Thriving Too Care

Retired Primary School Teacher

Retired Marine Park Manager

Hello Everyone,

We are a fit, non-smoking, honest, reliable, mature and "young" Australian couple who retired a while ago from teaching (Mary) and marine park management (Tony, a Qld JP) positions.

We live in Brisbane not far from our three married daughters and grandchildren.

We have proven and extensive worldwide experience (80 successful sits to date with many repeats), and excellent references, in house-sitting and caring for homes and pets as well as aquariums, gardens and swimming pools. We live quietly and respect our neighbours.

Since retiring we have traveled for long periods away from home. We love travel, seeing new places and meeting new people, and are keen to do as much as possible. We just revel in the joy of travel and the experience of other places, and quickly befriend locals. We also pride ourselves on buying whatever we need and costing home owners nothing. We confidently assure you that both your pets and home will be cared for as our own.

If you are interested in exploring the possibility that we may be able to assist, please DO contact us ASAP. We would be more than happy to email references and photographs of ourselves.

With best wishes and in anticipation of being of assistance.

No rating Tony and Mary Stokes were marvellous housesitters in February 2017. My cat Fred was well looked after and the house was immaculate upon my return. i would not hesitate to recommend Tony and Mary to anyone seeking peace of mind whilst away from home

Mary and Tony are a delightful couple and I highly recommend them for house and pet sitting. You can tell they have done this a lot and made me feel very comfortable leaving my pets in their care. My pets were relaxed and happy when I got home and my house was as I left it. Highly recommend their services.

Tony and Mary were fantastic Housesitter's taking excellent care of both our pets and our house. They had fantastic communication and it was lovely that they came and met with us beforehand so that we could get to know them and show them round the house. On our return they were there to greet us and even baked a cake. I would recommend them highly and hope that they will sit for us again when we next travel

Mary and Tony were amazing house sitters! We came home to a spotless home, a contented dog and a freshly baked loaf of banana bread! We've since had the pleasure of meeting them and would have them back anytime!!!

Returned home to a SPOTLESS house. They even cleaned the fridge! Left us a nice note and some banana bread. Plants are green and our small dog wasn't over fed. Both our cat and dog looked quite content in any photos sent to us while we were away. Fantastic to come home to everything in order and happy pets.
