Geoff and Marthe are exceptional housesitters! We couldn't have been happier with how they cared for our Husky mix, Hurricane, who warmed up to both very quickly. (In fact, Hurricane is still looking for them now that we have returned!) Not only were they meticulous about giving Hurri the eye drops and pills required for her care, taking her for many walks and spending time with her, but they also took great care of our home and garden and communicated on a regular basis.

We were able to have the peace of mind that our dog and home were in the best of hands during our time away. We want to thank Marthe and Geoff, and highly recommend them to anyone who would like to leave their home and pets in the best of hands.Barbara homeowner June 30, 2024
We had such a wonderful time at Barbara and Scott’s home/casita. It was located in a very quite neighbourhood a short drive from amenities and a very short walk to the amazing beach. The casita was very bright and cheery with a comfortable bed and spectacular views of the beach and estuary. Hurricane was a pleasure to care for. She was so easy to walk in the neighborhood and on the beach. She needed eye drops and a pill every day and accepted the medication with little fuss. While we sl... Continue Reading

She was so easy to walk in the neighborhood and on the beach. She needed eye drops and a pill every day and accepted the medication with little fuss. While we slept in the casita Hurricane slept outside in the courtyard. She greeted us at the door every morning waiting patiently for her breakfast and walk. Then we could go out and explore the area. Barbara and Scott prepared an extensive list of things to see, local restaurants and plenty to do. During our outings Hurricane was content to nap in the courtyard. We definitely enjoyed our stay and caring for Hurricane. We would highly recommend this stay.Marthe & Geoff housesitter June 30, 2024
Shana is great! Her years of pet sitting experience show in her patience, humor and care. I never knew I needed to get update videos until she started sending them. There is nothing more important than knowing your pets are well cared for and with her there, I knew they were. And, most amazingly, she was able to not only get close to put actually pet my very shy older cat who normally won't let anyone near. A huge win! And huge thanks to Shanna for coming to stay. Come back any time!

From the spectacular front garden through the front entry, you may think you are in some edition of Architectural Digest. You may think you must be house sitting for some famous people and taking care of their three cats. There's JOSIE, who knows where she is and it is not Cat heaven but close to it; JASPER, who could care less where he is but sure knows it is great and loves his new house, and JACK, who is somewhat of a new household member and we should all be so lucky. These three feline... Continue Reading
From the spectacular front garden through the front entry, you may think you are in some edition of Architectural Digest. You may think you must be house sitting for some famous people and taking care of their three cats. There's JOSIE, who knows where she is and it is not Cat heaven but close to it; JASPER, who could care less where he is but sure knows it is great and loves his new house, and JACK, who is somewhat of a new household member and we should all be so lucky. These three felines all have their distinct individual personalities as well their own boundaries with each other and YOU. All of them are loving, can be very talkative, clean, and lounging kitties. Of course you must give each one the same amount of attention, they know who was just being petted. Your Hosts Dan and Scott are amazing and kind and very organized. Not to miss anything I think we read our manual every other day to be spot on. We were asked to arrive an afternoon before our stay to go over everything of their daily routine and specific instructions on everything about the house and the cats. It was like a five star boutique casita. Both Dan and Scott were very reachable and great communicators and loved getting an occasional photo of their KIDS back home. We would be happy to BABYKIT, Jasper, Josie, and Jack and House/Sit for Scott and Dan any time in the future. Once you have been to the store for food for your stay, there is no reason to leave this magnificent home and three loving kitties. Saludos, Herb and FernandoHERB & FERNANDO housesitter June 27, 2024
I LOVED my time with Fig & Milo! Two very different but wonderful little guys! Fig is the boisterous young fellow who likes to be outside and play with your shoes. He’s very sweet, cuddly, and communicative. His zoomies are impressive parkour! Milo is the dulcet, gorgeous, and very chill older brother who spends most of the day resting. I was super honored that he warmed up to me and eventually allowed me to offer daily belly rubs, but other than that, he prefers his own company. Danya is ver... Continue Reading

Danya is very kind, funny, and sweet and I really enjoyed meeting her. Her home is beautifully decorated and very cozy. Even in the hot temps of June, I was comfortable with fans and the AC split unit. She has a beautiful courtyard garden that I enjoyed watering. The home is also centrally located and you can walk pretty much anywhere you’d like to go within 5-15 min. If I’m not available for her next sit (LOL), I highly recommend this opportunity!Shanna housesitter June 26, 2024
Rick took good care of our house. It was a long term duty (7 weeks) . He took good care of our 5 cats and 3 dogs. He also trained our dogs, now we can walk them without pulling. He managed to navigate and solved some issues that arised such as a collapsed by the wind wooden gate, refilling gas and water to our off-grid house.Among other repairs. We found the house in a good and proper order and shape. And very clean.

Jeff and Claudia are awesome house sitters! They made fast friends with both our dog and cat (who doesn't usually have anything to do witih new people). They kept us updated with pictures and kept our home nice and tidy. It gave us peace of mind knowing that our fur babies were in such good hands. Would recommend them whole-heartedly and would definitely call on them again for future house sits.

We were in the magnificent Chapala region for the first time, spending nearly two months at Nancy and Bejan’s wonderful property, with their two beautiful cats, Dragon Boy and Spitfire. The two cats are absolute opposites of each other: if Dragon Boy is very sociable, always on the lookout for the next opportunity to play, affection-wanting, Spitfire, an outdoor cat, is timid, fearful, and does not like to be seen at first, until she is used to new people, which takes time – but then, her he...

We were in the magnificent Chapala region for the first time, spending nearly two months at Nancy and Bejan’s wonderful property, with their two beautiful cats, Dragon Boy and Spitfire. The two cats are absolute opposites of each other: if Dragon Boy is very sociable, always on the lookout for the next opportunity to play, affection-wanting, Spitfire, an outdoor cat, is timid, fearful, and does not like to be seen at first, until she is used to new people, which takes time – but then, her heart is wide-open for one’s love and care. Then, she loves to be listened to and be cuddled – but, nonetheless, keep her distance elegantly. Both are gorgeous cats and know well how to make one addicted to them. We were very lucky with our hosts: Nancy and Bejan were so amazingly generous – they left their SUV for our free use; they managed helping us to change to a fiber optics internet provider because of our remote work; and picked us up at the Guadalajara airport. They were always well-reachable telephonically or on WhatsApp whenever we had any questions. Nancy and Bejan are easy-going, very attentive and fine people. We enjoyed spending time in this comfortable house with two bedrooms and bathrooms, two artistically designed gardens and easy-to-care-for cats very much! We are so grateful for this experience!Frank & Ella housesitter June 24, 2024
Recently, Mike and Dalia cat sat our Olly; he is a definite people person. He would even sit on Mike’s lap. Both humans and Olly seemed very happy together. Mike and Dalia seemed to like our home; they left it in the same state that found it. Thank you Mike and Dalia. Lynn and I highly recommend them.

Chalky and Lynn were amazing, very nice and interesting couple. We really enjoyed staying at their home with Olly. Olly was a very fun and friendly kitty, I enjoyed playing with him. The condo is very nice and is in a great location. We look forward to seeing them, and Olly again in the future.

Frank, Alla, and Rafael housesat in Chapala for us from May through most of June 2024. They managed the changeover of my internet, house repairs, car issues, cat care, plant care, ant invasions, fixed the front yard fountain, and gave me peace of mind. Rafael's excellent Spanish and research skills helped me determine a new internet system, and Frank managed the changeover, including assessing a new house-wide phone system. His IT background was invaluable. Frank's excellent communication s... Continue Reading

His IT background was invaluable. Frank's excellent communication skills always kept me abreast of the dynamic changing system that is modern life. They sent regular kitty photos, paid my internet bill, and kept the plants and our picky front yard fountain happy too. Our house was returned in spotless condition with dinner ready when we got home from the airport. They operate at a very high level of competence, and they have high standards which is becoming rare these days.Nancy homeowner June 20, 2024
Kathryn, who goes by Eileen, was the most Gracious Hostess with a beautiful immaculate home in the heart of San Miguel de Allende and one of the finest of neighborhoods within walking distance to most everything you would need or want from a walk in Parque Juarez, the Jardin, many restaurants, farmacias, weekly mercado`s, bakeries, and hotels that offer day passes for a swim.

Eileen has no pets and many plants to keep you busy watering which are located in various little patios and on her beautiful rooftop terrace where you will suddenly be in plant heaven. No it is not a ´plant nursery´ but an amazing garden retreat that she has created to relax and enjoy both day and night under the moon and stars. Fully equipped kitchen and outdoor grill for your cooking pleasure and a real designated work space as she has an office with high speed Internet/WIFI. Eileen has information written down in detail for you from restaurants to friends, and she will soon become your friend. We look forward to House/Plant sitting for Eileen in the near future.HERB & FERNANDO housesitter June 20, 2024
