About me

43, Self-Employed – Technology Startup Founder

Hi, I’m Jonathon, a reliable and respectful house sitter based in Melbourne. I have experience caring for homes on the Mornington peninsula and Sydney’s Northern Beaches and in Central Otago, NZ.

favoriteWhy I love house sitting

I get to connect with animals and see different parts of the country. I’ve run my own concreting and landscaping business so if there’s any work you want done at the property more than happy to help you save some dollars as you enjoy a break.

All about providing clear communication, reliability so you can enjoy your time away knowing everything is being looked after.

My work is online, currently developing a platform I’ve named 2BF. (Second best friend). 2BF connects caring people with dogs. It’s a companionship platform built around relationships, trust, and community

I’ve been around animals for most of my life. Growing up, I spent time helping on my uncle’s farm, which gave me experience caring for a variety of animals and taught me the importance of responsibility, patience, and consistency when it comes to animal care.

Over the years, I’ve also looked after pets for friends and family, including feeding, walking, administering basic medications, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and understand that every pet has its own personality, routines, and needs. It’s their house so if you have them on the bed I’m happy to have them on the bed. 😊
