The Experience

Hello there! We are two beautiful black cats Fiera and Lupa, we are looking for a kind human who feed us whenever we want, who pet us when we need it, an intuitive person who can guess all our desires...as our owners already learned to. Theis names are Francesca and Gabriele. Francesca runs a farm shop in town, Gabriele is a skipper and a hockey player. We think they need a help with simple chores in the house!

A very nice experience. Lupa and Fiera are easy to care for. Lupa loves to play and Fiera lives in her own world, coming to the house to ask for food and to sleep. Francesca and Gabri are very good and attentive to everything you need. Good meals and good conversations. Recommended. Thank you.

The days in Castagneto were very peaceful and the sunsets were beautiful from the balcony. The house is lovely and has two cute cats. The chores are very calm and respectful. Francesca is an extremely kind and admirable person. I will miss you! I hope to see you again in Brazil! 😂♥️

I am truly grateful to Mariana, she is a very sensitive person, someone you can trust in. I hosted Mariana during this summer and she hepled me with house chores and amazing healthy cooking while I was working.
Never say thank you enough, she made me open my mind on many aspect of life. Hope to se you soon in Brazil. Abraços
