Sandie

70, Retired Nurse

Hi I am a 70 year old single woman who has travelled around Australia. I am a non smoker and social drinker.. I no longer have pets of my own. I have family who live in South Australia. I have been house sitting for the past 5 years and really love what I do.. I am happy to look after all kinds of properties and animals both large and small. I owned a 20 acre hobby farm some years ago and am comfortable with horses and other large and small animals. I enjoy pottering in the garden and caring for indoor plants. I have worked as a nurse and held many senior positions in health so am responsible, reliable, honest and a good problem solver. I have many excellent referees that you are welcome to speak with. My housesits have always been through word of mouth and repeat bookings. Thank you for reviewing my profile. Please feel free to contact me at any time to discuss your needs...
Cheers Sandie
Referees:

We do not wish to recommend Sandie, as we will want her to come to our home in the future.
All jokes aside, Sandie was recommended to us by a friend, Sandie is a lady who has lots of experience looking after people's homes and fur children.
When we return home form our holiday, it was like we had not been away the house was as we left it.
The dogs were well looked after.
Sandie is a honest lovely lady
Our star rating would be 5 out of 5 .

We felt comfortable with Sandie immediately. We have 6 cats and 2 little Maltese dogs. With all the animals quirks leaving them in a strangers care was a little daunting but Sandie kindly gave us progress reports whilst we were away, allaying our fears. We came home to a happy bunch of pets. No problems at all and we would not hesitate to ask Sandie to sit for us again. Jak S. Meadows

Sandie has been my house sitter when I have travelled both in South Australia and overseas. On three occasions now she has cared for my dogs and chooks exceptionally well and as if they were her own. I am a keen gardener and require that it is cared for at a very high standard and during my time away Sandie has done that for me. I know when I am away I have no need to worry about anything at home as Sandie is very reliable, responsible and trustworthy

To whom it may concern.

Sandie Deluca was recommended to us through friends who have used her service for their small acreage property. Sandie arrived at our property after keeping in contact with us prior to her arrival. Due to covid we were unable to take our normal several months winter away from SA but did manage a 2 week break which Sandie happily took care of our horses, ducks and garden.

Sandie was responsible for feeding horses twice daily inclusive of rugging/unrugging, checking hooves and applying treatment if required. Ducks required top up of feed and checking waters. Our garden of roses thrived under sandies care and we were very happy with the care of our property which also required some hand weed spraying and picking up of fallen branches.

Sandie stayed in our self contained cottage which was kept clean and in good order. We are fastidious property owners and we both felt very comfortable with Sandie and felt confident she would be able to sort any situation. She is friendly, honest and flexible and we would recommend her to others.

To whom it may concern,

Sandie de Luca has house sat my house over the summer and this included watering my plants and maintaining the pool. I found her to be competent, respectful of my belongings and capable. This enabled me to holiday knowing that the property was well tended and gave me peace of mind during my trip.


A very happy and pleasant house sitter, whom I would thoroughly recommend.


Regards,

This being our first ever House Sit we were very nervous. Sandra was excellent and made us feel at ease straight away. Our house, pets and garden were left perfectly we would give Sandra 5 Stars Fingers crossed Sandra can return next year for our annual holiday away. If anyone out there is worried about leaving their house, pets etc. don't be. If you can get a house sitter like Sandra, you will be at ease straight away. Thank you Sandra ... MORE

We found Sandie to be an excellent House sitter when we were away recently. She has a great personality that shows out in all that she does. Great with our Dog (Bella) and also looked after our cottage beautifully . She even trained Bella to stay out of the bathroom when it's in use!! And that training has stuck, Thanks Sandie ! It is obvious that Sandie loves Dogs as well as people in general, Her communication with us was excellent and she coped with all our request. We would like to highly ... MORE

Sandie was an excellent house sitter for six weeks for us. She looked after our house as if it was her home. She cared for and fed our animals (dog, horse and two sheep) so well. She kept us well informed by phone, messages and even photos of our animals! We would recommend Sandie to everyone, and certainly have her house sit for us again. Thank you Sandie. Marie and Mick.

Sandra was wonderful. The house and garden were well maintained and the cats relaxed and happy. Her communication was brilliant, and she handled anything that arose with a calm and sensible head. We are more than happy to have her back.

I loved having Sandie care for my house and our cat Gadget! She came and met us and was just lovely and I felt so confident leaving the house in her hands! She kept in touch while we were away and left the house looking perfect and our cat was so happy and I think enjoyed all the extra attention! I would love to use Sandie again and have no hesitation recommending her to look after your home and pets!
 
FIONA (Birkenhead SA, Apr 2021 - 1 week)
My family and I found Sandie to be an awesome house sitter. She took such care of our home and it was so clean when we returned. Our dog was well looked after and the few care instructions we left in regards to our dog were followed to the letter. We would highly recommend her for housesitting and pet sitting and look forward to having Sandie sit for us again.
 
TRACY (Mt George SA, Oct 2020 - 2 days)
: I met Tracy prior to my sit and was shown around and met "Stout" my companion for my sit. When I arrived the house was neat clean and tidy and Tracy had left me a list of things I might need to find as well as instructions for Stouts food. The garden is so peaceful and relaxing with an abundance ... MORE

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
