House-sitting in Rome

Needs and animals

1 Cat

The real owner of the house is Guido, a fat and very sociable cat. We expect guests to feed him daily, keep his toilet box clean and stay with him some time to keep him company. Being summer, the plants need to be watered, too.
That's all, folks!

House

Thanks for all the messages! We received around 30 of them in 24 hours, which is definitely more than enough. Please allow us some time to check them and reply, life is busy and time is a very scarce resource... The apartment is small but excellently located: a few steps from the Vatican Museums, a 5-minute walk from St. Peter's Square, and next to the metro stop (Line A, Cipro station). It is located on the third floor of a historic complex built in the 1920s, it is comfortable and recently renovated. It overlooks an internal courtyard with garden: a large magnolia gives shade to the bedroom window. A habitable terrace surrounded by plants allows you to dine outdoors on summer evenings. The house has all the useful services you may need, including heating, air conditioning, Wi Fi and high definition TV with Sky, Netflix and Prime TV subscriptions. The house has 3 beds: we have a double bedroom and a folding guest bed that can be opened into the study or wherever you want. The Prati district is one of the historic districts of Rome. In addition to prominent historical-artistic emergencies such as St. Peter's and the Vatican Museums, it hosts all the necessary services and …

The Prati district is one of the historic districts of Rome.
In addition to prominent historical-artistic emergencies such as St. Peter's and the Vatican Museums, it hosts all the necessary services and a multitude of bars and restaurants for all tastes. About 200 meters from the house there is the Trionfale market, one of the best-stocked and beautiful in Rome, useful for taking home some local and genuine souvenirs.
The closest metro station is Cipro, but Ottaviano is also a few minutes walk away. Several bus lines pass right next to the house as well as a cycle path that allows you to cycle in the centre, go down the banks of the Tiber or towards the Ponte Milvio area.

Well, to fully know Rome 2 weeks wouldn't be enough. But Rome is also a good starting base to visit cities like Naples (1 hour by train) or Florence (one and a half hours)

Rehlingen-Siersburg, Germany - September 2024

Luca hatte mich freundlicher Weise am Flughafen in Rom/Fiomicino mit dem PKW abgeholt. Was eine großartige Geste und natürlich sehr komfortable war. Dann fuhren wir zu der Wohnung im Stadtteil Prati in der Nähe des Vatikans. Auch Mari hatte mich sehr herzlich empfangen und anschließend wurde ich zu einem leckeren Abendessen in ein Restaurant eingeladen. Die Kommunikation funktionierte schon im Vorfeld hervorragend. Alle Fragen wurden prompt und ausführlich beantwortet. Mein Aufenthalt in Rom war sehr gut vorbereitet. Der Umgang und die Gewohnheiten von „Guido“ sowie die Wohnung wurden mir ausführlich erklärt und alles Erforderliche bereitgestellt. Die Katze Guido war unkompliziert und von Beginn an sehr zutraulich und verschmust. Die schöne renovierte Wohnung, in einer ruhigen und abgesicherten Wohnanlage, ist geräumig und mit allem Komfort (Klimaanlage!) ausgestattet. Metro- und Busverbindungen sind nur wenige Minuten entfernt. Der ideale Ausgangspunkt, um die sehenswerte und tolle Stadt Rom bzw. die Umgebung zu erkunden. Für 1,50 Euro konnte ich ans 30 km entfernte Meer/Lido di Ostia (mit Metro, Zug und Bus) mit seinem feinen Sandstrand fahren. Mari stellte mir sogar ihr E-Bike zur Verfügung, was mir die unkomplizierte Bewegung in der Stadt zu jeder Zeit ermöglichte. Ich kann Guido the Cat, Luca und Mari für einen Aufenthalt in Rom nur empfehlen.
