I was fortunate to house sit and pet sit for Rhonda in La Manzanilla during September and October of this year. First-time and seasoned house sitters will be floored at the beauty of her home and with the small village of La Manzanilla. Rhonda is a charming woman, generous and clear in what she expects from a house sitter. Apart from making certain her house was secure, I also took care of her pets – eight cats, two dogs and one horse. Those animals were a joy and were good companion... Continue Reading

First-time and seasoned house sitters will be floored at the beauty of her home and with the small village of La Manzanilla. Rhonda is a charming woman, generous and clear in what she expects from a house sitter. Apart from making certain her house was secure, I also took care of her pets – eight cats, two dogs and one horse. Those animals were a joy and were good companions. La Manzanilla may be a bit off the beaten path, but that is its charm. This assignment was by far the best I’ve had.Patrick housesitter December 21, 2018
Our experience looking after 2 dogs and 3 cats in Pátzcuaro for Meg and Fred was wonderful. Meg spent a lot of time up front getting to know us through emails and Skype which made it a lot easier when we arrived. We also spent a night before they left and a night when they got back to ensure that everything was as it should be. We were fortunate to have been able to stay in their lovely home which was close to the Centro. I fell in love with all three cats, each with their own awesome persona... Continue Reading
Our experience looking after 2 dogs and 3 cats in Pátzcuaro for Meg and Fred was wonderful.

We also spent a night before they left and a night when they got back to ensure that everything was as it should be. We were fortunate to have been able to stay in their lovely home which was close to the Centro. I fell in love with all three cats, each with their own awesome personality. Their two dogs were great, friendly and loving, especially when you give them lots of belly rubs. We too the dogs for daily walks up the mountainside near their home. We felt very privileged to have their fur babies entrusted to our care and look forward to coming back to their beautiful city in the future. Kalon and SueSusan & Kalon housesitter December 21, 2018
These two were great. My house was cleaner when I got home than it was when I left. They somehow managed to get my cats to stop fighting. They also removed the weeds from my potted plants.

Gigi and I just sat for Dianne and Guillermo for 5 days, and you could not ask for more gracious hosts. Their home was comfortable and spacious, and every amenity you could possibly need or want was available for our use. Their instructions were carefully written out and so easy to follow. They answered all of our questions promptly and politely. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, and there are plenty of shops, markets, restaurants, etc. within a 15 minute walk. Naturally, the best part of t... Continue Reading

Naturally, the best part of the sit was Che, their delightful little fur baby. Che is just too cute for words! He’s quiet, obedient, lovable and so easy to care for. We fell in love with him and look forward to caring for him again. A special thanks to Dianne and Guillermo for their hospitality. It was such a pleasure sitting for them Gerry and GigiGerry & Gigi Housesitter and Home owner December 14, 2018
One of our favourite sits ever! Joan and Randy are the ultimate house sit home owners, they are prompt communicators and generous hosts. They made us feel genuinely valued as sitters for their lively little puppy Namo and independent cat Bodhi. Their home is comfortable and inviting, with every amenity provided for a short or long sit, plus it is very close to everything Ajijic has to offer. No need for a car to enjoy the area as there are regular buses and taxis. We are so happy to... Continue Reading

Gerry and Gigi were wonderful sitters! They answered all our questions, arrived promptly, followed our instructions exactly, checked in with us while we were away, cleaned up after themselves and left our home immaculate. Our dog, Che, came up to them right away when they met for pets and belly rubs. When we arrived home he was happy, following all of his routines and even went to the bedroom they stayed in looking for them. Gerry and Gigi are a friendly couple and we appreciate that they dou...

We would definitely have them sit again if available and feel confident and comfortable having them watch our fur baby and home.Dianne homeowner December 13, 2018
Gigi and I just finished a 5-day sit for Dianne and Guillermo and their totally cute and adorable fur baby, Che. Their home is divine with every amenity you could possibly want or need.

I highly recommend Sandy and Rob as house and pet sitters. Of course my main concern was for my sweat little doggie Coco. She is shy with strangers and I was afraid that she would be difficult and they would never see her wonderful personality. I returned home to a beautifully brushed and happy animal. Halfway through my trip I received a pic of Coco reaching up for Rob and I new instantly that they had become friends. Rob also did little chores around the house which I never expected. What a...

Halfway through my trip I received a pic of Coco reaching up for Rob and I new instantly that they had become friends. Rob also did little chores around the house which I never expected. What a nice surprise that was. I returned to my house just as I left it. It was obvious to me that they respected my private belongings. This was my first experience having sitters and I was a bit nervous about it. After having Rob and Sandy I am now completely relaxed about my next venture. You will be happy choosing Rob and Sandy to take good care of your house and pets.Judy homeowner December 01, 2018
This was a wonderful first sit for us in San Miguel de Allende and in México. Our charge, Coco, soon lost her shyness and had us playing games and running around in the garden, she was a delight to care for. She slept quietly in a crate in the guest bedroom with us at night. Judy provided good information about the city and how to get to her house from the airport. Also, soon after our arrival she took us to the supermarket and helped us find a cell phone shop where we got a local sim. ... Continue Reading

We loved the garden and made good use of the plunge pool too. Her maid and gardener were very kind and also gave us a lot of information about San Miguel. We would recommend this to anyone wanting a quiet sit yet be close enough, by short taxi ride or a walk to the bus, to explore the centre of San Miguel.Sandy & Rob housesitter December 01, 2018
Patrick was fantastic! He had 8 cats, 2 dogs and a horse to take care of and I returned home to all of them accounted for, as well as all being fat and happy! He was extremely respectful of our home and property and asked all the right questions. He approached this huge responsibility with a good sense of humour and truly cared for each animal. There were even a few that were so sad to see him go, he will know which ones I am writing about. Thank you Patrick, we hope you will return!

I have no reservations about recommending John as a house sitter. He and I corresponded over a period of weeks, working out logistics and getting to know each other. We were very impressed with his status as a cellist, conductor and professor of music, and his love of family, food, animals and travel. We arranged for him to stay with us for a day and night in order to show him around, and have him take us to the airport. We were in constant communication with John while we were away, and he k...

We arranged for him to stay with us for a day and night in order to show him around, and have him take us to the airport. We were in constant communication with John while we were away, and he kept us apprised of the situation at our home. John picked us up at the airport on our return as well. We arrived to a house that was kept in perfect order, thriving house plants and yard, and happy, healthy dogs. John stayed until the next day when we took him to the airport. While John was in our town, he discovered much more about the place than we knew after living here 3 years, and he shared it all with us. John is an accommodating, flexible, easy going person who cares for people and animals, and has become a friend.Gina & Javier Housesitter and Home owner November 06, 2018
