If you have pets, you may have found yourself in a position where you need to ask someone you trust to check in on them while you're away from home - whether that's a neighbour, a close friend, or a family member.
But one woman who agreed to look after her neighbour's cat is beginning to understand just how much responsibility it is to look after someone's pet for them after she managed to lose the moggy when it didn't come back home.
The woman said her job involved feeding the cat in the morning and then letting it outside, where it would stay until the evening when she came home from work and called it back inside her neighbour's house.
