About this assignment
I’m looking for a responsible, caring house sitter to stay in my home in the Summerlin area of Las Vegas while I travel. I have five cats who need attentive, loving care — so a genuine cat lover is a must!
What the Role Involves:
Full-time house sitting — you’d stay in my home for the duration in the first level bedroom with a full bathroom (please see photos).
Daily feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance. I leave kibble out 24/7 and I have a water fountain. Only my two friendly kitties will come to the kitchen to eat canned food for breakfast and dinner. The other three kitties are afraid of strangers and most likely won’t overcome their fear.
General house oversight - security, watering indoor and outdoor plants
Keeping the home clean and comfortable
My Ideal Sitter:
I’m hoping to find someone who sees two weeks in Summerlin as a treat, not a chore and someone who likes dry heat.
Specifically, I’d love someone who:
1. Genuinely loves cats
2. Doesn’t want to come to Las Vegas for gambling on The Strip — I’m looking for someone who appreciates the quieter, natural side of Las Vegas. Of course going to shows and concerts is always fun and entertaining
3. Doesn’t mind watering indoor and outdoor plants
4. Is in the 45–65 age range — life experience and a settled, responsible approach matter to me
5. Treats a home like their own — respectful, tidy, and trustworthy
Why You’ll Love It Here:
Summerlin is one of the most beautiful parts of Las Vegas — close to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area with world-class hiking and biking trails right out the door. It’s peaceful, safe, and a great base for exploring the Mojave Desert, Mount Charleston, and Valley of Fire (located about an hour north of my house). If you love the outdoors, you’ll be in heaven.
My house is within walking distance from Downtown Summerlin which offers outdoor shops, restaurants, and a luxury seating movie theater and has a great farmer’s market on Saturday’s from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM and the Red Rock Hotel and Casino that has more restaurants and a 16 screen theater including an IMAX screen with luxury seats.
There is a Trader Joe’s at Downtown Summerlin and a Whole Foods and an Albertsons within a mile from my house.
What responsibilities are required of the house sitter
Taking care of my house and my pets, and water some houseplants and a few outdoor plants. Garbage day is on Friday morning so I roll out my garbage and recycling bins on Thursday evening.
What are the good features of the property and location
My house is located in a quiet neighborhood (there is some noise from the nearby 215 freeway but my quality windows prevent most noise from being an issue) about 20-30 minutes from The Strip. There is a neighborhood park and pool.
What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment
Las Vegas is in a desert, and the weather is generally hot during the summer and cool during the winter. The thing I like most about living in Las Vegas is that the sun is shining and the sky is blue almost every day allowing for an abundance of opportunities to be outside.

Testimonials
Very friendly and accommodating owner of 5 cats!
This was a fairly easy house sit unless you have problems with stairs. The cats were easy going and only 2 male cats would come and ask for breakfast and dinner (only for wet canned food as there was always 2 bowls of kibble to snack on at any time). After a few days the 2 female cats would come down and hang out apart from Loki who is like a ghost Carrie's place is in a quite location with several private streets and no traffic passing through. It was great to go for walks in the evening and there were several parks nearby. There are hiking trials a short drive away. You could even walk to the Summerlin town center where there are many restaurants, shops and a theater. The internet and streaming options were very good on the large TV in the great room. The kitchen is well equipped. I am hoping to sit for Carrie again, when she has some longer trips planned!
