I had such a wonderful experience in Jill’s VIlla in Chacala. I am writing this a while later as she wasn’t on this site for a while. I noticed she had a new sit up so I thought I’d take a moment to write a review. If you get the opportunity; take it. Chacala is a lovely little town. I enjoyed it so very much. I rented a golf cart to get around and that was perfect. Jill has a property manager and a housekeeper that are very helpful. I loved my time there. I would do it again if ... Continue Reading

This is the 4th time Sam and David have watched our 2 mini Schnauzers, and we would never consider anyone else! They love our dogs like their own, and our Schnauzers love them just as much. My husband and I feel so comfortable leaving them in charge of our pups and house. We really appreciated the daily pics or videos that Sam and David would send us. Many times they were of our dogs asleep in their laps getting belly rubs! They were very good about following my feeding guidelines with sup... Continue Reading

My husband and I feel so comfortable leaving them in charge of our pups and house. We really appreciated the daily pics or videos that Sam and David would send us. Many times they were of our dogs asleep in their laps getting belly rubs! They were very good about following my feeding guidelines with supplements added. Sam and David even brushed my girls' teeth and beards when needed per my requests. When they departed, our house was as clean as if our cleaning lady had been there that day! Thank you so much, Sam and David; you're the best pet sitters ever!

We recently did a pet/house sit for Karen in Guadalajara. Her dog Lucy was a joy to look after and wonderful companion for Karen. She accompanied us on trips for groceries, restaurants and to the local market- because she is so small, we would take her backpack for when she got tired. She loved the attention people would give her. When we arrived Karen was very helpful explaining all our duties and the local area. We will miss Lucy. Marilyn and Wayne

Once again we enjoyed a wonderful sit for Kimball and Russell at Riviara Alta. Luna and Evita, the cutest pair of Miniature Schnauzers ever were excited to see us again. From morning kisses to afternoon cuddles we just loved being with them. Their beautiful home was spotless as always. Many thanks to Carmen who carefully cleans. Thanks also to Francisco who keeps the landscape trimmed and inviting. Communication was clear and responsive. Despite their busy travel schedule, Kimball and ... Continue Reading

Once again we enjoyed a wonderful sit for Kimball and Russell at Riviara Alta. Luna and Evita, the cutest pair of Miniature Schnauzers ever were excited to see us again. From morning kisses to afternoon cuddles we just loved being with them. Their beautiful home was spotless as always. Many thanks to Carmen who carefully cleans. Thanks also to Francisco who keeps the landscape trimmed and inviting. Communication was clear and responsive. Despite their busy travel schedule, Kimball and Russell responded quickly to any questions or concerns we had. We felt welcomed by neighbors and joined them for a monthly dinner out in Ajijic. Afternoon socials at the community center were lively and a great opportunity to connect with new and old aquaintenances. The lending library there was another plus. We would return again and again to this sit. Thank you again for inviting us. It is the best Christmas gift we could ever ask for!

Courtney pet sit for my sweet schnauzer for a couple weeks over the holidays and I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. I travel A LOT and use A LOT of sitters and most are wonderful but Courtney is by far my favorite. She is very attentive to my dog and truly loved caring for her and it showed. She is also very comfortable with all things Mexico so I never had to worry if she had questions or concerns as she is very independent and capable and needed zero hand holding. I can't te...

I can't tell you the peace of mind that that gave me when I was away from my sweet pup. Highly recommend her and I will definitely use her again if she isn't already booked up!!

My humans took a trip and being very progressive they decided that I should choose my temporary replacement human to keep me safe, feed me, play with me, take me for walks & runs, give me belly rubs on demand, shower me with the love and affection I deserve, and keep my home clean and tidy the way I like it. After asking if I’d like the human named Eric to be the one, whom I met when he was taking care of a neighbor dog, Milo, my tail started to wag. I have no direct control over this tail wa...

After asking if I’d like the human named Eric to be the one, whom I met when he was taking care of a neighbor dog, Milo, my tail started to wag. I have no direct control over this tail wagging thing, but my humans thought it was meaningful. And then Eric came not long after. I was SO happy to see him! When my humans left for their trip, Eric took me for walks, gave me lots of belly rubs, took care of me when I was startled by the fireworks, gave me lots of treats, played ball with me, and...played ball with me again. And he took me to places where I could run free! I sure hope my humans take me to those places. That was fun and sometimes muddy (I didn't like the baths after, though). We had a lot of fun together. He’s the best. I missed my regular humans but Eric is second best to them. I hope Eric comes back again so we can continue our friendship. P.S.: From Chica's 'humans:' Eric is not only responsible and attentive, he is such a wonderful person. We feel fortunate to know him. Our dog, Chica got lucky, as did we.

Recently, I had Marilyn and Wayne (expats living in Mexico for a number of years, but originally from Canada) come and stay at my place here in Santa Teresita, Guadalajara, Mexico for 2 full weeks. They were responsible for looking after my Chihuahua Lucy Puppet, water and look after the plants, and refill the hummingbird feeder on the patio. I had a very good feeling from them since our first communications on the platform, then moved to WhatsApp. They are two individuals who I would hig... Continue Reading

Recently, I had Marilyn and Wayne (expats living in Mexico for a number of years, but originally from Canada) come and stay at my place here in Santa Teresita, Guadalajara, Mexico for 2 full weeks. They were responsible for looking after my Chihuahua Lucy Puppet, water and look after the plants, and refill the hummingbird feeder on the patio. I had a very good feeling from them since our first communications on the platform, then moved to WhatsApp. They are two individuals who I would highly recommend as they were punctual, responsible, and went what I feel to be above and beyond the posted sitting posting. They even sharpened my knives! I also really liked that they sent me photos every few days of Lucy and of the plants, I felt connected to my property and to them through these messages and photos. Overall, I highly recommend Marilyn and Wayne! If you are interested in knowing more, please do not hesitate to contact me directly. You will be in good hands! Sincerely, Karen P.

Sada and Alex were fantastic hosts with a beautiful family. They have a lovely home in a gated community, which is extremely safe for solo sitters. San Angel is a resourceful, walkable neighborhood. Home and pet instructions were clear and simple. Pepper is a sweetheart and a joy to care for. She’s easygoing and communicates clearly if she needs anything. It was truly a treat. I would happily return for another sit.

Oksana and Raul were the answer to our prayers. Our regular sitter was unavailable and we wanted to spend Christmas with my sister in Puerto Vallarta. They arrived on time and took great care of our home and our two dogs/two cats. Since they arrived a couple of days early, we had time to get to know them and to show them our amazing hometown of Oaxaca -- at Christmas! We talked a couple of times while we were away but everything was always fine. They kept the house and pets in great shap... Continue Reading

From the start I knew I would love this sit. Not only was communication with Becky super friendly and inviting from the initial application but continued throughout the sit. She was so helpful with the area (apr. 2.5 km from the beach), transportation & aps and her home. The sit itself was wonderful, Playa is beautiful during the holidays and BOXA, ah, Boxa is an absolute joy and one of the sweetest dogs!

The sit itself was wonderful, Playa is beautiful during the holidays and BOXA, ah, Boxa is an absolute joy and one of the sweetest dogs! She is such a happy girl, enjoys being playful at times, loves her walks (and not afraid to subtly let me know when it was time - and time for her treat when we returned) so she also kept me active as we journeyed through so many fun & energetic neighborhoods in the area a couple times per day, as well as the occasional errand. She gives great nose "boops" too. I would not hesitate to sit for Becky and Boxa again. Happy New Year.

Valencia is very kind and conscientious, and I highly recommend her. She kept me up to date with photos of my cats, sometimes sitting on her lap. They liked her very much, I’m not sure they even cared when I got home! The house was spotless when I returned. I hope she’ll house sit for me again in the future.
