Pet Sitter Job in Bedford, Massachusetts

We need last-minute cat care in our home over Thanksgiving, ie NEXT WEEK, because our regular cat sitter is going out of town over Thanksgiving for the first time in 10 years. We have 2 adorable kittens, Eclipse and Earl Grey, whom we adopted from a shelter about a month ago. Eclipse is supposedly 7 or 8 months old, and Earl is about 5 months old. Since Earl is so young, he needs to eat 3 meals of wet cat food per day plus have dry food available at all times. Eclipse loves to steal Earl's food, so we separate the cats for meals, and when we leave food out for little Earl, we have to close the kittens up in different rooms. We would need you to come twice on Wednesday (in the early afternoon and then again in the evening); three times on Thanksgiving (early am, sometime in the early afternoon, and then again in the evening); and twice on Friday (once in the morning, and then again once in the afternoon). Each time you come, we would love for you to play with the cats for a bit first--they love fishing-pole toys Cat Dancers, superballs, and laser-pointer-tag. We would then need you to give the cats each some wet food and a bit of dry food and watch to make sure they are both eating, then distract Eclipse until Earl has finished eating, then put Earl into the bedroom with whatever food he hasn't finished along with some extra dry food, and close the door. We would also need you to give the cats fresh water at least once per day and make sure all the water bowls are full each time you visit. We'll give extra credit and extra pay if you scoop out their litter boxes into a bag and then throw that bag out in the outside trash each day. We hope you can help us spend time with our family out of town this year! Thanks for reading! Michelle & Eric with Eclipse and Earl
