Hi- we are thinking of taking a vacation near end of January for aprox. 10 days to 2 weeks. I have one indoor only cat (linus, 11yrs) and for the first time in his life is without his older sis cat (she passed away a couple of months ago at 17yrs). I usually hire a pet sitter to stop by once a day, but have reconsidered having a "live-in" house/pet sitter as I am worried about his loneliness. We are located within 7 blocks of MAX station. Couple of miles to downtown Portland. 10 mins. walking to Hollywood district village. No gardening or much else with maintenence needed...just loving TLC for my kitty. Also, peace of mind with someone to watch over my home. Let me know if you have a certain fee. thanks for your time, tracy
