We're retired doctors heading off to India for 6-9 months. We need someone to look after our beloved, well-equipped house, garden and cat in quiet, leafy, well-connected West Dulwich. What responsibilities are required of house sitter? We'd need you to feed and look after the cat, water the garden and generally keep the house ticking over: - Cat needs a daily feed, but the auto-feeder and neighbours can step in if you need to go away for a bit. Other than that she takes care of herself, has a catflap, and goes to the loo outside! - Peter the Gardener comes once a week, so you just need to water it between his visits. Features of the property and location - House tucked away in a small cul-de-sac with lovely neighbours. - Plenty of off-street parking. - Sizeable garden with pond surrounds the house. - Gorgeous leafy surroundings, with BelAir (incl tennis court) and Dulwich Parks within easy walking distance. - Close to pubs, restaurants and shops of West Dulwich and Dulwich Village. Close to all Dulwich schools. - West Dulwich station is 7-8 mins' walk, with frequent trains take 12 mins to London Victoria. Buses 3 and N3 to Oxford Circus are close. - We currently have 16Mbps Wifi from O2, and SkyHD on a big plasma.

Pretty sure guy got paid to do it and was a sort of pro house sitter. Guess it was through something like that link.
