Rating: ????? Staying at Abigail’s and Glenn's home was an absolute pleasure. The house is beautiful, centrally located, and equipped with every commodity you could need. It’s the perfect space for relaxation, remote work, and even creative cooking if you enjoy spending time in the kitchen. The neighborhood is fantastic, with friendly and welcoming neighbors, and, of course, San Miguel itself is a vibrant, stunning town that’s always a joy to experience. Taking care of the two cats was an absolute highlight of the stay. Each has such a unique and endearing personality. They were both incredibly loving and friendly, making the experience fun and truly heartwarming. Spending time with them was a privilege, and their playful and affectionate nature added a lot of joy to my days. I would be more than happy to help out again in the future. Abigail and Glenn have created a wonderful space to stay, and it’s been an honor to assist with their home and pet-sitting needs. I highly recommend this house and the experience of being part of their lives for anyone considering a similar opportunity.Mike & Margarita Valverde housesitter December 10, 2024
Mike has been an incredible help with our house and pet sitting needs over the last several months. He started by assisting with two short trips, ensuring our cats were fed and everything was in order at home while we were away. For the third sit, which lasted a month, Mike went above and beyond. He stayed at our home, took care of our plants and cats, and managed the house, including coordinating with our gardener and housekeeper. And because Mexico, a small remodeling project extended lo...

He stayed at our home, took care of our plants and cats, and managed the house, including coordinating with our gardener and housekeeper. And because Mexico, a small remodeling project extended longer than expected, and Mike graciously took on the challenge of being a key communicator between us, the workers, and the construction manager. We are delighted to endorse Mike for his exceptional house and pet sitting services. Mike's communication, dedication, trustworthiness, and proactive approach have made him an invaluable asset to us. I highly recommend him for any house or pet sitting needs.Abigail homeowner December 09, 2024
We recently had the great pleasure of sitting for Helena and Jim and the adorable Miss Lola. It is a repeat sit for us and we were delighted to return. Helena and Jim as so kind and thoughtful, they know exactly how to make house sitters feel welcomed. Their home is extremely comfortable and has a lovely sense of tranquility. Oh, and the lake view is stunning!! We witnessed the most amazing sunsets from their patio. And ofcourse there is Lola. What a treat it was to care for this sweet pe... Continue Reading

She is playful and comical and so good natured. We found Lola be very low maintenance and we miss her. If you have the opportunity to sit for Helena and Jim, say "yes" without hesitation.Johanne & Doug housesitter December 08, 2024
Kelly and Doug are wonderful hosts, polite and very kind. Their house is beautiful and is located in a very nice neighborhood. It has tennis courts and a very comfortable pool. I spent incredible moments with their pair of beautiful and affectionate cats Brandy and Bandit, with whom I enjoyed a great relationship. Time really went by very quickly. It was a pleasant experience in every sense, especially the treatment I received from Kelly and Doug, who made me feel like part of their family, a... Continue Reading

Johanne and Doug have been friends for many years, starting from their first housesit for us. They sat for us recently while we were away for three weeks. They are kind and thoughtful in taking care of our home and they especially enjoyed being with our little girl. Lola can be fearful of new people but immediately attached herself to them. We felt comfortable being away as they sent photos of her often to remind us that Lola is a happy doggie! We would recommend them highly. They were boo... Continue Reading

We felt comfortable being away as they sent photos of her often to remind us that Lola is a happy doggie! We would recommend them highly. They were booked to sit for a neighbor, with a few days overlapping. Johanne stayed in our house and Doug stayed at the other house for three days. They are very adaptable. Consider having them as your sitter on your next vacation.Helena & Jim homeowner December 07, 2024
Deborah did a great job of housesitting for us. She took great care of our house and she really bonded with our dog Lia. I highly recommend her and I will certainly be inviting her back the next time we need a sitter.

Jan is a great host! Not only did she make sure I had everything needed for the sit, she went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and enjoyed my stay. Her home is as welcoming as she is. I was very comfortable. We got to spend some time together before and after the sit, and had a lovely time. Then there's the star of the house sit, Dulce! She is so sweet and adorable.

She loves her pets and walks, showing me around town to her favorite places. We got along great, playing in the garden and hanging out on the mirador, when she's not napping lol. She's great company and so easy to care for. This was a great sit overall in a lovely home, and I highly recommend it if you get the opportunity. See you next time Jan and Dulce!Celeste housesitter December 06, 2024
What a full cultural experience it was to housesit for Carlos recently for the month of August. His lovely four-bedroom house in the Historic Centre matches the beauty of Puebla, a designated UNESCO World Heritage site. The location is great, close to everything you need including many tourist spots, while being in a very quiet neighborhood. As an artist, I enjoyed the artwork, paintings, ceramic sculptures, furniture, textiles, and porcelain dishes. I came in a couple of days early to mee... Continue Reading
What a full cultural experience it was to housesit for Carlos recently for the month of August. His lovely four-bedroom house in the Historic Centre matches the beauty of Puebla, a designated UNESCO World Heritage site. The location is great, close to everything you need including many tourist spots, while being in a very quiet neighborhood. As an artist, I enjoyed the artwork, paintings, ceramic sculptures, furniture, textiles, and porcelain dishes. I came in a couple of days early to meet Juanita and Chui, his two small dogs, and get the lay of the land. Carlos is an excellent host, showing me the food markets nearby, preparing simple but meaningful meals often accompanied by his Opera singing and sometimes his friends. Yes, he is a professional singer. He is very social and has a brilliant mind with a love for people. By the time he left for his trip, I knew where the banks were located, best restaurants, galleries, interesting stores, massage/spa, internet service/assistance, had water in stock and a Doctor if needed. In the evenings when there was a short rainstorm, I left the metal doors/windows open to the courtyard and listened to music while reading a book. The courtyard has all kinds of beautiful flowers that I photographed. Watering a handful of plants was very easy. His home is an easy 15 minute walk to the Spanish Institute in Puebla in the Historic District where I took immersion language classes for three weeks. The walk home was filled with lunch, shopping, museums and churches. The dogs are very easy to love and care for. They walk once a day however I walked them more often as I like the exercise and so did they. Feeding and watering them is easy. I am returning in February for another housesit. I recommend Carlos with great affection. Thank you for everything, PamelaPamela & Kayo housesitter December 05, 2024
We very highly recommend Jose Luis! His English is better than our Spanish and he uses a translation app proficiently to make sure all communication is clear. Jose left our home cleaner than any other pet sitter ever has. He is extremely quiet and respectful and he has his own vehicle. He was very good with our two precious cats! They both seemed to like him very much and he was very affectionate with them as well. He was very good about cleaning their litter box, he checked it many times per... Continue Reading

He was very good about cleaning their litter box, he checked it many times per day and made sure their water dish was always clean and they were fed on time every day. The next time we need a sitter we will be sure to reach out to Jose as we would be happy to have him back anytime!Kelly & Doug Housesitter and Home owner December 05, 2024
I spent two amazing months at Cherie's beautiful home, taking care of Diego and Frida in September-October, and it was definitely my best experience house-sitting in Mexico.

Communication was super nice and fluid, and I really enjoyed our calls. The house is just lovely. Super cozy and comfortable with everything you need a... Continue Reading

The view from the terrace is breathtaking! The location is great, close to everything you need and many tourist spots, while being in a very quiet neighborhood. What can I say about little Diego and Frida? Two beautiful, calm kitties who are very well behaved, like to play and also sleep a lot. Very sweet and easy to care for, I really enjoyed their company! We're still in touch and would love to come back next year! Thanks for everything Cherie!Mauro housesitter December 04, 2024
Gloria and her beautiful pet "Bella" were a pleasant experience for me; from the first contact, when we met, she showed a warmth and closeness that I had not experienced before, smiling, polite and eager to understand my strange way of speaking English. Her house is beautiful and very well maintained with an impressive view of the Chapala lagoon, her terrace and garden are very cozy and beautiful.

Gloria and her beautiful pet "Bella" were a pleasant experience for me; from the first contact, when we met, she showed a warmth and closeness that I had not experienced before, smiling, polite and eager to understand my strange way of speaking English. Her house is beautiful and very well maintained with an impressive view of the Chapala lagoon, her terrace and garden are very cozy and beautiful. Bella, her loving and veteran German shepherd, accompanied me daily on my walks in the hills... both of them walking slowly and calmly (I am also a 69-year-old veteran). I loved the quietness of the place, a situation that invited me to practice my current hobby "painting" and I had an incredible time. When Gloria returned, she was equally happy and simple, very correct and kind. I recommend Gloria with great affection, I would love to take care of her house again and of course Bella.Jose Luis housesitter December 04, 2024
