My experience

7 years

We used to have an adorable Abyssinian cat and a very active Jack Russell Terrier back in our home country. For over a year, we've been volunteering at a horse farm here in the United States. Growing up, my grandparents had a cow, a horse

This is our second time having Katerina and her son stay with Zidane. We come home to a very happy and well cared for kitty and home. Thank you both so much!

Katerina is one of the most caring and responsible people I know. She has given me excellent tips on how to take care of and administer medication to my own cat, and she truly understands how important pets are to a family. She also met my cat a few times and was very gentle in approaching her, and wasn't at all upset when the cat - who is famously unfriendly - hissed at her in return. Having worked with Katerina, I also know how reliable she is. I really can't think of anyone I'd trust more to take care of my cat.

Why I want to house sit

We love animals but, unfortunately, can't afford to have any at the moment. We're also passionate about exploring new places, which is why this opportunity feels like such a perfect fit for us.
