Larry and Linda gave much loving attention to our two cats and sent us pictures of them at play while we were gone. They also sent updates on how everyone was getting along. We really appreciated that extra step. And we could relax knowing the boys were well cared for. The cats were obviously brushed a lot because their coats were so shiny when we got home. Larry and Linda left our house sparklingly clean - what a wonderful surprise! We highly recommend them as pet sitters and would definitely ...

Linda and Lawrence were the perfect pet sitters! As a rule, Sophie the cat usually does not warm up to men, but she and Larry were good buddies from the start. Animals just know when people are caring and safe. They were so sweet and thoughtful that it felt like family was staying in the home and making sure my cat got her meds and the attention she needed. I came home to a very clean house and a happy cat. I highly recommend Linda and Lawrence!
We were so fortunate to have Larry and Linda come and housesit for us. They took excellent care of our 3 miniature pinchers, hibiscus plants, and home. The communication, dependability and thoughtfulness gave us such a great relief we felt we were truly blessed. I can not say enough good things about them.
Larry and Linda were amazing sitters for us! We had an instant connection with them when we visited by phone before the sit and even more so when meeting in person. They are such thoughtful and kind people. This is the longest (4 weeks) we have ever left our pets, but we were able to enjoy our trip without worry knowing our home and kitties were in good hands. We loved getting pictures and updates. We returned to a very clean home and happy, healthy kitties. They even left us a sweet gift and ... MoreLarry and Linda were amazing sitters for us!

We returned to a very clean home and happy, healthy kitties. They even left us a sweet gift and note and food that we enjoyed for our evening meal. It was nice not to have to think about that after traveling and unpacking. We would welcome them back anytime and highly recommend them to others!

This was my first time using housesitters and I think I hit the jackpot. Linda and Lawrence were great at communicating from the beginning. We met for an hour or so before I left. I felt confident that they were trustworthy and would do their best for my dog. I was much more concerned with dog care than house care. However, they also left the house probably neater than I left it. I highly recommend this couple for house sitting.
We were delighted to have Linda and Larry care for our cat and home. They are wonderful people and great sitters. Linda had a delicious meal waiting for us after our very tiring trip home. They are highly recommended.
Can say enough about how good they were. We did not get to meet them until they were leaving so they came in and had to rely on our notes, etc. They did great. House was clean, cats were well cared for. When we did meet before they left both cats came in and went to them before us. You will not go wrong if you use them. Highly recommended.
Larry and Linda were great Housesitters! They tended Kathy's garden beautifully, mowed the lawn, and bagged all the leaves from our big oak tree. They even left a surprise planter with impatiens blooming at our front door! We asked for a favor at their convenience and the package we needed redirected was on the way in hours! Their communication along with pictures was very appreciated! We came home to a much cleaner house than we left, and even a beautifully cleaned out second fridge that is ...

Their communication along with pictures was very appreciated! We came home to a much cleaner house than we left, and even a beautifully cleaned out second fridge that is usually out of our thoughts. We sincerely hope they will return some day, and the neighbors told us our front lawn has never looked better and demanded the names of our sitters. They came a day early and made friends immediately with our dogs, so for pet sits, they will be our 1st call! Wonderful!

Thank you both for the wonderful stay and the meal when we arrived.
Larry and Linda were perfect for our job. They were excited to come and see our area of the country. We gave them our routine prior to their house sit so that they could review. We answered any questions prior to their arrival. They even came a day early so we could do a walk through with them. We have lots of plants that needed tending while we were gone. An unexpected freeze came but Larry and Linda made sure all the plants were taken in and protected. When we got home the house was ... MoreLarry and Linda were perfect for our job.

If you want a couple who will care for your home and pet BETTER than you care for them youself, welcome Linda and Larry into your home! They are such a pleasant couple and completely trustworthy. Our dog Sophie has suggested my wife and I should shedule another vacation away soon....
During a much anticipated trip to Germany, we needed someone to care for our cat and home. Through House Sitters America, Linda and Larry came to the rescue. They arrived before we left and we were immediately at ease with them. They were attentive and asked all the right questions, As we drove to the airport we agreed that we had made the right choice in selecting this couple to care for our home and pet. We were not wrong. While away, we received several updates including a video of ... MoreDuring a much anticipated trip to Germany, we needed someone to care for our cat and home.

While away, we received several updates including a video of Ali Kitty playing. Nice. Walking in the door upon our return, we entered a perfectly clean home, some gifted jigsaw puzzles and even the linens were washed and away! An unexpected bonus. Without doubt, we would ask this fine team to return and can recommend them without hesitation to you.

Thank you for the wonderful review.
Larry and Linda were the perfect house sitters. The house was cleaner than ever, the plants grew noticeably under their care, and they even reorganized the cabinet with all the pet food,
