@Nora963 , @Denise1489 ,
would it be for a specific time frame, that you want to rent out your space including the cat, like of you are on a business trip or on vacation? or would you like to do this in general all the time?
I think it could work, a lot of guests do like cats and probably would like to take care of them for a couple of days.
For this purpose I would do the following:
- duplicate your current listing
- add "with cute cat" or similar to the title of your listing
- describe clearly what you expect from your guest (details of the cat sitting job)
- turn off instant booking
- open your calendar for this second listing only for those days your are away from home
- block your calendar for your first listing for those days
- I think there is a function inside the system to synchronize both listings, but I dont't know this works
- before accepting the booking the guest should agree to take care of your cat
- for emergency cases you should provide a phone number from a neighbour/friend in case the guest is unavailable during his/her stay for some reason
Good luck
