House and pet-sitting opportunity in Cupar, Scotland, UK

  Description

  I live in Cupar, Scotland it's kind of small strange town but the best part about it is it's good transit. It's a quick bus trip from St Andrews, 45 min by train from Edinburgh and 30 mins by bus from Dundee . There is an hourly bus to both Edinburgh as Glasgow and frequent bus and rail services that cover east Scotland. The train and bus station is a 10 min walk from my flat.
  
  I'm looking for a pet sitter while I'm away from mid aug - mid sept but if you need to arrive a little early or stay a little longer i can work with that. I would prefer one person to cover the whole month.
  
  I live in a old, SMALL 1 bedroom flat, with my fish and three INDOOR ONLY cats. Their care is paramount, and the cats must be kept inside. It would also be easier if you knew how to care for fishtanks (like doing water changes).
  
  My cats are all big cuddlers. They will attach to you like barnacles, scream in your face, and adore you. I don't know what else to say. They will all sit on you and demand cuddles. All day.
  
  You are welcome to make yourself at home here, there's double bed room, and joint living room/kitchen. I have Wifi, but no tv or gaming set up. I have fans and wall heaters but no A/c. You are free to use any cooking supplies and laundry is in the kitchen. There are 3 supermarkets in walking distance and a co op. As I will not be there, you will have to cover your food costs. You also need to keep the flat tidy, but again, it's just yourself there.
  
  There is the option to take a short trip somewhere like Inverness or Skye as my neighbour would be willing to feed the cats for a few days. However, this would better suited someone more satisfied with day trips to explore the cities and nearby area.
  
  Would suit a solo traveler, a couple, or two friends travelling together. You must be queer friendly. No smokers, and would prefer someone who doesn't drink or drinks sparingly (I'm 10 year sober).
