Description
Help required. ..
Italy is often wet, cold , occasionally snowing during this time.
So you need to be prepared!
2 wood burners to feed..
Looking after 50 + cats..
2 , people, one double room..
Must be organised and be able to work without supervision once shown the ropes.
Common sense a bonus !
7/8 am start to feed cats
Clean approx 10 litter trays after feeding
Vacuum/ sweep, wash floors.
Prepare meals for yourselves...
I will visit daily, but will be staying 5 minutes away up the village.
For 2 people this isn't hard.. I've been doing this alone, but heading towards my 80's ,I really don't need to be carrying logs anymore , unpacking cat food deliveries etc..
There are modern appliances, air fryer, microwave ..floor cleaning machine.TV and so on. .internet..
After lunch, free time until cats evening feeding / cleaning litters.
Happy to chat ..
Sheila

A chance to improve or learn Italian.. A chance to observe a multi cat household, with their odd ailments.. Parodi Ligure a quiet medieval hiltop village
Aide
Maybe if workaway people get to grips with being here and are here for 2 or more weeks, I'm sure I can slot back to give them days off..
Thanks

Hébergement
A double room of their own in the house.
Autres infos...
I have wifi. Trains to Milan/ Genova, wherever are reached at a station 20 minutes from here.. I'm happy to give lifts to the station.. There is a bus service to Gavi, our nearest market town, 7 klms away.. I have had people from "Trusted House sitters" stay, but they both tell me its more a working holiday, than just house sitting.. I'm pretty laid back.. just need assistance with the day to day cleaning..
Gavi has a small market each Sunday morning and Novi Ligure a town half an hour away has a fairly large market on a Thursday morning.
The fast train to Genova takes half an hour, a city worth a visit :)
The village of Parodi is in the country, views of vineyards and hills..
Wonderful walks

I learned new things about cats again even thou I had 4 cats myself years back. Every cat has its own character and they tell you if they want you around or not. The vet she goes to is just great with animals! I found it… read more
To be left "In Charge" for a young person can be daunting, but you managed extremely well.. I'd be happy to recommend you :)
She was really kind, talking was easy from the first moment on. The work is not too much, but of course has to be done. Most of it is cleaning and in winter heating. So day to day routine. Nevertheless you… read more
