I need help with a last-minute housesit in Richmond!

I am REALLY NEEDING someone to step in for a housesitting job in Richmond next week.

I'm a service provider myself, and I have just become totally overwhelmed with the volume of bookings this month, and I need a backup for a client of mine.

This is a very nice, small detached home near Terra Nova, and you would be looking after one very shy indoor cat who just needs feeding twice a day and someone to ensure the house looks lived in.

We will provide all the cat food and litter supplies, and the client has very specific rules about who can use their stove (they prefer you don't cook, simple microwave meals are fine).

The sitter needs to be there for five nights, starting this coming Tuesday evening and ending Sunday morning.

The main tasks, besides the cat, are:

Ensuring the lights are rotated daily (different rooms lit each night).

Watering the small collection of porch plants.

Making sure the mail is brought in from the mailbox at the end of the driveway.

Please remember that you must be legally allowed to work in Canada for this task.

Having your own car is a plus for this location because it’s a bit of a tricky area to reach quickly via transit in Richmond.

We can discuss the rate, and the budget is flexible depending on your experience.

Allow extra time for parking, this is Richmond we’re talking about, and street parking can be tricky in this neighbourhood with all the new homes.
