Engineer
Sandy is from Canada, Rick is from Australia, we met in Africa and now we live in Canada. Sandy is a semi-retired engineer while Rick still works sometimes remotely as a computer programmer. We have worked in North America, Europe, Africa and South America and have four different passports between us - Australia, UK, the Netherlands and Canada. We speak English and Dutch, and can get by in French and German.
Since we sold our house in 2019, we decided to travel more and join Nomador to enjoy life in different countries. Our plan is to move to France one day!
We love animals but our lifestyle does not make it easy to own them, so we enjoy looking after other people's pets
In Hawaii we owned and managed a successful vacation rental (over 50 five-star reviews), so we are experienced with taking care of a house. We are non-smokers.

Sandy (Canadienne) est ingénieure semi-retraité et Rick (Australien) est programmeur informatique (aussi semi-retraité). Nous vivons au Canada. Nous avons travaillé en Amérique du Nord, en Europe, en Afrique et en Amérique du Sud et avons quatre passeports différents entre nous - l’Australie, le Royaume-Uni, les Pays-Bas et le Canada. Nous parlons anglais et néerlandais, et nous pouvons nous débrouiller en français et en allemand.
Depuis que nous avons vendu notre maison en 2019, nous avons décidé de voyager plus et de rejoindre Nomador pour profiter de la vie dans différents pays. Notre plan est de déménager en France un jour
Nous aimons les animaux, mais avec notre vie nomade, il est impossible d’avoir un animal de compagnie - donc nous aimons être avec les animaux des autres
A Hawaii, nous avons eu une location de vacances (plus de 50 avis cinq étoiles), alors nous avons l’expérience de gérer une maison. Nous sommes non-fumeurs.

We travel often and have had the benefit of friends and family to house sit for our six to eight weeks travels to our place in France. This past Fall we tried Nomador and had the wonderful luck of finding Rick and Sandy who house sat for us during September and October. Friends and family? They have been pushed to the curb. Rick and Sandy were by far the best house sitters we have ever enjoyed. They maintained our property, both inside and out, nearly perfectly. It is not an exaggeration to say that when we returned the place was in better shape than when they left. They dealt with an emergency or two while we were away. For example; we have a very large house with multiple smoke detectors. While away ALL of the detectors decided it was time to expire (not just the battery, but the whole units themselves). Rick and Sandy got out the ladders and replaced them all for us. There are other examples, too many to mention, but one very important thing should be mentioned: they were wonderful with our cats (both of which basically ignored us upon our return, preferring the company of Rick and Sandy). At any rate, it is not possible to overstate how wonderful these people are. We are lucky that they have agreed to return for another long house sit in Spring, and then watch over our place in France in Summer. If I were a rich man (violins enter here) I would hire them full time at whatever price to keep them in our lives. Oh, and I should say that we have also become friends..

Sandy and her partner Rick were extraordinarily judicious sitters! They stayed for almost four weeks. The took excellent care of my four cats while providing me with frequent pictures and updates during my absence. They played and gave them affection. In fact, they bonded with my pets rather quickly. Upon my return, my cats were heathy, happy and calm. They are honest and responsible people. I highly recommend them.

Sandy & Rick were fantastic pet sitters! Here for a month, they showered our two fur-babies with lots of love and took great care of our home and property. They provided frequent updates with photos, and even chopped up a tree that fell on the fence line! Highly recommend them to all homeowners!

Sandy and Rick were the most perfect dog sitters. They took such a great care of our dog Gormur. He probably never got as many walks as he did with them. He took to them quickly which is not his thing. They also took great care of our apartment and it was sparkling clean when we got back. We can highly recommend them to take care of house and a pet.
