Mark & Sandy — a trusted house and property sitting couple, travelling Australia full-time.
We've spent the past five years living full-time in our caravan, caretaking homes and properties right across Australia. From suburban homes to working farms, we approach every sit the same way: with attention to detail, genuine care, and the steady, reliable communication that lets owners truly relax while they're away.
Cows, chickens, horses, alpacas, dogs, cats and gardens — we've even helped run a flower farm. Daily routines and basic property upkeep come naturally, and very little is unfamiliar.
Owners consistently come home to an immaculate house — the same standard a property needs for turning over guest or Airbnb accommodation between stays.
We've cared for homes while owners were overseas, with regular photos and video calls as standard. Mark's background is 20+ years leading remote teams; Sandy's is 20 years in aged care and nursing — so proactive, no-surprises updates and a genuine duty of care are second nature.
We've adjusted our own plans to fit owners' changing travel, and many of the families we sit for book us back again and again — some now plan their holidays around our availability.
The house was cleaner than we left it — they even fixed the squeaky doors. Their communication was flawless throughout.
They house-sat while we were overseas. Our animals were well cared for and we came home to a spotless house and a beautiful garden.
Our home, gardens, dogs, cats and chickens were all happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Sandy & Mark.
They went above and beyond during their stay while we were overseas. We now talk about booking our holidays around their availability.
Whether it's a fortnight or a six-month stay, we'd love to hear about your place, your animals and what matters most to you.
