Lisa and Dennis took care of our house and dogs for five weeks while we were traveling. From the moment they arrived we felt confident leaving our dogs and house in their care and even though we were on the other side of the world we were never worried. There was good communication throughout and we came home to calm and happy dogs and a well cared for home. We appreciated the effort Lisa put in to help our newest rescue continue to adjust to his new home. They would be welcomed back anytim... Continue Reading

House-sitting for Elinor was an excellent experience. She left instructions and made sure I had everything I needed during the stay. Molly is a wonderful little dog—gentle, friendly, and full of personality. She likes long walks on the beach haha. The home is great and in a nice part of Baja. I would gladly sit for Elinor and Molly again and highly recommend them to other sitters.

Deb was a wonderful house sitter! My dog, Romeo, was well taken care of with lots of special attention in my absence. Deb was a delightful houseguest, very conscientious in taking care of the house and flexible in working with the circumstances that came up. I'd gladly recommend Deb as reliable, caring, and a good communicator.

Wendy and Kenny were wonderful house and pet sitters. They are great folks, too! They took the time to send us updates on our dog regularly, and made sure they understood her needs and personality! She got lots of walks and attention. In addition, they went "above and beyond", as our house is for sale, and they readied it for several showings in our absence. That meant they had to adjust their schedules several times, and we really appreciated that. Kenny even fixed a plumbing problem ... Continue Reading

Staying at Toni's and caring for her pup, Romeo, was a lovely experience. I had a two-day lapse between a previous housesit and this one. Toni graciously invited me to stay at her house prior to her trip. I felt like I was staying in an Airbnb as her acts of kindness and hospitality were non-stop. Romeo was a love with his soft, white fur and cuddly personality. The location was perfect, in the midst of shopping and restaurants and so close to the Ajijic malecon. I totally enjoyed getting to ... Continue Reading

It was a pleasure to hang out with Roxy, the dog, and Sylvester, the cat for a week in Jan's lovely Mirasol home. Jan was very kind to pick me up at my Airbnb on the day of her departure. She then spent several hours with me to show me around the area, in particular Ajijic and the Lakeside Community Center where there are many classes and activities. She pointed out many restaurants and grocery stores so I would immediately know where to get food once she left. She also gave me a thorough run... Continue Reading

She pointed out many restaurants and grocery stores so I would immediately know where to get food once she left. She also gave me a thorough rundown of the ins and outs of her house and was available to answer questions by text when I needed her help. All of this made my stay so much easier as this was my first time in the Lake Chapala area. I would highly recommend this sit.

This was my first assignment through housesitmexico and I had an amazing experience in San Miguel de Allende. Marianne is an all around beautiful person, her home is immaculate and she has an adorable friend in Kimi cat. Marianne couldn't have been more welcoming. Communication ahead of time was excellent and once I arrived, she took the time to show me around the city, get groceries, introduce me to her neighbours and ensure I was settled comfortably.

Cindy and John were awesome house and pet sitters! We have one dog who requires special medications, and 2 cats that have to be fed differently. John contacted us while we were gone to clarify one of the foods, so I really appreciated his conscientiousness. They left the house clean and laundered their sheets and towels, a nice surprise! John even changed several light bulbs, one of which was broken at the base and needed to be removed carefully. They drove their car here and had to nav... Continue Reading

John even changed several light bulbs, one of which was broken at the base and needed to be removed carefully. They drove their car here and had to navigate past massive highway blockages created by farmers who were demonstrating for higher prices for their corn. Tractors blocked roads everywhere and backed up traffic for miles, day after day. John contacted me several days ahead to assure me that they were monitoring the situation and would be sure to come even if they had come by air instead of driving. I truly appreciated their commitment to us. We highly recommend John and Cindy and we hope they will come back to house sit for us again!

Stephanie was absolutely fantastic. She looked after my cat, my dog, and all my plants while I was away in Macedonia, and everything was perfect when I returned. My pets were clearly well cared for, relaxed, and happy, and my plants looked great. She sent regular updates and photos, which certainly gave me peace of mind — but honestly, it was everything about her that made me feel completely at ease. I met her a couple of weeks before the house sit and immediately felt confident in her. I wou... Continue Reading

Debra did an astounding job. My animals were well cared for. My small dog who was on leash was attacked by a bigger dog off leash, and she handled it as well as I would have. She left the house in pristine condition. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a house/pet sitter.

This sit was fantastic! Kat and Mark are wonderful and very gracious hosts who responded quickly, clearly and kindly when I communicated with them about anything. They offered great advice on places to go, to visit and a godsend to offer their vehicle to adventure many of the surrounding sites. I was a little uncertain about caring for so many gatitos (I've cared for many but not THIS many) but each has his or her own unique and wonderful personality, and we had a lot of chatter and cuddle...

This sit was fantastic! Kat and Mark are wonderful and very gracious hosts who responded quickly, clearly and kindly when I communicated with them about anything. They offered great advice on places to go, to visit and a godsend to offer their vehicle to adventure many of the surrounding sites. I was a little uncertain about caring for so many gatitos (I've cared for many but not THIS many) but each has his or her own unique and wonderful personality, and we had a lot of chatter and cuddles and so well behaved, they interact amongst themselves marvelously. Daily cat tasks, feedings and snacks were well explained and made for a quick and simple "cat-induced" schedule that was easily manageable - and supplies were a plenty. The house is well kept, clean and in a quiet neighborhood about 20 minutes by car from Centro (and about 45 by bus) and has all the amenities needed nearby including restaurants and tiendas and great greenbelt with a walking/running/biking path. I would be happy to sit for Kat and Mark and "the crew" again in the future.

Daniel was an amazing sitter. Molly warmed right up to him and he walked and fed her regularly. Since my car was with a mechanic at the time, he drove me to meet my ride about 15 (or more) miles away. He's very personable and responsible..
