Janet and Allison are great hosts and have a lovely home. They provided detailed written instructions and I had everything I needed for the sit. Their fur babies, Lexi, Oliver and Emme were easy to care for. Lexi was a constant, sweet companion. Emme and Oliver took a while to warm up to me, like cats do, and eventually stopped running away every time I entered a room lol. It was a great sit overall and I highly recommend if you get the opportunity.

Andreè was the first one to respond to our ad and after reading her reviews and speaking to folks that she had worked with in the past, we decided to go with her for a 3-month gig. We cannot say enough nice things about her. She was the perfect house sitter to have, making sure our home was kept clean and organized and all the pets were happy and well cared for. At one point, while we were away, we needed her to go into our safe to get some important documents to send them to us in the US an... Continue Reading

At one point, while we were away, we needed her to go into our safe to get some important documents to send them to us in the US and Andreè took care of this matter for us in a very timely manner and has won our utmost trust. We have two dogs and two cats and Andreè and our pets got along very well. The mutual experience exceeded all expectations, so much so, that Andreè will be back in May for another 3 months. That should say it all! I highly recommend this lovely lady for anyone considering using her to care for their home and pets.

Millie house sat and cared for our beloved cat Katie during Jan/Feb 2023. This was our first experience with a non family member caretaker while we traveled. As such, I was very selective and somewhat cautious. Our first sit opportunity didn’t work out for Millie (no fault of Millie). Upon reaching out, she was delighted to hear from me and cheerfully accepted the next Jan/Feb opportunity. She is great at communication before and after she arrived.

She kept our home perfect and cared for Katie as if she were her own. I highly recommend Millie. You will not be disappointed. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any other questions about our experience with Housesit Mexico.

We had a great time with Marc and Paulette's two dogs, Brindle and Fiona. They took us on long walks every morning, then we got to enjoy relaxing in their owner's beautiful home. The rooftop garden is a wonderful place for refreshments in the afternoon and the guestroom bed was one I wanted to take home with me! Marc and Paulette are a warm and welcoming couple who we are happy to now call our friends.

There isn't enough room here to write all the nice things I have to say about Tom, Donna, and their lovely chihuahua Baby who is so sweet and affectionate. First of all, the communication was excellent; we were given details about the house (feeding schedules, plant watering, etc.) before our arrival so we had an idea of what was required. Once we arrived, they took us out for dinner, showed us the area, and we returned home to talk about the specifics of the house. Their house is amazingly b... Continue Reading

First of all, the communication was excellent; we were given details about the house (feeding schedules, plant watering, etc.) before our arrival so we had an idea of what was required. Once we arrived, they took us out for dinner, showed us the area, and we returned home to talk about the specifics of the house. Their house is amazingly beautiful and very well set-up, not to mention very secure and safe. Donna had prepared and frozen a bunch of the food for the dogs so everything was covered for the time we were there. We kept in good contact while they were on vacation, but everything went smooth as silk. On their return, we had supper ready for them and we enjoyed an evening with our new friends who are very kind, funny, and clearly so in love. I would recommend house-sitting for them to anyone (although you must be prepared for a journey up a hill, a car is a plus) as their home is tranquil and beautiful, and it was such a pleasure to care for Baby and the street dogs that are faithfully there to eat twice a day. I hope we get to return one day to beautiful Ixtlahuacan de los Membrillos. Thanks Tom and Donna!

Robin and Greg are the best people you’d ever want to housesit for. They are kind and considerate and made sure we had all the information we could possibly need for a successful sit. Communication was prompt and clear right from first contact. They have a beautiful, comfortable home. I really fell in love with sweet cat Katie. She was a pleasure to spend time with.

Nancy and Lorne were the perfect House Sitters! They were clear communicators from the first interaction and prompt in all responses. Our dogs loved them, our plants never looked better and they left a large box of kindling for the fireplace! They (above and beyond!) cleaned the house when the housekeeper unexpectedly did not arrive on the last day. They had arranged for taxi transportation to the bus station when they departed—we had expected to take them. They seemed to think of everythi... Continue Reading

They are world travelers and have interesting memories and perspectives to share. We are grateful for their care of our home and pets, and we would certainly have them HouseSit for us again! It would please us greatly! Reed and Paula, Patzcuaro, Michoacan

Paula + Reed were very welcoming, warm, and helpful. They gave us a tour of the city centre, which has a beautiful, large newer Plaza and an older, more traditional Plaza a block away. The 2 dogs, Nina + Elly were great companions and were not overly-demanding or "spoiled". They did not require walking, as they could run around in the large walled yard. Elly + Nina added so much to the enjoyment of our stay in this beautifully designed and appointed home. Reed + Paula are environmentally ... Continue Reading

Elly + Nina added so much to the enjoyment of our stay in this beautifully designed and appointed home. Reed + Paula are environmentally conscious and do all they can in that regard. I particularly appreciated the beautiful natural fibre textiles everywhere in the home, and the almost complete absence of plastic! Also loved the gorgeous carved wooden furniture and all the numerous beautiful touches throughout. The light and sun filled upper storey was amazing. There was a massive open-air rooftop patio as well, with great views and lovely potted plants. A small courtyard off the kitchen was filled with light, warmth, and potted herbs. Another courtyard, off the library, contained the washing machine, drying lines, and more plants. Everything was sparkling clean, the gas stove was easy to use, the shower was hot, and the bed was very comfortable. The smart TV had Netflix, etc. and the wifi was good. There is so much to see and do in the lively colonial city of Pátzcuaro. Great restaurants, great street food, excellent food stores, vibrant local culture, and regular meetups with local expats for socializing and information-sharing. The Monarch Sanctuary is only a day trip away. A feature of the private, hilltop location of the home is the steep cobbled road down to the main road. We opted to use the inexpensive, readily-available taxis to come and go, which suited us just fine!

We had a great time house-sitting for David and caring for his two dogs, elder Wilson and young, gentle pup Dugui. He has an incredible historic home in a very central area of Puebla, making it very easy to walk to all the attractions. We fed and administered medicine twice a day, in the morning and evening, which made it easy for us to go out in between and enjoy some travel apart from our responsibilities. Caring for the house was minimal, we only needed to water the potted plants every two... Continue Reading

We fed and administered medicine twice a day, in the morning and evening, which made it easy for us to go out in between and enjoy some travel apart from our responsibilities. Caring for the house was minimal, we only needed to water the potted plants every two days or so which doesn't take long. Communication was great with David during our stay, even though we didn't get to meet him until after he returned and relieved us of our duties (his partner was there to greet us and show us the house and animal routine). It's a great opportunity to experience the wonderful city of Puebla and we hope we get to return someday to do it again.

I was fortunate to be invited to sit for Terry. His 4 dogs were so much fun , and of course each has their own personality.. Terry had written instructions that helped make for an easy transition. He has a beautiful and comfortable home in a very close knit community. Definitely made some friends from my stay there.
