Jonathan and Edith are a wonderful couple, very down to earth. They are great to house sit for and really appreciated my help, even taking me out to lunch on the first day. The house is good for someone looking to get some work done in a different place. The neighborhood is quiet and away from all the hustle and bustle of downtown Ajijic and Chapala. For that reason, having a car is optimal, at least until the area's taxis are running at 100% again (no Uber and the pandemic shifted a lot of ... Continue Reading

Jonathan and Edith are a wonderful couple, very down to earth. They are great to house sit for and really appreciated my help, even taking me out to lunch on the first day. The house is good for someone looking to get some work done in a different place. The neighborhood is quiet and away from all the hustle and bustle of downtown Ajijic and Chapala. For that reason, having a car is optimal, at least until the area's taxis are running at 100% again (no Uber and the pandemic shifted a lot of taxi drivers into other jobs). The pups are friendly, as are the cats, although Spot needed a couple of days to realize that his feeding schedule wasn't going to change.

We just completed an 18-day house sit with Sara and her incredible, well-trained, loveable dogs in Bucerias, Mexico. Having completed dozens of house sits with pets, we have never had such well-mannered pets such as Flower and Flash. I must admit they both stole our hearts and it was difficult to say goodbye. We must certainly give tribute to their master Sara, who is well organized and gave us explicit instructions on the details we needed to have a successful house/pet sit. Her home is l...

We must certainly give tribute to their master Sara, who is well organized and gave us explicit instructions on the details we needed to have a successful house/pet sit. Her home is lovely and spacious with only a short walk to the local beach, or hop on a bus for only 28 pesos ($1.20usd) and enjoy the many attractions of Puerto Vallarta. We would certainly count it a privilege to housesit again in the future, however, if our schedule does not permit, then you will enjoy your time in Bucerias should you be selected as a house/pet sitter for Sara.

Georgia was a joy to have in our house while we were traveling. I never felt more relaxed knowing she was caring for our cats because she would send us photos of them every day and they were clearly happy to have her in the house with them. Georgia is fun, adventurous, and independent which are qualities I value in someone traveling far from home and assuming the responsibilities of another. She never panicked at a brief power outage during a rainstorm or contacted us with simple things that ... Continue Reading

Georgia is fun, adventurous, and independent which are qualities I value in someone traveling far from home and assuming the responsibilities of another. She never panicked at a brief power outage during a rainstorm or contacted us with simple things that one could figure out and do for themselves. I would highly recommend her as a house sitter and would definitely have her back in my home again.

I had the genuine pleasure of cat sitting for Richard at his lovely home in PV. The cats are sweet and we became fast friends 🙂 The house is lovely, sitting on a hill in Centro in PV, a short walk to the Malecon. I enjoyed watching the sunset from the terrace every evening. I had a great rapport with Richard who provided me with thorough details of the home and cat routines. I would not hesitate to housesit/cat sit for Richard again. He’s a lovely gent!

Mark & Natalie looked after my two smaller dogs for about 10 weeks earlier this year (2022) They were excellent with the dogs and my home, and I would invite them backing in a flash. However they are traveling Europe for the next little while, but I believe they may be coming back to the Chapala/Ajijic Lakeside area in a few months. I hope that is the case. I would enjoy having them sit for me again, for sure.

Barbara was an attentive and caring pet sitter to our 2 cats by sending messages and photos of them on a consistent basis. Barbara conscientiously attended to watching over the house, cats and plants by keeping everything neat, clean and in order. We highly recommend Barbara as your next pet and house sitter. Rita&Bryan

Jordyn is your person if you have dogs, cats, and plants. She recently did a house sit for me, and I am grateful I chose her for it. She is calm and capable, and when I returned home to very relaxed animals, I knew she had made a bond (even for a short stay). Nothing is more important to us pet owners than to have a person with them who takes charge but who also genuinely enjoys them. Also, every one of my plants was singing when I returned- happy, perky and well tended to. What I also l... Continue Reading

She messaged me in order to be clear. I highly recommend this beautiful person to you.

Having used HousesitMexico since 2019, I highly recommend this site. I have found reliable and trustworthy people to house sit and lovenly care for my pup. Not only have I readily found sitters, but I have also found new friends. The advantage of this site is finding people interested in knowing more about Mexico. The tools provided are great to get you started and guide you through the process when you first start. This site is very user-friendly. I have been very pleased with the results fr...

I highly recommend this housesit. The homeowners were hospitable and considerate. It's a lovely clean house with a great view from the mirador. And the pets, Alaska, Cessie and Horton are affectionate and adorable. I really enjoyed my stay.

Juanita’s home is lovely to spend time in with her rescues Chester, Maggie, and Jasmine. The two doggies are well behaved and super sweet. They like to watch TV with you in the evening and may even compete for your attention. Jasmine the cat will meow for food and cuddles but let you know when she’s received enough petting. Juanita’s green thumb provides two beautiful gardens to enjoy as well. You’ll love taking care of her animals and plants!

We so enjoyed our house sit for Bernadette and Alan in San Juan Cosala on Lake Chapala, Jalisco, Mexico. They built a house that Alan, who is an architect, designed. The house is a truncated pyramid that you would expect to see on the cover of House Beautiful. This home is located in a private gated community with a clubhouse, library, dog park, and pool with aerobic classes as well as community activities. Our homeowners arranged for us to get private passes to all the facilities. ... Continue Reading

This home is located in a private gated community with a clubhouse, library, dog park, and pool with aerobic classes as well as community activities. Our homeowners arranged for us to get private passes to all the facilities. The the icing on the cake was the dogs, Dorita and Manchas. Dorita would greet us with a beautiful full tooth smile. You couldn’t help but smile back. They are loving full-size lap dogs. They thoroughly enjoy their walks down by the lake or up in the community’s private dog park. We will miss their company on our walks. Thank you for choosing us to stay in you home with your precious dogs.

Shawn and Laura are an awesome couple! They arrived the day before we left on holidays so we could go through everything with them. Boop (our dog) sensed they were great friends right away and they were really happy to see her as well. We felt a lot less stressed about leaving Boop after spending some time with Shawn and Laura. They are wonderful, friendly people! Our house was clean and well looked after while we were gone. We received updates and pictures of Boop regularly. When we got ho... Continue Reading
