About this assignment
Mainly someone to take care of my house and gorgeous kitties - 1 female Norwegian Forest Cat (10 month old kitten) and a rescue (2 1/2 year old male mostly Maine Coon) while enjoying the lovely town of Fort Collins, CO and surrounding area. (I moved from Petaluma, CA three years ago, where other sitters have sat for me)
If you're respectful, responsible and caring, and love cats, then I'm sure we can work something out!
What responsibilities are required of the house sitter
Mostly taking care of the cats - feeding (raw food diet) and emptying the cat litter. Collecting mail, perhaps a little garden watering, putting out the garbage, etc. Generally taking care of things while enjoying the house.
What are the good features of the property and location
A "homey" house. Large back yard/garden with gas grill and hangout area for enjoyment. Parking not a problem, laundry in the garage. Close to Old Town for area access, shops and restaurants, in a quiet neighborhood. 10 min from Poudre River Valley, 1 hour from Boulder, Denver, and Estes Park/Rocky Mt National Park. So much to explore with the Rockies in your back yard!
I'm a 2 min stroll from a beautiful lake that, technically, isn't supposed to used by visitors...but people here are very friendly, and if you're respectful, it's likely not an issue to walk on the trail around the lake and enjoy it. (But no boat access)
Hi speed internet, quality multimedia, nice kitchen, king size bed, all the comforts of home!
What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment
House sitter needs to be responsible and considerate, and be able to take care of (and play with) the cats who eat a raw food diet and need to be fed twice a day reasonably on schedule - It's an ideal place if you're the ideal person ???
Can I bring my own pets?
No, sorry.

Positive sit in a lovely area!
This was a positive sit for a very nice person in a pretty city (town?) w/lots of hiking available. Adam was clear & communicative throughout my weeks in his home while he was away. There were clear instructions, and the cats were incredibly chill! They behaved mostly how he described, and clear instructions were left to care for things. The house is nice-not spick and span clean, but not messy. There is a piano available in the living room area if you play. The sound system/TV worked well. I couldn't master the robovacuum, unfortunately. Overall a positive stay, and I am glad to have been entrusted with the care of Adam's home and pets. Nice location and space.

Two sweet cats and very friendly human
I sat for Adam numerous times when he lived in California. His two cats, Viola and Harmony, are independent, calm, and affectionate. Adam leaves detailed housesit instructions — with images! — and is available to answer any questions or concerns. I miss sitting for him and his sweet kitties!

Fantastic cats and home!
We sat for Adam twice and each time was an awesome experience! His fur babies are really well-behaved and the backyard has lots of space for them to roam. While free-spirits, Harmony and Viola are are also big on affection and curled up with us at nights for long snuggle sessions after a full day of outdoor lounging/adventures. We felt completely at home in Adam's and inspired by the relaxed and eclectic space he's created. We'd gladly sit here again and recommend this house gig hands-down!

Adam is awesome!
I have known Adam for a very long time, as he is one of my dad's good friends. He has a beautiful home and is very easy to communicate with and get along with. One would be lucky to spend time in this nice part of Petaluma!
