About this assignment
Hi, I'm from the UK originally but teach here in Bangkok.
Ocean and Turbo are super affectionate and friendly.
I'm heading south for the holidays and I'm looking for someone who can be around to feed and look after the cats as needed.
1 month is a while, but I do have a cleaner who can help out feeding animals if you want to get to the beach for a couple of days.
What responsibilities are required of the house sitter
Feeding 2 male cats (2.5 years old)
Taking cats to vets if needed and administering medication if required.
keeping an eye on the electric cat litter tray and emptying the bin every 4 or so days.
Refilling water bowls every few days.
Watering plants in the garden every day
Feeding a few fish in garden
A little cleaning in the areas the cats run around in
Cats do go outside during the day via a window I leave open. But I recommend keeping them inside at least the first week if not longer so they get used to you, we can discuss in person :)
What are the good features of the property and location
Light and comfortable 2 bed house.
A third room downstairs I use as a study / sick cat room, it also has a single bed.
Lots of space.
Large table for dining or working in sitting room and the study.
Treadmill
2 bathrooms both with hot water showers
15 min walk to Punnawithi BTS or 15 bhat on motorbike taxi
Quiet street
A great local food market and an amazing Thai restaurant close.
2 good sports bars but mainly small thai places nearby. It is about 15 mins on bts to more popular spots such as Asok.
TV (you can log into your own netflix or prime accounts etc)
Free 5g WiFi
Aircon and fans in each room
Lock box on gate for keys with code
Nice public swimming pool (outside) a 20 minute walk
Beautiful temple and meditation center just behind the house
Electric cat litter box
What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment
I live in a Thai house in a local community, a bit out of the "main city". The house is wonderful, but things can go wrong with a house in tropical countries! The landlady is in Bangkok and any problems, she will be able to support and arrange with some translation help.
I will be in country so always on hand to chat to.
Can I bring my own pets?
No, sorry.

Testimonials
Turbo and Ocean in Bangkok
We did a MindMyHouse sit for Leah and her two adorable ginger cats Turbo and Ocean in Bangkok, in a lovely neighbourhood, thirty minutes outside the center of Bangkok with a cool Skytrain transport nearby. Leah is wonderful, relaxed and very well organised and helpful. Her cats are raised extremely well, and Leah is so very fond of them. We loved to take care of her “children” when she was away. To all future sitters, please give the cats as much love as you can, they are so thankful for that. The house is special, has luxury rooms, with a front garden instead of a car park, really nice to relax in. We thank Leah for her trust in us and that we had the opportunity to have such a lovely stay with both of her cats (really amazing ones) and her house and garden. We also liked the 'guard' of the neighborhood, who takes care of her street and always was very friendly to us. Leah gave us a lovely smelling present for our Christmas celebration in her house, so friendly. Thank you Leah, for this wonderful experience. Thank you Turbo and Ocean for your friendliness and love. We miss the both of you a lot already!

I am so grateful I got the chance to stay in Leahs home and look after her cats and ever increasing fish. The location was a perfect mix of small local authenticity and bright lights, big city. While the pace of Bangkok is nonstop, Leah has created a home that is a relaxed and comfortable escape. Though various problems arose with the structural integrity of the house and access to water, they were manageable enough and are only natural given the country and six week stay. The cats are adorable and energetic and found themselves in some sticky situations, but conveniently the house has an english-speaking vet clinic at the end of the street. I enjoyed Bangkok thoroughly and look forward to when I can return!

Loved those cats!
Great sit with 2 adorable young cats in a lovely, spacious home. Beforehand, I was given detailed instructions and information about the housesit, and the area's amenities. Check-ins were easy with Whats App, and Leah was quick to respond. Location is good; shops, street vendors and public transport are all within a 5-20min walk. I miss those 2 cats so would love to come back in the future! MA-Mary Ann

Ocean & Turbo
This sit was an absolute pleasure. Ocean and Turbo are really great cats. They're really fun to be around and very well behaved. We were lucky to have had the opportunity to care for them at this time (Christmas '23 just over 1 year old) as they're in really great shape and very playful! The house is neat, tidy and quite spacious. The road is a cul d'sac so there's not a great deal of traffic and it's nice and peaceful. It's a short walk to the local shops and only a little further to the BTS. Lea was very organised and welcoming and all of the arrangements went very smoothly. I did a few odd jobs about the house, Gun did a fair bit of cleaning, the cats got new toys & turkey for Christmas and fortunately for us the fish had babies while we were there! So everything went well, everyone was happy and Lea wrote us a very lovely review! Would recommend!
