Cat loving sitter needed in Halmstad, Sweden

About this assignment

We are looking for a home sitter who can provide love and care for our 3 year-old Kaching during our trip for one month in January-February.

What responsibilities are required of the house sitter

To help Kaching continue staying in her own home and environment safely and keep her usual routines in her own territory. Most important is she needs her litter box cleaned every day, maybe some treats and play. She's an only child and needs human contact daily to feel safe and calm. She doesn't talk much and often keep to herself (near her human) but can definitely get naughty when she wants to play. She likes to show love by rubbing against but not so much cuddles. She however loves pets, her chin scratched and her fur brushed. She always gets so happy to hear how good girl she is.
It's okay to leave her during the day if you want to explore the town or even for a night as long as it's not more than 24 hours and not often or she can get quite anxious being left alone for so long. She has her automatic feeder that she gets her food from 4 times a day. Her water in the fountain needs to be changed daily or every other day and cleaned every week. Also her food mat should be cleaned every 2-3 day. We have
Our main focus is our little Kaching. We don't need you as the sitter to do anything else for the apartment. But you need to be a somewhat clean and tidy person and maintain the clean home as you yourself want to live in.

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