We need a house sitter

South Western Scotland - City of Glasgow

Nic

We are looking for someone to hang out with and take care of our cat, Jasper, in exchange for staying at our house on the edge of Glasgow city centre. I'm looking to see if I can find someone who can be flexible with dates which I appreciate might be a bit tricky,

We'll be away to help a relative with childcare after she has a medical procedure. It's nature means dates can't be exact. It's most likely we'll leave 4th or 5th June be away for a week. But both of those could shift a few days either side- we might leave sooner/later and be away a little less or more. We would be able to give you 5 days notice of us leaving and 2 days of us coming back. We're happy to cover any additional travel costs for you caused by last minute booking.

The house is spacious and comfy. It has three bedroom with one used as an office. We've got a driveway, if you need parking, and outdoors space if you get lucky with the weather. The area we're in is a quiet, safe residential area with the essentials nearby and the city centre in walking distance.

Jasper is a rescue and 3-4 years old. He warms to new people quickly and will be purring on your lap in no time. He playful and no hassle at all, apart from stealing your dinner if you leave it unattended! He gets stressed if he's on his own too much so needs someone who'd be in a fair bit- for example, I work from home but he is fine if we go out for the day at the weekend. He's on medication but it's liquid on his wet food so really easy.

Nic and Ester made us welcome when we arrived. They were good communicators and relaxed about leaving us with their very comfortable and spacious home. Jasper was so easy to look after and he was a friendly little fellow. The house is in a good area for exploring Glasgow on foot and we used the subway several times to get into the city centre. The co op shop is within easy walking distance too. Thank you Nic and Ester for trusting us to look after Jasper..

Jasper is absolute sweetness and an excellent companion. He follows around like a puppy and enjoys sitting with me while I read and eagerly participated in ‘nap time’ after I’d had a long walk exploring. He’s curious about what I might be eating, helped me with my crocheting, and made certain that I didn’t get lost anywhere in the house. An absolute sweetheart. Nic and Esther’s house is comfortable and easily located to city centre and interesting sights like the Southern Necropolis ... MORE

Had an amazing time looking after Jasper who was so cute and well behaved. The house is beautiful and has a central location with good connections. Good communication and clear instructions that helped as well.

This has been my first official sit via this site and in UK. Nic instructed me very well about Jasper's needs so I knew what to expect. Jasper made looking after him so easy. Being a rescue, he is a bit shy. As I stayed for a relatively short period, I did not expect him to build up a relationship with me; however, I was very touched when he came close to me on the second day already and seemed to enjoy (careful) cuddles. Jasper needs medication but he has no problems at all taking it. ... MORE
