four-bedroom Victorian house with office space, right on the edge of Colne town centre in eastern Lancashire. You'll have access to the whole house and a large rear yard — perfect for those sunny days — with parking directly outside. Everything you need for groceries is close by, and if you enjoy eating out, a drink, or live music, you're spoiled for choice — there's a great selection of restaurants, bars, and venues right on the doorstep, including the Muni, a brilliant live music and theatre venue just opposite the house. If you enjoy getting out into the countryside, you're in luck too: there are plenty of walks in and around the area, and Pendle Hill is just a short drive away. Read more...
