Matt & JP

More information about this house sitter

We’re Matt & Justine (JP) - a married couple with a deep commitment to trust, care, and capability.

Together, we own and manage Stable Hill Farm across 140 acres in Glenmaggie and Clyde, Victoria, where we raise high-welfare Angus cattle and pasture-fed poultry. We live and work on the land, combining deep rural experience with modern professionalism.

Matt is a Tech Founder & Business Growth Architect, working remotely as a Fractional CTO and product strategist for Australian startups. Alongside his tech work, he oversees our livestock and land operations. With decades of hands-on experience in animal care, machinery, and off-grid systems, Matt brings a rare balance of strategic thinking and practical ability.

JP is an ANKC-registered Labrador breeder with broad expertise in cattle, sheep, poultry, and domestic animal husbandry. With a background in hospitality, school support, and family care, she brings warmth, structure, and calm to every space. She's especially skilled at maintaining peaceful homes and helping animals feel secure while their owners are away.

After nearly 30 years of marriage and building a multi-generational farmstead, we now enjoy making ourselves available to help other property owners when they need a break.

What We Offer

We split our time between Clyde and Glenmaggie, living off-grid and working remotely via Starlink satellite internet. Because we both work from home - or the paddock - your animals will have consistent companionship and care throughout the day.

We’re experienced with:

- Dogs (especially Labradors and Border Collies)
- Cats, poultry, and small animals
- Livestock care – sheep, cattle, goats
- Property maintenance and farm machinery
- Gardening, fencing, and remote monitoring (security systems, tech setups)

We're non-smokers, clean, punctual, resourceful, and practical - the kind of couple who’ll leave your home just as you’d hope to find it. Read more...
