Walk everywhere from my beautiful, warm, sun-filled, 2bed/2bath home in downtown Salida.  Surrounded by river and mountains, local skiing nearby and major skiing within a couple of hours in every direction, this is an outdoor person's dream location.  Mountain biking, hiking, rafting are all local pastimes, as well as town hopping, scenic drives or just tucking into a comfy abode and enjoying the beauty that surrounds. 

Lulabelle is the sweetest cat.  She is easy and loving and gorgeous.  She is older so she's not high maintenance and at the most, she likes to go outside for a mid-day stroll in her fenced yard area for a few minutes or to basque in the sun.  Care includes feeding her a couple of  times per day and dealing with the litter box, tho' she prefers to do her business outside (as long as you let her out when she asks!).

**I will be out of the country FEB 1 to mid APRIL and am looking for someone to stay the entire time, with the kitty.  

I had a great sitter all lined up, who had an accident yesterday and now I am in great need to find the right person ASAP!  Flights and plans are all booked.

“ I had the good fortune of house and cat sitting for Laurie. Laurie owns a lovely and charming home in the quaint and incredibly picturesque town of Sa ”

The house is within walking distance of all the shops and stores in the historic downtown area.  It's an ideal location.  Caring for Laurie's beloved cat Lula was a real treat. 

Lula is a mild mannered and sweet older cat who enjoys her breakfast and dinner, mid day treat, time spent soaking up the sun in the enclosed, and very safe, hardscaped patio area, being brushed, and of course curling up on one's lap for petting and a nap.

Laurie is very thorough, business like, and clear on her expectations of the sitter.  Laurie walked me through Lula's routine, familiarized me with the house and neighbors, left a comprehensive list of contact numbers for home maintenance issues and emergencies, and generally covered all details. 

A thorough and prepared home/pet owner eliminates stress, confusion, and any "unknowns" for all parties involved.  Laurie was excellent to work with, a strong communicator, and it was a pleasure to care for and safe guard both her home and kitty. 

Laurie very kindly and graciously arranged alternate, short term housing for me when her trip was cut short due to the coronavirus, and she returned earlier than planned.  Laurie's thoughtfulness was greatly appreciated.

If you have the opportunity to visit Salida and sit for Laurie and Lula I highly recommend that you do so!

Best,

James M.
