We are a non-smoking, reliable, capable and trustworthy couple who pride ourselves on the love and attention we give people's homes and animals so you can relax and enjoy your time away, knowing all is well on the homefront. Tony is often referred to as the "Animal Whisperer" so you can feel safe knowing your animals welfare will be prioritised and they will be treated like family.
We have extensive house and pet sitting experience. We both come from a farming background so not only love animals but we are also pretty handy administering medication, checking stock and water, repairing a fence, driving a tractor and/or maintaining gardens, pools and lawns in your absence. We have looked after fully off-grid properties ranging from a few acres right up to broadacre and livestock stations that have been close to 20,000 hectares in size.
We are available for a virtual meeting or call together whenever you are.

"Belinda & Tony went above & beyond my expectations. Daily updates, very clean house on return - Also, there was a wonderful welcoming homemade pizza in the fridge to pop in the oven when we returned home as well as a bottle of wine & savouries. .Very thoughtful & responsible couple. Have already booked Belinda & Tony for a return sit. The animals were not stressed at all & we were glad to have been able to have ‘peace of mind’ whilst on a break

If I could give 10 stars, I would! I cannot speak highly enough of Bel & Tony- simply lovely people that I am grateful to have met through this Home minding site. All I can say is "WOW"!!!!!!!! I've been getting house minders for quite a few years now but never have I ever come back to such a beautifully clean house and so many treats and surprises and beautiful flowers!! Being the one who looks after everyone else all the time, I cannot tell you how nice it is to come back to this - it really made my week away 10 times better! No wonder they get such incredible reviews.
I arrived back to a house that was cleaner than when I left- a platter of scrumptious cheeses, dates, & fruit; beautiful flowers everywhere and a frame with photos of my two doggies looking extremely happy and content! Communication while I was away was fantastic.
Now I know why they had such great references, and I will add mine to the list! if you have an opportunity to book these guys, don’t hesitate!! And Bel & Tony- I am very much looking forward to the next booking, as our Casper and Sylvester!🙏❤️

Arriving home to happy and healthy pets and a very clean and tidy house as if it was their own, was an absolute joy - and a gift platter and totally unexpected generous gifts were a wonderful surprise. We feel truly blessed they were able to be here as it has made not only our holiday more enjoyable, but our homecoming absolutely wonderful. Bel and Tony are a delightful couple who bent over backwards to ensure our home and pets were cared for perfectly - so much so we have rebooked them for our next holiday.

"Words can not convey how wonderful Belinda and Tony are.
My dogs are like my kids, I struggle to leave them while traveling. Belinda and Tony take all the stress and anxiety away.
With morning and evening updates thru videos / pics I am comforted to know they are safe and happy and can go ahead and enjoy my holiday.
They go above and beyond and I hesitate to give this review as I don’t want them to book up as I wouldn’t trust anyone else lol.
10000% recommend these guys any day of the year"

"OMG, we have just arrived back to our 500 acre property after 3 weeks in Europe and our farm looks amazing. We received regular updates every 4 days (as requested) accompanied with very impressive photos. Our lawns have been mown, the firewood shed is full (with more wood cut and on the back verandah), the weeds have gone from the garden, our shed has been swept out and our animals look really happy. Welcome home goodies and a lovely card with a photo montage were also waiting for us when we stepped inside our house which has been left in a better state than what we left it in. Thank you Belinda and Tony, we would love to have you farm sit for us again. You are both amazing"

What a great couple ! Looked after my horses, poultry and property so kindly, competently and responsibly. We returned to a spotless tiny home. If I could keep them here forever I would :)

Belinda and Tony were absolutely wonderful sitters. Their communications before and during the sit were prompt and informative. They quickly gained our confidence with their warm and open personalities. They are active and highly competent people in all manner of tasks and are very capable on large properties away from town. The timid Border Teddy and feeble old terrier Ben were well loved and cared for and now expect to be photographed every day. On our return the house and extensive gardens and vegetable garden had been beautifully maintained, the house was shining and the fridge was stocked with all manner of interesting edibles including a welcoming pumpkin soup. We are very appreciative and would be very disappointed if we couldn’t get them for our next adventure.

"This was our first adventure into House sitting. But from the very first call with you both I knew our home, garden & pet would be well looked after.
While we were on holiday we received regular updates on our dog Lucy. She was showered with love and went to many places with you both. Lucy had her first birthday while we were away and you gave her a gift and birthday party. How special.
When we arrived home 2 months later we would never have known you were here. Our house was left in immaculate condition. Kept clean and Lucy was clean and washed. We also found a lovely gift you had left for us.
I cannot wait to go on holidays again and know i could leave without a worry.
Paul and myself highly recommend Tony & Belinda 150% to look after your home, pets & garden."
