Hyde is a wonderfully calm and easy-going cat. She's not demanding, but she does appreciate her little rituals: her soup in the morning, and a quick trip to the tap when she fancies a drink! Aside from that, she's happy to relax, snack on whenever she likes, and enjoy the company of whoever's looking after her.

Additional information about these dates

My return date is slightly flexible (by 1–2 days), so the sit could end on either August 30th, 31st, or September 1st, depending on my final travel arrangements. I'm looking for one sitter for the entire stay, rather than multiple sitters covering different parts of the dates. As I'll be leaving early in the morning, if we don't have the chance to meet beforehand, you'll be able to collect the keys from a nearby KeyNest location.

House

A typical Lyon apartment nestled in "the village" atmosphere of Croix-Rousse, one of the liveliest and most central neighborhoods in the city. This charming Canut apartment is located on the 3rd floor (no elevator).
Inside, you'll find a great living room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a study area with a desk. The bedroom features a comfortable 140x190 bed. WiFi is available throughout, and sheets and towels are provided.

Croix-Rousse district itself is full of life, with plenty of restaurants, charming small squares, a daily market, and stunning views over the city. From here, it's an easy walk down "Les Pentes" (Lyon's arty, bohemian district) straight into the city center.

Lyon has so much to offer right outside your door:
Vieux Lyon: One of Europe's largest Renaissance districts, with cobbled streets and hidden "traboules" (secret passageways).
Parc de la Tête d'Or: One of the largest urban parks in France, with a free zoo, lake, and botanical gardens.
Les Halles de Lyon Paul Bocuse: A food-lover's paradise showcasing Lyon's famous gastronomy.
Croix-Rousse Market: Right on your doorstep!

And for those wanting to venture further:
At the gates of the Monts d'Or, perfect for Sunday walks.
Not far from the Alps (Chamonix is 2.5 hours by car) for mountain lovers.
Not far from the sea — Marseille is 2 hours by train or 3 hours by car — for a taste of the Mediterranean.

A few other ideas if you'd like to add more:
Beaujolais vineyards – Just 30–45 minutes away, great for wine tasting day trips.
Pérouges – A stunning medieval village about 40 minutes from Lyon.
Annecy – The "Venice of the Alps," about 1.5–2 hours away.
Geneva, Switzerland – Around 2 hours by car, easy day trip.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong - October 2026

Tout s'est très bien passé avec Morgane, Hyde et chez elle. Morgane est une hôtesse très agréable qui m'a très bien accueillie dès le début et elle a l'esprit très ouvert. J'ai adoré vivre dans le quartier très sympa de la Croix-Rousse. L'appartement était énorme et magnifique. J'ai beaucoup aimé passer du temps avec Hyde. Il a fallu un peu de temps à Hyde pour s'adapter à la présence d'un étranger comme moi. Mais après 3 jours, elle s'est rapprochée de moi de plus en plus. Par la suite, elle a adoré rester près de moi. J'aimerais beaucoup revenir et séjourner à nouveau chez Morgane et Hyde à l'avenir. Je la recommande sans hésiter. Merci encore Morgane !

I had great time taking care of Hyde and Morgane's plants and apartment. Hyde was so easy to take care of, I loved having her around always supervising what I was doing :D Morgane was very accommodating of my departure and arrival, helped me get to her place. Her apartment is beautiful and in a great neighborhood. It was pleasure to hang out with Hyde, and definitely recommend the stay.

J'ai adoré mon expérience de garde d'animaux avec Morgane. L'emplacement de son appartement était parfait pour mon séjour de quatre mois à Lyon. L'accès facile à tout. C'est un bel espace dont elle prend soin, avec tout le nécessaire, ce qui m'a tout de suite mis à l'aise. Son chat, Hyde, a été un vrai plaisir à prendre soin. Très gentil et affectueux, il est nourri à volonté, ce qui facilite les choses. Morgane est une hôte formidable qui veille à ce que je me sente à l'aise tout au long de mon séjour, même à distance. Merci ! Hyde me manque déjà.
