Seeking a nonsmoking, vaccinated individual or couple to care for our cats while we are away for eleven days in late June.

We have three indoor cats: ages nineteen, seven, and one. Our seven-year-old has FHS and needs medication (either in food or by syringe in mouth) three times a day (no more than nine hours apart), so we need someone who can commit to meeting that schedule.

Otherwise we just need someone who can feed everyone, pet and snuggle with our old man and help entertain the kitten! Our housekeeper comes for two hours three days a week, so no real upkeep is required -- just wash your own dishes on the other days.

Our property is in West Ajijic, south of Rancho del Oro, near the lake -- in fact we have a lake view from our dining room. It's quiet and peaceful most of the time. There is a large garden and a small pool shared with the other five houses in our area (four of which are vacation homes and usually vacant), parking for one car, as well as a couple of excellent restaurants and a small grocery within walking distance. Guadalajara centro is about an hours' drive away (30 minutes to the airport).

The 'rainy season' Lakeside begins mid-June, which means the microclimate of the area cools off and the mountains turn from brown to green almost overnight. Most days remain sunny; showers tend to happen in the near sunset or overnight. Unlike the beach, the hottest part of the year will already be over -- highs are typically about 80F/27C, lows about 62/17C. It's a great place to spend the summer.

We have a king-size bed, bathtub, widescreen TV with an array of streaming services (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, HBOMax, etc.), and fiber optic wi-fi. Full-house water purification and pressure pump also.

I will post more photos of the house in May -- we are in the final throes of a kitchen extension and renovation. By the time you arrive we will have a brand new gourmet kitchen with all new appliances, so if you like to cook (as I do) you will love staying here!

If interested, please message me with references. Thanks!
