54, Cartographer

Hi

I grew up in the suburbs of Melbourne with many brothers, a sister along with, at various times, dogs, cats, birds, geese and rabbits. I've don't have much experience with farm animals but I'm more than willing to give it a go.

I returned to Australia in 2020 after 12 years away living and working in Germany, Canada, and mostly the UK. During that time I had no animal company and I've missed it. I also like human company but I'm happy with my own. I'm a clean and tidy bloke, I can cook and clean, and I'm not bad with a hammer. I'm always a very good tenant too. I can provide a police check

I'm 54 and fairly fit for my age. Non-smoker. I'm a Cartographer and I work remotely. All I need is an internet connection, a desk/table and chair.

thanks
Tony

Tony is a really lovely person - easy to talk with, and very accomodating. We felt completely comfortable leaving our pets and home in his hands. He won the cat over very quickly, and took really good care of our chooks. And he clearly spent heaps of time with our very active labrador, even taking her out in his car to give her a really good run around at the local lake. When we returned, it showed that she thought a lot of him. We had a few things pop up while we were away, so we were late ... MORE

Tony was absolutely amazing, I really couldn't have asked for more. Communication was great leading up to & right throughout his stay. He sent me updates & pictures, which I really appreciated when I was in Europe. It's clear he's a natural with dogs & Iggy loved his company. When I visited the dog park upon my return, everyone told me how lovely Tony was & that he was a regular at the park with his new mate Iggy. My apartment was sparkling when I got back & sheets changed, which was ... MORE
 
CLAIRE (Rose Bay NSW, Mar 2022 - 3 weeks)
Tony looked after our rural property recently - house, largish garden, and our old friend Peter the Cat. We returned from holiday to a spotless house, thriving garden, and a sleek, contented cat. We felt entirely confident leaving everything in Tony's care. It was a pleasure to meet him and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for a house sit in any location, he has a calm, quiet, competent approach that ticks all the boxes for house sitting! We wish him the best in his travels. Barbara ... MORE
 
BARBARA AND RENé (Duramana NSW, Feb 2022 - 2 weeks 5 days)
Tony did a great job looking after our home and two cats. We returned from our trip to a clean and tidy home, inclusive of healthy houseplants, and two calm and collected kitties. Tony is very reliable and easy to communicate with and we felt at ease right upon meeting him. He kept us updated throughout the housesit and when there was a maintenance issue he went above and beyond sorting out a temporary solution for us. Would highly recommend Tony!

Tony did a great job of housesitting my two cats, looking after the house, feeding the wild birds and watering the pot plants/making sure the veggie garden didn't die. He was really easy to talk to, happily did a Whatsapp interview and came a day early at my request so I could meet him first. He left the house lovely and clean, and the cats were well fed and happy when I returned (not lonely the way they sometimes can be if a sitter hasn't patted them much). He told me immediately when he ... MORE
 
HELEN (Pomona QLD, May 2021 - 1 week 3 days)
This was our first house sitting experience and from the first meeting with Tony he gave us confidence that he would care for our house, garden and chooks like it was his own place. During his stay he communicated with us about several issues and dealt with them well. We arrived home to a lovely clean house and well looked after garden. Tony also looked after our chooks very well and enjoyed their individual quirks and personalities. We would not hesitate in recommending him for any short or ... MORE
