I never thought there might be a job title "professional Trusted Housesitter" but Tony and Linda fit that profile! As a houseowner, if you are a match with Tony and Linda you can go away in full confidence that your pet, home and garden will be in the best hands. When I responded to their interest we had a fun and informed conversation after which Linda sent me a check list of our household and pet care responsibilities that she has developed over the years which really helped both parties make sure we were a good match for them as they were for us. As much as they seemed to love exploring around our neighborhood especially for specialty foods and dining, they are also home bodies who enjoyed the house and being around with Prince (when he wasn't sleeping in the back). We had a lot of fun chatting the night before we departed and another debrief overnight when we returned which turned out to be a tasty opportunity to enjoy their chef talents. Everything in the house and yard was impeccably cared for and tidily cleaned upon our return. Tony takes on any fix-it task that may arise and they are both able and willing to step up to anything unexpected that may arise.
