Hi, I’m Jesica Cookson, owner of Green Mountain Home Watch and your neighbor here in the Shrewsbury–Killington area. Years in school administration taught me to stay organized, keep careful track of keys and schedules, and communicate clearly, and years in health care, especially with medical equipment, made me careful, safety-minded and comfortable checking systems. I’ll look after your home the way I look after my own.

Frequently asked questions

What areas do you serve?

Shrewsbury, Plymouth, Mendon, Chittenden, Killington and nearby Rutland County towns, back roads included. Ask if you're just outside that area.

What do you check on a visit?

Heat, water, power and security, inside and out: thermostat and furnace, signs of leaks or frozen pipes, sump, doors and windows, and anything you ask us to watch. You get photos after every visit.

What happens if you find a problem?

We contact you right away with photos. With your OK, we can call and meet your plumber, fuel company or contractor.

What counts as a storm check?

A walk-around after major weather such as heavy snow, ice, high wind or an extended power outage. [Owner to define exact thresholds.]

Do you go up on roofs?

No. Roof raking is done from the ground on reachable eaves only. Full roof shoveling can be referred to a local roofing contractor.

Is there a contract?

Plans are month to month for the season, with a simple written service agreement. Prepaying the season gets you one month free.

Are you insured?

[Insured — pending. Owner to confirm before publishing.]

How do I pay?

[Owner to confirm payment methods, e.g., check or online invoice.]
