Deb and Tony - Pet Grandparents

62, Retired

65, Retired

Hi, Tony and I are both retired, having worked in schools for around 20 years. Now that we are pet-less, housesitting gives us back the enjoyment that only pets can give as well as making slow travel more affordable. We have been house-sitting for around 8 years now, looking after precious pets and watering and tending beloved gardens. At home, we have our own garden and pool so know how to keep them clean and operating well, we also have a country property with a rainwater tank and waste water treatment system so we understand the importance of water conservation. We come from North Queensland and our daughter lives in Brisbane so we love to travel down that way regularly to visit her and other family and friends. We have completed many sits for Aussiehousesitters with glowing referrals. We also have a few other references attached to our profile from happy homeowners we have previously sat for privately, We are responsible, tidy, non-smokers and you can be reassured that we will lovingly look after your home and pets as if they are our own. We find being flexible and keeping our sense of humour goes a long way to squeezing happiness out of every day. All we ask is for a clean and safe home and we are happy. Anyway, if you think we might be a good fit and our dates align in the availability calendar, please get in touch, we would love to say hello :)

Deb and Tony were our house sitters in December 2020 for a week while we went on holidays. On first meeting our pets, we could tell they were kind and lovely people. Our dog is a rescue and he is quite an anxious dog and he immediately felt at ease with Deb and Tony when we were ready to leave our dog sidled up to his new "humans" and did not appear one bit worried about us leaving. While we were away, we received several updates and pics of the pets and weather reports from home, communication ... MORE
 
CATRIONA (Centenary Heights QLD, Dec 2020 - 7 days)
Deb and Tony completed a four day house/dog sit for us. Prior to the sit they were in the area and came to meet us and the dogs. This was much appreciated. We communicated by phone and text as necessary. They sent us delightful pictures of the dogs during the sit. The house was left beautifully clean and tidy for our return. We would very happily have these 5 star sitters again.

Absolutely lovely couple. Left home feeling very confident and at ease. My fur babies were so well looked after including my home. I would get some gorgeous pics and updates to keep my mind at ease. I would highly recommend this lovely couple they are welcome to my place anytime. Thanks Deb
 
MAIREAD (Twin Waters QLD, Nov 2023 - 4 nights)
Thanks Deb and Tony for looking after our various animals. (I know they are not always easy) Well done taking Nugs for a walk. He does love to go and have a good sniff around even though he cant see. The house was really clean, beds stripped, bath room and toilet cleaned. So nice to come home to. Many Thanks Junelle
 
JUNELLE (RD 3 Otaki North Island, Feb 2023 - 2 days) From Kiwi House Sitters
Deb and Tony did a wonderful job house sitting for us. Communication was prompt and thorough even before the sit. They gave our 18month old Groodle lots of TLC, sending regular updates and photos. We came home to a lovely tidy house, yard and pool. Tony also did a great job of maintaining our hydroponic veges. We would recommend Tony and Deb without hesitation and would be very happy to have them housesit for us in the future.

ANITA (Port Macquarie NSW, Mar 2022 - 1 week)
Deb and Tony did a wonderful job of caring for our 2 dogs and 3 chooks - all were happy and healthy upon our return. We returned to a very clean home and all linen and towels had already been washed. Deb sent numerous updates and photos while we were away, which were gratefully appreciated. Tony had used his handyman skills around the house and garden and this was also gratefully appreciated. We have no hesitation in recommending Deb and Tony to other home and pet owners and would have them ... MORE
 
JUDY (Lang Lang VIC, Feb 2022 - 4 days)
Deb & Tony are excellent, experienced house sitters who we can recommend highly to any prospective home owners requiring a house sitting service. Deb & Tony took great care of our cat, our dog and our home, and they ensured that everything was clean and tidy when they departed. They also took time to keep us updated while we were away, which helped us to feel confident our home and pets were in good hands. Thanks Deb & Tony for your professional service, all the best for the future.
 
DAN (Wynnum West QLD, Jan 2022 - 6 days)
Our first time using AussieHousesitters and Deb and Tony did not disappoint. Our house was kept immaculate and Axel and Falcon were looked after so wonderfully. We were kept up to date throughout our holiday which was great peace of mind. We would not hesitate to have Deb and Tony back.
 
NIKITA (Albany Creek QLD, Mar 2021 - 4 nights)
Deb & Tony are a lovely couple. They arrived in plenty of time and I felt totally confident leaving them to take care of my two dog's, fish, garden & house. They sent message & photo up dates. They left the house spotless and my dog's were very Happy & relaxed on my return. I would 100% recommend Deb & Tony for any house sit. They are trustworthy, quiet & care for my fur kid's so well. Thank you & I would love for them to house sit again one day.
 
PAULA (Paradise Point QLD, Feb 2021 - 4 days)
I was lucky to get a chance to meet Deb and Tony before we left to hand over medical instructions for our elderly dog. They were very lovely and I immediately felt very at ease knowing they were staying. While away they sent updates and photos which was much appreciated. Upon returning they had the house spotless and washed/put away all linen. They even made the bed which was a massive relief after a 6 hour drive with 4 tired kids. Unfortunately their stay included weathering a huge storm but ... MORE

Deb and Tony went above and beyond in caring for our house and pets. They were easy to keep in touch with and they gave us regular updates throughout the week. It was reassuring to be able to go on holiday knowing our pets and house were in good hands :) I would definitely recommend Deb and Tony to anyone looking for house sitters- they were reliable, friendly and genuinely nice people! Thanks again guys :)

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
