Peter Jones

40, Student

I've been housesitting for around a year now while on a career break and doing some study. I have experience looking after dogs, cats and other pets, plus plant watering and garden maintenance. Please see the reviews on this site.

I'm a clean, kind and conscientious person, and I want everything to go smoothly while you enjoy your holiday. I'll keep you up to date with photos, texts etc.

I can supply a police check and beyond looking after your pets and garden, keeping your house clean and tidy, checking the mail etc. I'm happy to do other tasks during my stay - let me know what your requirements are. I'm also careful about energy consumption. I enjoy going for walks during study breaks so I'm happy to walk dogs for as long as they need.

A bit about me: I'm from Canberra originally, but I've also lived near Gympie (in Queensland), in Sydney, Melbourne and the UK, and I've done plenty of travel. My experiences of housesitting have all been positive so far, and all of the feedback I've received from hosts has been as well.

I'm still quite careful with COVID, and I usually wear a mask around people. My vaccines are up to date. Please let me know if you'd like me to take a RAT before meeting in person.

Thanks for considering me to look after your pets and your home.

Peter was a wonderful house sitter. We came back to a very tidy home and garden and a very contented cat. We were so happy with Peter that we asked if he was available for a future sit but unfortunately was already booked for the dates required. We would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a house sitter in the ACT area.

We returned yesterday after three months away from Canberra. Peter cared for our house and chickens perfectly and was great at communicating with us while away. He is by far the best housesitter we have had over the years. If it was possible to give him more than five stars we most certainly would! We hope Peter will be available next year to house sit for us again.

Peter took excellent care of our cat, and he kept us up to date with photos. Our house was spotless on our return. and we look forward to having Peter do another cat/house sit in the near future. Thank you, Peter, for a great job

Peter is fantastic, the absolute ideal house and pet sitter. He is extremely conscientious and considerate, always prompt and thorough in his communications, detail oriented and very clean and tidy. Peter texted right away with any irregularities or questions he encountered with our home and pets, and he sent us lovely photos of our doggos having fun on walks with him so we knew they were in good hands. We would be very pleased to have Peter sit for us anytime!

Peter was thorough and great to deal with. Would recommend!
 
EMILY (Oxley ACT, Mar 2024 - 5 nights)
Peter was an excellent choice for looking after our elderly cat Silky and keeping the garden and pot plants watered. Everything was in great shape when we returned and Silky looked relaxed and well cared for. He took the time to note how we like things done and sent us regular photos. We would definitely ask him to help us out again.

Peter did a great job looking after our two cats and our home for two weeks. Very responsible and great communication. We'd happily have him house sit for us again. Thanks, Peter!
 
ANDY (Belconnen ACT, Dec 2023 - 2 weeks)
Just returned from our overseas trip and found our beloved Louisa safe and sound and also the house in excellent condition. Whilst we were away Peter kept us up to date with photos and reports which we really appreciated. And thanks for driving us into the bus stop to start our holiday too Peter. That was really appreciated. Happy to call on Peter next time if we need a sitter. Colin & Elizabeth

We were so happy to have Peter mind our home and precious pussycat! Peter has been fantastic- so easy to communicate with and he left our house spotless - he is so good we want him back to do more housesitting in the near future! Thank you Peter - you have been a Godsend for us!
