About

We finished work as a teacher/computer analyst near/in London a couple of years ago and moved to Dorset. We travelled to Australia (and many other countries) for three months soon after. We returned to Australia to house-sit a number of properties in Perth and the surrounding area a year later (please read our references from our stay). We really enjoyed looking after our furry friends and their homes, including the warm/hot weather during our cold, wet winter months in England.
We live in a large, beautiful chalet bungalow, of which we are very proud. We work hard to keep it clean and tidy and have spent much of our time changing the layout and decorating. We know we would take care of your home too. We are a non-smoking, 50-ish couple with three children in their 20s and two tortoises. We love all animals, walking in the countryside/by the beach and gardening. We have both grown up with pets and miss the company of our pet Cavalier King Charles spaniel.
We are again looking forward to escaping the winter months at home (while the tortoises are in hibernation) and will be available preferably for a 2 week/month/two month appointment between January and March.

Jane and Tony did a sit for my home and dog for 2 weeks. I only met them once before I left but felt very comfortable with them straight away. When I arrived home, the house was spotless. More so than when I left! While I was away they kept me updated on my dog so I felt assured he was being well looked after. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable house sitters.

I am so delighted to be able to write a glowing review for our house and pet sitters Jane and Tony. Both Jane and Tony and Ray and myself took a leap of trust in that we didn't even meet until the day of car key handover at the airport, due to the fact our home was approximately 3 hrs drive away! We had many email conversations prior and this couple are very genuine. I am a little ocd with my home but Jane and Tony were possibly more so! Our home was immaculate upon our return! As for our two beloved cats,,, we feel they have been loved greatly, they were very content and happy upon our return, even searching Jane and Tony's bedroom! I think they miss them! Jane and Tony went over and above with their service in that they even returned our car with a full tank of petrol, and even bought us a lovely gift. We could not have asked for a more lovely and dedicated couple and we Highly recommend Jane and Tony to house and pet sit! We were extremely fortunate to have Jane and Tony respond to our ad and hope to keep in touch in the future as friends. Thank you sincerely from Lee, Ray, Yoshi and Xander.

Jane & Tony house-sat for me in January 2019 for 2 weeks, caring for my 2 Beagliers. They did a magnificent job and I would recommend them 100%. They were very easy to contact and establish a rapport with via FaceTime, prior to our first meet & greet which was after they arrived in Australia and just a day before I flew out! I felt totally comfortable leaving my precious dogs with Jane & Tony, as my dogs were already so comfortable with them by the time I left. I received updates while I was away, and on my return I found my home cleaner than when I had left, my gardens immaculate (Jane & Tony had clearly spent the entire 2 weeks weeding!), and my dogs in a state of calm happiness which was delightful to behold. I would have no hesitation in booking Jane & Tony again for a future stay.
