About Sandy V.

68 years old | 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.

June 2019

It was so important to me that I could travel and know that my pets and my home were well taken care of. Sandy and Rick were the best house sitters possible. I was able to travel without concerns. My dog, Lily, is very timid and does not take well to people she does not know. Rick and Sandy made it a priority to win her over and they did. When I came home I could see how much Lily enjoyed them. They communicated with me during my absence assuring me that all was well. The house was kept immaculate, cleaner then when I left it. They repaired a few things around the house and maintained the water system that was giving them trouble. They were so kind, they shopped for me so that my fridge was not empty on my return, they even had a dinner waiting for me. I hope they are available next year when I travel.
