NEW HAVEN Connecticut

Autumn in Connecticut
Great location with great weather
We are retired and are traveling more for longer periods of time and need to have company for our pets. We need some one who has had experience with pets , has patience and compassion; and really likes animals!
We would prefer a couple or singleton as we feel pets and new children are not a good combination.
Our Home & Location
Our house is a contemporary w/ kitchen, lr/dr, 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths. It has a washer and dryer and dishwasher plus a microwave. the outside has a wrap around deck. Our yard is large and landscaped.
We live in a secluded area only minutes from downtown New Haven. Bus stops are a 5 minute walk. Our neighbors are friendly. There are grocery stores, fast food, and Walmart in close proximity. We are close to all major highways. New York City is readily accessible by train or car. Boston is about an hour & a half away. Bradley International airport is about 1 hr. north.

New Haven is a picturesque New England college town and is home to Yale University as well as many other colleges. It has lots of nightlife and excellent restaurants as well as art and science museums and theaters.

We are also close to the shore and many beaches and a quick ferry ride from Long Island.

Responsibilities & Pets
Main responsibilities would be to take care of the house and our pets. We have some one who takes care the lawn and 2 of our greenhouses. You may be called upon to water the plants in the 3rd which opens to the laundry room. You will need to water the house plants also. Another person will be around to take care of my gardens.
If by some chance it snows (this is New England after all), you will need to shovel the walkway and a small area on our deck... We have a generator in case of a long term power outage.
Litter box will need to be changed periodically.

We expect that neither our house or possessions will be abused and our personal property and privacy will be respected.
