Our home

Two bed, two bath in quiet neighborhood within walking distance to everything in town. Large yard and deck to enjoy. You'll have the whole house to enjoy and settle into to. Walking trail across the street takes you to the seawall in about 10 minutes. Full use of house (except for owners bedroom).

favoriteWhat we love about our area

The area is beautiful (that's why I live here). 15 min drive to sandy beach. Trails, hikes, ocean visits are super close. Lots of wildlife in the area (bears, elk, cougars, wolves, deer and if course raccoons!). People are super friendly. Very safe and comfortable town. Lots of lakes to explore too!

Our pets

Cats (1)

Senior cat (14) requiring in home care while I'm away. Sitter is expected to be home at night. Free feeds kibble but wet food to be fed with insulin injections. I will reach you how to administer meds :) He can go outside if sitter is comfortable with it. He's very food driven so easy to call usually. Pretty easy cat to care for over all.

medicationMedication/treatment required

Insulin pen injection twice per day. Requires wet food with injection. Also free feeds. Daily litter box cleaning is important.

Important info

If you plan on going to the more remote places, good tires and 4x4 is recommended.

I would expect a housesitter to be present overnight, every night. Leaving during the day is fine (between insulin shots).
