3 cats in a mountain home, Northern Arizona

About this assignment

Responsible, trustworthy, communicative, caring, attention to detail, willing to care for my property as if it were your own, a good cleaner and someone who is peaceful.
No additional overnight guests allowed.

What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

Two 9 year old cats, one is deaf. I rescued them 18 months ago while my dad was in a memory care facility. Also, there is one 14 year old long haired cat who belonged to my parents. She's super sweet, but not getting along with the two rescued cats, so they have to stay in separate parts of the house. All 3 love attention. They like time on the back screened in porch, even during the winter they treasure being on the porch when the temperatures allow.
I have a detailed cat care and house sitting document to provide with more details. The cats are low maintenance.
I have houseplants that might need watering while I'm gone and have trees and gardens that will need watering. I will provide a schedule to follow for daily care.
The sitter would collect mail from the PO Box about twice a week.
You would need to arrive on June 4th or 5th for us to meet and to receive instructions, as I depart on the evening of the Friday, June 5th. My return will be around noon on Monday, June 15th.

What are the good features of the property and location

The area in which I live is a part of the Coconino National Forest so there are Ponderosa Pine trees everywhere. If you enjoy nature and hiking this sit is for you.
Munds Park is a small community about 20 miles from the nearest town/city - Flagstaff. See next section for more details.
Within about 10 minutes of walking you can be at the nearest trailhead of the forest. My neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. My home is a small 2 bedroom, 2 bath manufactured home with a living/dining room, kitchen and front and back porches, as well as a small back deck. The back porch is screened in.
The master bedroom has a queen bed and the other bedroom has a twin bed. Both bedrooms have cat climbing walls built.

What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment

No additional overnight guests allowed. There are restaurants, pubs/bars, gas stations, a post office and live entertainment in my community. But, the closest shopping, movies and services are in Flagstaff about 20 miles north. The only public transportation is a bus system that runs only in Flagstaff. Munds Park is near 7000 ft elevation in the Coconino National Forest, with many hiking trails in the area.Within 30-60 min of driving you'll find an abundance of hiking trails between 5-12,000 ft elevation. The Grand Canyon is 2 hrs away.

Can I bring my own pets?

No, sorry.
