About this assignment
I am currently working overseas and not able to return to the house to check on it and do some maintenance. I am looking for someone to look after the house and can help me with some house and plant care. There are no pets to care for, however, there are plenty of plants that need some attention.
The dates are somewhat flexible
What responsibilities are required of the house sitter
The primary responsibility is to care for the garden and indoor plants. Help me identify any maintenance or repair needs for the house and garden.
What are the good features of the property and location
The house has been recently renovated, it has 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, large kitchen, dining, living, and cinema room. It has a large yard consisting of a terrace and garden. The house is in a small village with some nice restaurants and shops.
What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment
Though it is easy to reach almost everything in the village on foot, the larger grocery stores are located outside of the village. Having a car is best in order to get around.
Also, I am really looking for someone who has gardening and home maintenance experience and enjoys puttering around the garden and house.
Can I bring my own pets?
No, sorry.

Perfect sit next to Yokohama with Buddy & Ms. Blue
We had a wonderful time looking after Robin & Kevin's home and their two lovely furballs Buddy and Ms Blue while they were away. Their home is just outside Yokohama, on a hill (60 steps to the entrance) and close to public transport (Negishi line) and a well stocked supermarket. After getting used to each other, we had an incredible time with the two cats. Blue became a lap cat from day one and was always asking to be petted. Buddy sometimes had his 5 wild minutes running around the house, but it was always fun to watch, and he also followed us every step. Both cats were easy to care for and gave so much love in return. We already miss them, and we hope to see each other again. You could easily leave them alone during the day to explore Yokohama or Tokyo (only a 50 min train ride) and come back at night to give them your love and attention. We were more than happy to have had the opportunity to care for them and would love to see and care for them again at any time in the future.
