About
We have had a late cancellation of a house sitter. We have a house in Elwood that would suit a sitter who can care for a cat and a small dog. The dog was from a pet rescue and tends to be fearful of other animals. She mainly lives indoors so we would prefer a sitter who is not away from the house for most of the days. The cat is also an indoor pet; she is very independent. You would need to be comfortable signing a basic house-sitting agreement and we prefer non-smokers. Free and reliable unlimited Wifi internet available. Very close to Elwood Village and public transport. House sitting available from the evening of 29 March - 8 May. We arrive back on 9 May.
