Do you want the trip of a lifetime? Simply consider us to be your house/pet sitters while you're away! Your holiday will be carefree, knowing we're caring for your pets & home.
Anyway, hello there!
We are a responsible, professional High School Teacher / Entrepreneur couple. We are currently travelling all around Australia! :)
Blake is from the Blue Mountains, NSW & Sandy is originally from Gothenburg (Sweden). We feel very blessed so far to have looked after over 40 different lovely houses and have met such wonderful people and their pets while house sitting since 2014.
Blake, originally from the middle of NSW, has had experience with animals of all kinds and Sandy has had her fair share too. Some of the animals we've cared for in the past have included dogs, cats, horses, cows, poultry, fish, guinea pigs, snakes & other reptiles, and much more. Blake is an an expert with fish and marine tanks. As you can see, we have a great deal of experience with animals of all kinds and are happy and confident in our ability to look after your pets if you have any! We are also able to look after your garden while you are away.
We have no problems with collecting mail, doing the required jobs around the house, keeping your property immaculate as well as being in contact with you, sending updates and photos of your garden and pets, or simply a happy snap or two of us relaxing on your back deck soaking up the rays, reading a book! We understand that peace of mind is essential for you to enjoy your time away.
We are non smokers, non drinkers (*Sandy enjoys a glass of wine every now and then) and would really appreciate if the house is clean and located in a peaceful location, preferably somewhere to enjoy natural surroundings such as the ocean/beach, bush, parks, or lakes. Blake absolutely loves his sport which he has been playing since he was knee high to a grasshopper and Sandy has danced for many years. We love walks along the beach, bike riding, snorkelling - any kind of fitness really - and our creative pursuits.
Blake has a Bachelor of Music and Master of Teaching with his main instruments being piano and saxophone which he has been playing for a bit over 20yrs. Sandy has an Advanced Diploma in Tourism and loves to travel and see the world.
Blake has a police clearance check completed through his school teaching and Sandy has got her National Police Certificate as well as a Swedish police check. We also have glowing character and house sit references so if needed, please contact us so we can forward the desired information to you.
Please don't hesitate to message us regarding any questions you may have.
Thanks for taking a look at at our profile and we look forward to hearing from you!
Regards,
Blake and Sandy

What can I say??
Brilliant,brilliant house/pet sitters.
Sandy and Blake came to our home prior to our sit.
Our dog Chaos can be quite shy but she took to them both immediately.
We discussed our needs and expectations and we were thrilled with them in every aspect.
Communication was great right from the beginning
Upon returning after 4 months away our house, pool and garden were maintained beautifully.
Our dog Chaos was in tip top shape having regular walks, runs and ball games.
She was ... MORE
I would highly recommend Blake and Sandy as house sitters. They helped us out at the last minute and kept our place very tidy. When we got home it was like no one had been there except for the amazing Swedish chocolate they left for us. I can't thank them enough for looking after our cat and take great care of our place. If you are looking for someone to house sit I would highly recommend Blake and Sandy.
