Who am I?<\/h2>\n<\/div>

My name is Aur\u00e9lie and I’m a French 42-year-old (OMG time flies) who’s taken up freelance translating so that I can travel and work at the same time. This life-changing decision has allowed me to enjoy long-term stays in various places, and I fell in love with New York City. I come regularly to the city and have looked after different cats already, so I thought I\u2019d design a website to help New Yorkers find me!<\/p>\n<\/div>

Friendly<\/h2><\/div><\/div>
\n

I\u2019m a very easy-going and reliable person. I\u2019m not an agency, so you\u2019ll know exactly who takes care of your pet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Experienced<\/h2><\/div><\/div>
\n

I\u2019ve owned a female cat (Chouquette) for 14 years, and I\u2019ve already done catsitting in New York in various places.<\/p>\n

Flexible<\/h2><\/div><\/div>
\n

Because I’m freelancing, I can easily organise my time as I wish and take time off wherever and whenever.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Aur\u00e9lie took care of our cat, Steve, in our home in New York City for about 3 weeks. She was extremely attentive to Steve and communicative with us. She made us aware of an issue with our kitchen window, and made herself available for the super to come look at it and get it fixed, and updated us on the process. She sent us photos of Steve from time to time which was very reassuring. When we came home, the apartment was in perfect order, and she even cooked for us to welcome us back! I can’t recommend Aur\u00e9lie highly enough!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>

I am so happy I found Aur\u00e9lie! She\u2019s professional, friendly, easy to coordinate with, and my cat, Toby, loves her. I\u2019ve never had a long term cat sitter before so I was a bit nervous but it\u2019s been a great experience. She checks in with me regularly, sends me pics of Toby periodically, took very good care of my home while I was away, and saved me a lot of time, stress, and money.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>

Aur\u00e9lie took amazing care of our cat, Sidney, while we were away on vacation for 10 days. She communicates well and is quick to respond to emails and texts. Aur\u00e9lie is a true cat-lover, it’s obvious she enjoys taking care of them because Sidney was super happy (we could tell because she sent daily pictures and he was always snuggling with her). Aur\u00e9lie kept our house in immaculate shape, it didn’t even seem like anyone had been here when we got back. I highly recommend her!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>

As a long-time member, I have both traveled and hosted for short-term or long-term stays. I still use it when I travel to New York City as it allows me to live with real New-Yorkers.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Since Airbnb is now often just property rental, I’m doing more and more house swapping and I’m super enthusiastic about it. Direct swaps are open any time!<\/p>\n<\/div>

Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Why would I use you instead of a local agency?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

You don\u2019t have to of course, but what I offer is real company for your cat as I work from home and will interact a lot with it. And it\u2019s also a free option for you as accomodation will pay for the catsitting, which can mean a fair amount of money saved every week.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Can you tell me more about a house swap?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

If you feel like seeing Lyon, which is the 3rd largest city in France and the food capital of the country, we could swap places for how long as you want. I\u2019ve already done it: see the reviews on Airbnb and Home Exchange in the reference section above!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
