Dena and Bob are warm and wonderful people and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to meet them. Both are in interesting careers with life paths that brought them to San Miguel. I felt their kindness as we chatted. They are also relaxed and easy to talk to so we had some fun days overlapped. I love their pets, especially their two dogs Bader and Ellie. We all became good buddies and I loved snuggling on the couch or bed with them. They followed me everywhere, even the bathroom. They... Continue Reading

We all became good buddies and I loved snuggling on the couch or bed with them. They followed me everywhere, even the bathroom. They slept with me and were good (loud) protectors of the house. I felt very safe in this home and in the company of some of the most fun and cuddly dogs I have ever met (except if you leave them too long they will miss you)! They are pretty low maintenance as is the cat, Soto, and the birds. The house was in great shape and the views were splendid. I had an easy time doing my online work 8 hours a day on the WiFi. I hope to visit San Miguel, Dena, Bob, and their pets again soon!

Dyan sat with my 4 dogs and a foster I was caring for. She was fabulous with them, she is very caring and has a great understanding of dogs. She looked after everything here and I would have her back any time!

Yumi took great care of our house, our two dogs, cat and birds for 10 days. She also took care of all of our indoor and out door plants. "Proof of Life " photos were sent on a regular basis, most showing how happy the dogs were to snuggle with her! Yumi kept us informed about her plans before she arrived and agreed to stay an extra day in the event we were delayed in our return. Yumi works remotely , and as such, she was at the house most of the day. My dogs were sad to see her go! I ... Continue Reading

She will be one of my top choices when we travel again!

Susan and Mike have a lovely home in a private community in San Miguel. They made the guest room very comfortable and welcoming for me especially when I wasn't feeling well. They answered any questions that I had and stayed in touch while they traveled. Taking care of Mimi was a pleasure. She's very sweet after she warms up to you because she might be a little cautious at first. But then she really loves belly rubs (especially first thing in the morning!) and playing together with her toys. S... Continue Reading

She's very sweet after she warms up to you because she might be a little cautious at first. But then she really loves belly rubs (especially first thing in the morning!) and playing together with her toys. She's low-maintenance since she doesn't need to go out for walks and instead goes out to the backyard and garden. It was nice to sit out there too because it's quiet and nicely decorated. I'd be happy to take care of Mimi again. Thanks Susan and Mike!

We returned home from a three week vacation yesterday. We had many applicants for house/pet sitters and chose Joe and Karen to care for our dog. Ginny is a rescue who had a very rough first year so it was very important that she not have a bad experience. It was clear that Ginny was comfortable with Joe and Karen and had bonded with them. Joe and Karen were very respectful of our home and when we returned, it was exactly as we had left it. We are comfortable enough that we have already en... Continue Reading

It is a huge relief to know our baby will be cared for and loved while we are away.

I had the pleasure of house sitting for Dana, Dan and their two dogs in July 2023 in their beautiful house in San Miguel de Allende. I was there for 3 weeks. The house is absolutely beautiful inside and out with great terrace views of the town including the main church. There is also a beautiful terrace area beside their pool. The house it at the top of a hill but is an easy walk down to town. It is also behind high walls, so I felt totally safe. July was unusually hot so I stayed in a room t... Continue Reading

The house it at the top of a hill but is an easy walk down to town. It is also behind high walls, so I felt totally safe. July was unusually hot so I stayed in a room that had air conditioning. The room (not the main poolside casita) had a nice king bed, sofa, TV, wet bar and en suite bath. It was very nice and comfortable. Responsibilities included maintaining a presence in the home, communicating with the house keeper and gardener, communicating with Dana on any issues, and the care and feeding of the two dogs who were super sweet and easy. This was a dream house sit and I wouldn’t hesitate to sit for this family again.

Joe and Tessa have become like family to us. Before the start of their sit, we were finishing packing our personal belongings to move. They came a few days early so we could show them around the property and SMA since they had not been here before. They were not frazzled at all by the chaos of preparing to leave (I was a bit stressed) and helped in any way they could! I would find before I even finished breakfast Joe completed the breakfast dishes for me. They have communicated with us on... Continue Reading

They were not frazzled at all by the chaos of preparing to leave (I was a bit stressed) and helped in any way they could! I would find before I even finished breakfast Joe completed the breakfast dishes for me. They have communicated with us on everything as far as house issues or showings. Our home has been kept in better condition than we left it. We had the opportunity to have a dinner out in SMA the night before we left and we enjoyed their company immensely. If Joe and Tessa offer to sit for you, consider yourself blessed, your home will be well cared for.

Outside out Casita there was a large covered porch and fridge. We sit looking out over the pool. The walk to SMA takes 20 mins from the house, quite steep. Taxis can bring you back for $80 pesos. It is a quiet, private, peaceful area & very safe. We have had a really great time here, totally hassel free. Would housesit for this lovely family again happily.

We loved having Karen and Steve come house and dog sit for us! They were friendly, communicative, big dog lovers, responsible and really great people. They sat for our Mario and Betsy for 2 weeks. We knew from the first moment we met them that we were comfortable with them house and dog sitting for us. They were clearly dog lovers and it showed in how they greeted our dogs.

We have big dogs and they were not intimidated. Our male dog likes a little rough housing and Steve immediately got into that which was great. Karen and Steve asked us a lot of questions about our house and took care of everything exactly how we wanted them to. The house was clean and orderly when we returned. They sent us photos of our fur babies and let us know how many cats they got to see each time. We would love to have them back to house and dog sit for us anytime it works for both of us. We are happy to give them a great reference if you would like. Thanks Karen and Steve!!

Their home is beautiful, very comfortable and quiet with amazing views! Building a playful and affectionate relationship with Mario and Betsy was easy! They readily joined us while on the couch, on the terrace or their twice daily walks. They are eager to cuddle in bed, but if not wanted, they are willing to sleep on their mats. Betsy is sneaky & likes to "borrow" towels, socks, or whatever will entice you to chase her! She enjoys her toys and they play well together! They are emotionally intelligent and great to hang out with. We highly recommend this special family to someone fortunate enough to have the opportunity to care for their home and companionate Goldendoodles! Karen & Steve
