Needs and animals

1 Cat

We're looking for somebody to take care of our cat, Rosie, while we're away. She's a very easygoing, sweet (yet a bit shy and clumsy) indoor ginger princess, that just loves a bit of cuddles every now and then (on her terms :). We expect from house sitters to feed her once and clean her litter box daily. Because of her shyness It may take a while for her to get close with you, so we're looking for somebody who is calm and patient, preferably one person or a couple. Furthermore: collect mail and if needed run a little errand.

House

A 100 m2 two bedroom, bohemian style apartment on the third floor (no elevator) in the trendy Ixelles neighbourhood, close to the European Quarter (5 min. walk), Louise neighbourhood (5 min. walk) and the city center (15 min walk) of Brussels.

We do have a piano and a projector, as well as a very nice courtyard during summer.

Our home is in Ixelles, one of the nicest neighbourhoods in Brussels, a 10-15 walk to the European parliament, the royal palace, many museums or the Ixelles ponds and the La cambre park and forest. Plenty of restaurants, coffee shops and shopping just a few minutes away on foot.

Tourism and Leisure

Most historic/tourist cities in Belgium are less than a 1h train ride away and can be done as a daytrip. Definitely go check out Ghent, Antwerp and Bruges.

Je recommande à 100% ce super nomador! Julie et Wouter sont adorables et très chaleureux. Le logement est juste parfait, situé dans un quartier super. Et Rosie, même si elle a tendance a avoir peur et à se cacher la journée, est une chatte adorable qui n'hésites pas à venir faire des calins une fois au lit :) Au plaisir de revenir vous voir, et faire un calin à Rosie ;)

Bruxelles, Belgium - November 2024

(in English below) L'appartement de Julie et Wouter est situé dans un quartier très vivant et pratique, près de magasins, restaurants, bars, bibliothèques et arrêts de bus. Le quartier historique de Bruxelles est accessible en 15- 20 minutes à pied environ, le quartier européen à 5/10 min. Pour les sportifs, l'emplacement est très bien car les lacs d'Ixelles sont à 5 min, le Bois de la Cambre à 15 minutes (en courant), le parc du Cinquantenaire est à 10 minutes (en courant). L'appartement est décoré avec beaucoup de style et très élégant. Rosie, le chat, est exactement telle que Julie l'avait décrite: craintive, timide et discrète. Néanmoins, dès le 2ème soir, alors que je lisais au lit, elle est venue demander des caresses et ronronner. Plus le temps passait, plus elle était câline et moins elle avait peur. C'était dur de la quitter! Au mois de novembre, Bruxelles est gris, froid et humide mais le chauffage fonctionnait bien dans la chambre, la cuisine et le salon. Je n'ai malheureusement pas pu rencontrer Julie et Wouter à cause de changements d'horaires. Ils m'ont appelé quand ils étaient à l'aéroport et m'ont expliqué les essentiels. Puis quand j'avais une question, je leur écrivais un message et ils répondaient très vite. Ils m'ont semblé cool et détendus. Julie and Wouter's apartment is located in a very lively and convenient area, close to shops, restaurants, bars, libraries and bus stops. The historic district of Brussels can be reached in around 15-20 minutes on foot, the European district in 5/10 minutes. For sports enthusiasts, the location is very good because the Ixelles lakes are 5 minutes away, the Bois de la Cambre is 15 minutes away (by running), the Cinquantenaire park is 10 minutes away (by running). The apartment is decorated with great style and very elegant. Rosie, the cat, is exactly as Julie described her: fearful, shy and discreet. However, from the 2nd evening, while I was reading in bed, she came asking for cuddles and purring. The more time passed, the more cuddly she became and the less afraid she became. It was hard to leave her! In November, Brussels is gray, cold and humid but the heating worked well in the bedroom, kitchen and living room. Unfortunately I was not able to meet Julie and Wouter due to schedule changes. They called me when they were at the airport and explained the basics. Then when I had a question, I wrote them a message and they responded very quickly. They seemed cool and relaxed to me.

Julie et Wouter sont restés 3 semaines et nous ont régulièrement envoyés de très belles photos des chats, ce que nous avons grandement apprécié :) Nous avons retrouvé notre maison parfaitement rangée et ordonnée, je les recommande vivement.
