We are looking for mature and experienced persons to care for our home and two cats and small flock of 6 chickens from December 18 - January 1. 

Our home is a spacious, recently-constructed, modern, architect-designed house in a beautiful rural setting in central Vermont. The house features plenty of light and large windows that overlook the Champlain Valley and the majestic Adirondack mountains. There are spectacular daytime and sunset views from all main living spaces as well as all three bedrooms. We have a fully equipped kitchen for those who like to cook. The house features three bedrooms (one is a child's room), two full baths, an open living room / kitchen / dining room space, a loft, and a library / playroom.  The house is about 3,000 square feet (or 900 meters squared).  We have high speed internet and streaming video, but do not have sattelite or cable TV.

For those who like nature, there are easy hiking trails right out our back door as well as more ambitious trails in the nearby Green Mountains and Adirondacks. There is also plenty of access to skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing and many outdoor activities.  We are centrally located in Vermont so it is easy to visit many of the picturesque and charming small towns around the state and explore the rich local culture (farmer's markets, craft breweries, artisan cheeses, maple syrup, arts & crafts, covered bridges, and more). We live very near the town of Middlebury and the town of Vergennes. The larger city of Burlington is 45 minutes by car.

We are happy to provide pictures and more information to anyone interested. We would prefer someone with home ownership experience to respond to our ad, and prefer a two-person duo.

Both cats are indoor, and will need to be fed twice a day as well as have their litter scooped daily.  The chickens will need to be attended to daily as well -- let them out in the morning, close them up in the evening,  and feed and water when things run low.  They are very low-maintenance, for those inexperienced with chickens.  Thank you for considering us!
