Hang Out With Two Tiny Tigers at the Beach in Southern California!

About this assignment

We are looking for a sincere and kind petsitter who is independent, honest and has common sense - as well as a genuine respect for all creatures, especially cats. We'd like to meet a nonsmoking, clean person who will provide safety and tender loving care for our pets at our large, beautiful beachfront home.

What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

Your most important responsibility is keeping our two healthy, indoor only cats feeling loved and secure. Please enjoy our home and take responsible care of it. The cats eat wet cat food for breakfast and dinner, and have dry food and water always available. They are well behaved, accustomed to getting a lot of attention. Their litter box is a Litter Robot which is amazing, you'll need to empty it every 4-5 days. We'd appreciate you watering the indoor and outdoor plants once a week and bringing in the mail. We are neat freaks - you don't have to be but please keep the place clean.

What are the good features of the property and location

This is a large home with a stunning 180 degree ocean view and constant ocean wave sound. Our building is quiet and the area very safe. We live in a genuine Southern California beach town of about 25,000. It is easy to get around on foot or by bicycle. Outside your door are 3.5 miles of walkable beaches and a world famous big-wave break. Go surfing or just enjoy watching. Estuary across the street if you enjoy birding. If you meditate or do yoga, you will be in heaven. Great big soaking tub available, and streaming/smart TV with tons of channels if that's your thing.

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

We are looking forward to your email saying why this house sit would be a good fit for you. Basic Spanish and a valid passport/visa would be ideal, though not required. Our vet is in nearby Playas de Tijuana and available by phone/email. Amenities are located a 5-6 block walk away in the main area of town, a physically active person would enjoy walking the beach and pier. Downtown San Diego and all its attractions are 20-30 minutes away, depending on traffic. Southern California is designed for car travel, not public transit, so please have a vehicle or discuss using ours. If you’re a heavy drinker, smoker, or offended by gay lifestyles this is not the house sit for you!

Can I bring my own pets?

No, sorry.
