Notes
We have a lovely rescue dog and we normally do trusted house sitters when we are away. We can stay at our Vermont house if someone wanted to stay at our house for a globe or non- simultaneous exchange. If it was simultaneous, our dog Maple would be at the house. He loves people and other dogs. But please don’t fall in love too hard with him!
Cleaning fee of $150 unless we do a simultaneous exchange or however we would arrange it.
