Hello future House Sitter, I'm looking for a mature, responsible person to house sit my cat callie and house plants for the month of March 2012 in North Oakland. The neighborhood of single family houses and apartments is in a residential area (Temescal) close to the Berkeley border. I'm one block to Telegraph Ave, with ethnic restaurants,cafes and shops, and a fifteen minute walk to Piedmont Ave with more great restaurants,cafes, shops and a movie theater. Another great feature of this location is the Bart station to San Francisco is only a block and a half away. My one bedroom apartment has hardwood floors,high ceilings, french doors, great sunlight and is comfortably furnished with art and antiques. I'm sure you will enjoy your stay here. I hope this time frame of one month suits your needs. Thank you for your consideration, Travelbug
