Greetings home-owners. G'day pet-lovers.
I'm a quiet person, early to bed and early to rise.
Whilst house-sitting, caring for your home and pets is my number one priority.
No worries with lawn mowing, plant care, pool maintenance etc.
I'm a home-owner and regard myself as being neat and tidy, respectful to neighbours and security conscious.
Thanks for your consideration.

Tony is a very experienced house-sitter and genuine person. From first contact he was excellent. The house was left immaculate but most importantly he was so considered with the care of our Lab (not sure Khazi wanted us home ha). Khazi got a decent puncture wound in the care of our dog-walker (not in Tony's care). Tony went above and beyond looking after the wound and updating us daily. We'd highly recommend Tony for any house-sit.

Tony was amazing! His communication was always prompt and clear. We felt comfortable with him from the getgo. He came and met boots prior to us leaving, he was so easy to chat with. We received a few photos of Boots whilst away and a checkin to say all was well.
He took great care in looking after Boots and our home. We arrived home to a happy kitty and clean home.

We will happily have Tony back to housesit and highly recommend him to others. Thanks so much Tony!!

Amazing! We could not have asked for more. Tony was impeccable in every way, and we came home to such happy animals and a house that was immaculate. The communication was first rate the whole way along. Highly recommended!
CHRISTINA (EAST LISMORE NSW, Jul 2022 - 2 weeks)
Tony was excellent and a big thank you for being flexible due to Wayne ending up in hospital while away. We came home early Tony was so caring and a great communicater. The house lawns and cats were all excellent. We would highly recommend Tony. A big thank you and will contact to see if available next holiday.

Tony was fantastic, from our first communication to the last upon our arrival home. Our puss Bella was well cared for and as happy and comfortable with Tony as she is with us. Our home was clean, neat and tidy upon our return, The bedding and towels washed and on the line, We can't wait to be able to welcome Tony back. Thanks so much for everything Tony, you are the perfect house sitter
ALAN (Banora Point NSW, Jul 2021 - 4 days)
Tony was a wonderful house sitter whose communication exceeded our expectation from start to finish. He was flexible, accommodating and extremely understanding when our plans changed at the last minute, and when the internet crashed. The house was spotless on our return and our fluffy ones were extremely happy. We would love to have Tony house sit for us again and would not hesitate to recommend him to others. Thank you so much Tony!
KAREN (Murwillumbah NSW, Jun 2021 - 1 week 5 days)
From the beginning Tony's communication was prompt, honest and friendly. His questions about care and expectations showed his experience and genuine interest in caring for my house and pets. He was on time both occasions that we met before the sit. Communication while I was away was the perfect amount on updates on my pets. He was also kind enough to give me some valuable information in regards to a leaking hot water system, which I may not have been aware of without his knowledge.

I already tried to book him for another sit, but he wasn't available :-(

Thank you Tony. The house and the pets were beautifully looked after.
JAN (Mudgeeraba QLD, Sep 2020 - 2 weeks 2 days)
I highly recommend Tony to anyone in need of a house/pet sitter. Tony's communication was excellent from the outset, and he kept me up to date and informed before, during and after the sit. I came home to a very happy and contented pup, and a spotlessly clean house. I would have absolutely no hesitation in having Tony sit for me again and am more than happy to give a verbal reference for him should anybody require it. I'd give more than 5 stars if I could.
AMANDA (Currumbin Waters QLD, Jan 2020 - 6 days)
Tony came to our rescue at short notice. He was easy to communicate with, came around to make sure he knew what we wanted and left us confident he would do a good job. He kept us up to date with the dogs which was important and left the house probably cleaner than we left it. All good.
DAVID (Burleigh Waters QLD, Oct 2019 - 3 days)
10 out of 10!!!
Garf loved the attention and care Tony gave him.
We loved the feeling of confidence that Garf and our house were being well looked after.
Tony is an excellent house sitter and is very welcome at our place anytime
JOCELYN (Fingal Head NSW, Sep 2019 - 1 week 3 days)
After my first meeting with Tony prior to going away I was left feeling very comfortable my house and pet would be in good hands. He was eager to please and keen to keep my furry friends routine as normal as possible.
He kept regular contact before and during the housesit and sent me updates and photos while I was away.
It was a pleasure to arrive home to a happy puppy and clean and tidy house.
I was very lucky I managed to get Tony for another housesit next year as he is booked out early.

Tony is a genuine and honest man who took excellent care of our house and pets while we were away. Our cat has never had so many brushings which she adored and our blind dog loved the attention and long walks she received every day. We came home to a clean house, garden and pool and we would highly recommend Tony for your next house sit. He will be our first call when next we go away.
SHAW (Parkwood QLD, Jan 2019 - 1 week)
Tony aims to achieve Peace of Mind for home and pet owners and he certainly did this for us..he was easy to contact re sit and kept in contact with us about any concerns he had, or just to keep us updated. We returned home to a clean and tidy home and happy cats. Would recommend Tony to anyone looking for a sitter and hope to get him back in the future. Thanks heaps Tony.
JANEEN (Terranora NSW, Feb 2018 - 1 month 1 week)
My husband and I had never had a house sitter from 'Aussie House Sitters' come to our home before and were a little apprehensive about a stranger coming into our home.
We met with Tony the week-end before leaving and immediately struck up a rapport with him. He is a friendly, genuine, open, honest and caring guy, who did an incredible job looking after our home and our cat. The house was cleaner than when we had left it and the cat was sorry to see him go! He went above and beyond with pool ...

DEBBIE AND MARK (Worongary QLD, Jun 2017 - 1 week 2 days)
Tony was an excellent house-sitter who also cared for our old pooch who needed medication three times a day.
We arrived home after 10 days away to a happy dog, a spotless house and fresh milk in the fridge! We would highly recommend Tony to anyone seeking a house-sitter.
JANET (Alstonville NSW, Jul 2016 - 1 week 2 days)
We'd like to recommend Tony to any home owners looking for a house/pet sitter. We found Tony to be honest, reliable and cared for our pet and home as if it was his own. Tony will be our 1st choice in the future.
PETER & STACEY (Biggera Waters QLD, Jun 2016 - 1 week 1 day)
I have no hesitation in recommending Tony as a house-sitter. We both saw the importance of meeting up beforehand, as it meant he had a chance to interact with my cat & to see what the situation was here, & me the chance to meet him.
As we all know, communication is the key to success in any relationship, & with Tony communications were clear, friendly & frequent.

While I was away,he regularly updated me on how things were going. Due to an illness in my family, I needed to extend my time away, & Tony was amazingly flexible & thoughtful in the way he could accommodate that extension....my family was very grateful to him for that.
When I returned, the house was clean & tidy, the cat contented, lawns mowed & neighbours speaking warmly of Tony's friendliness & willingness to fit.
My cat and I are very keen for a return sit from Tony! I found Tony to be friendly, honest , trustworthy & respectful in his role of caring for someone else's home, possessions & most importantly, beloved pets.
I thoroughly recommend him.
JUDY WAGNER (Cabarita Beach NSW, Oct 2015 - 1 week 4 days PLUS)
When we went on holidays, we left Tony a clean house, mowed lawns, plants that were alive and most of all our 2 most precious possessions (cat & dog). When we came home, it was like we hadn't been away as everything was the same as we left it. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tony.
ROSE (Varsity Lakes, QLD, Sep 2015 - 1 week 1 day)
My House Sit with TONY was for 3 weeks. He is a man who listens and takes on his house sit with great gusto. He looked after my lawns and garden. He attended to weeds, watering, re-mulching, cutting back of shrubs, whipper snipping,& rubbish. Inside was left neat, tidy & very clean, including washing of bedding used. He replaced any food that I had left. I will be looking forward to securing him again over Christmas/New Year next year as then I will be able to enjoy my holiday with my ...

Yes I am recommending TONY for your House Sitter. Barbara.
BARBARA (Tweed Heads West, NSW, Jan 2015 - 3 weeks)
I happily recommend Tony! He rode to our rescue when other sitters let us down at the last minute and he understands how stressful it can be when a sitter pulls out so I believe you can be confident he won't do that to you.
Tony is friendly, respectful & easy to deal with, took great care of our ageing pets and I felt very comfortable leaving our home and pets in his care. He's first on my list to call when we next need a house sitter.
RYAN (Tallai, QLD, Oct 2014 - 1 week 3 days)
We had a very pleasant experience with Tony as our house sitter. He cared for our place (house on small acreage) and animals so well. Tony looked after our old dog, the cat and two horses. Feeding, watering, walking and applying medicine and lotions was involved. The animals all looked well cared for on our return and the house was cleaner than when we left...

Tony was available any time via phone or text which was a relaxing experience for me. We never had a house sitter before 'a stranger in the house omg' I asked my best friend to visit during our absence and she found all animals happy and Tony friendly and open.. as did I when I met him before we left. I am hesitating writing such a glowing report only because next time I may not be able to get Tony to house sit because he will be fully booked. But I can't be that selfish of course. Tony I am wishing you best of luck in finding just the right place for a longer stay over Christmas and early next year. If you need a phone reference also feel free to pass on our number also.
NATALIE (Myocum, Byron Bay Shire, NSW, Sep 2014 - 1 week)
Tony is a one of our most regular and preferred Housesitters and we have lost count how many times he has house sat for us. He is so popular in South Golden Beach that two of our friends with dogs also regularly have him sit. We no longer have a dog but Tony was most caring of our aged border collie and couldn’t do enough for her. He always leaves the house spotless and has a very light footprint. We have become great friends and would recommend him highly.
