San Francisco Bay Area - Contra Costa

Melanie

Job Description
Our two young adorable bonded cats, Batman and Robin, are indoor only. We rescued them from a local shelter as kittens late 2020. They love peeking out the windows, being snuggled and brushed and playing with toys. Robin is shy at first but warms up over time, and Batman is typically friendly when meeting new people quickly seeking a pet on the head. Batman may require administration of oral medications by syringe, depending on how he heals from an injury in mid-March. Three raised vegetable garden beds will be on a timed irrigation and need supplemental watering depending on the weather.

Home Description
Charming 1930 Tudor-style home with vaulted living room ceiling, original wood floors, sunny breakfast room, full dining room, renovated full bathroom, all new appliances in bright kitchen with full amenities for cooking and baking. Cozy back yard with a gas grill and guests are welcome to harvest seasonal vegetables that are ripe during their stay.

Information about the surrounding area:
Our home is walking distance to two grocers and over a dozen restaurants (Brazilian, Chinese, Korean, Mexican, Peruvian, Pizza, Thai, Vietnamese and fast food). Bus and rail transportation to Berkeley, Oakland and San Francisco are accessible by walking to stations 5 to 10 minutes from the property; Richmond ferry service to Pier 1 in SF is 10-minute drive. A short taxi away from miles of green space for biking, hiking and Bay sports such as paddle boarding, kayaking and sailing. Less than an hour to world class wineries in Sonoma and Napa Counties.
