Needs and animals

2 Cats

I have two very affectionate cats and have always used another platform like this when traveling, but now I’m trying this one. They basically enjoy being around humans, although one of the cats takes 1 or 2 days to get used to new people. The tasks mainly include feeding them and playing with them. The older cat takes CBD daily for a health issue, but I provide it in the form of treats, so it doesn’t even feel like giving medication.

House

I have a cozy and comfortable apartment right across from Barra Beach in Rio de Janeiro, with stunning views of both the sunrise and sunset over the mountains.

The apartment features a bedroom with two desks for working, a living room with a TV and dining table, a fully equipped kitchen, and a lovely balcony with a dining table, a comfortable sofa for relaxing, and a surfboard rack.

It’s located in the West Zone, a calmer area compared to the tourist hotspots, and just a metro ride away from the South Zone, Rio's main tourist hub.

Edmonton, Canada - October 2026

We had a great time at Larissa's cozy apartment in Rio - in a very nice building up on the 27th floor with a spectacular view. The wonderful beach is less than a 5 minute walk away. Her two cool cats, Chet Baker and Pippistrella, were easy to look after. Pippi does take a while to get used to strangers so we gave her some space. We had lived in Rio before so we spent a week enjoying our favorite treats - caipirinhas, feijoada, sucos and seafood! It was very easy to get around on the water taxi, city bikes, metro and Uber. We enjoyed long walks along the miles of beach and one day we even cycled to Ipanema. Larissa gave us very clear instructions by video and made sure we were comfortable before she left. Highly recommended petsit. We hope to go back one day!
