Lisa and Steven were awesome hosts for a 2-week long housesit in Playa del Carmen. They provided detailed written directions for caring for their 2 wonderful pups Loki and Phoenix, and their beautiful but stand-offish cat Koko. They left money to take them to puppy daycare several times during the visit and had all the food packaged for the entire stay. Paul walked the dogs several times each day, and I pampered the kitty and brushed her when she wasn't hiding in the closet. The brand n... Continue Reading

Lisa and Steven were awesome hosts for a 2-week long housesit in Playa del Carmen. They provided detailed written directions for caring for their 2 wonderful pups Loki and Phoenix, and their beautiful but stand-offish cat Koko. They left money to take them to puppy daycare several times during the visit and had all the food packaged for the entire stay. Paul walked the dogs several times each day, and I pampered the kitty and brushed her when she wasn't hiding in the closet. The brand new 4-bedroom home is very comfortable, and easy to care for with little maintenance. I spent hours every day in the mesmerizing community pool right across the street from the house, while Paul enjoyed the dipping pool on the screened patio. They had blistering fast internet, hundreds of TV channels, and a totally equipped office where I worked online using 4 big monitors. They even left their car for use to take the pups to and from puppy camp and for general use. Playa del Carmen is a tourist mecca, and we were able to visit that part of the Riviera Maya at low cost through this great housesit They are great hosts and any sitter would be lucky to have the opportunity to care for their furbabies while they travel.

Now, here is a couple that I wished lived next door so I could call upon the two at will. I have wished Gordon & Starr would house sit for me again and again. My house was in better conditions when I returned from my trip than before I left. Also they are delightful to visit with. I consider the two friends and I know you will also.

We are so excited, with HousesitMexico. We are currently house/pet sitting San Miguel de Allende for 5 weeks, April 27 to June 1, house/pet sitting in Ajijic June 2-23, and then house/pet sitting again in Playa del Carmen June 23-July 20th. We are truly enjoying getting our "pet" fix, meeting new people and visiting new areas for extended periods, without the significant expense of accommodation.

This is truly a great way to facilitate a "win / win", for both sitters and hosts.

What a pleasure it was to house sit for Penny! We were invited to visit the day before our assignment began and were thoroughly briefed on house sitter expectations. Additionally Penny left us written instructions for the care of the really cool house and gardens. As a host she deserves a 5 star rating for her communication skills and hospitality. Yes, we would gladly house sit for her again.

I absolutely loved sitting for Jessica and her best bud Skylar. Jessica is a wonderful host and that alone I would give 5 STARS. She allowed me to stay before her trip departure and afterward she returned home as well. That was very helpful for my travel plans. Even though she isn't a coffee drinker she had fresh ground coffee waiting for me and a coffee maker. Much appreciated!! She has a wonderful home with plenty of space and a gorgeous sunny, plant-filled terrace. Her place was also spark... Continue Reading

Even though she isn't a coffee drinker she had fresh ground coffee waiting for me and a coffee maker. Much appreciated!! She has a wonderful home with plenty of space and a gorgeous sunny, plant-filled terrace. Her place was also sparkling clean! Oh, and for those of you who work from home, she has fast and stable internet! And my bud Skylar, I can't say enough sweet words about him. He is very easy-going, very cuddly, and just fun to be around. I got tons of snuggles and love from him. I would sit again for Skylar in a heartbeat. One of my best sits yet! Thanks for the hospitality, Jessica!

Gail and Doug were excellent house-sitters. We don't have a pet, so I can't comment on that but they looked after our house and gardens (improvising with a bucket when a hose broke), communicated well and were very keen to make sure they knew exactly what we wanted so we could have a worry-free trip. They came a day early so they could meet us and get to know the house and what was needed. We came back to a spotless house! I would be extremely happy for Gail and Doug to house-sit for us o...

I can not be more happy with meeting Grace and leaving her to care for my place and my little dog Skyler. I felt he was in very capable hands. She was available to do video calls when I wanted to visit with him. And she even took him for a trip to the beach. And sent me plenty of photos while I was gone. I hope to have the opportunity to have her come again.

We were very happy to be chosen for Susan & Endre's house-sit at their home in Guanajuato. Their flock of five friendly chickens was such a joy! Their home is situated overlooking a big, beautiful terraced garden, which seems to be home to its own little ecosystem, as well as a breathtaking view of the city. As a photographer, I couldn't help but get up at sunrise on numerous occasions just to take pictures of the landscape. Before they left, they guided us through our various responsibilitie...

As a photographer, I couldn't help but get up at sunrise on numerous occasions just to take pictures of the landscape. Before they left, they guided us through our various responsibilities and expectations, and left detailed notes, which made the process very easy. For the most part, their house-sit was like a vacation. Their home also has some beautiful comfortable rental units, so if you're traveling to Guanajuato, I highly recommend staying with Susan & Endre!

It is a pleasure to give Amanda Jane and Rene a 5 star rating. Meeting them for the first time, I felt very comfortable putting my new 7 month old puppy and three elderly cats, my home and plants in their care. They are energetic, fun loving and truly responsible individuals. They adapted well to the new environment, my pets and respected my home and conditions of the Housesit. Their communication during my six week absence was clear, concise and my pet photos were greatly appreciated. I wo... Continue Reading

What a joy to return home after a month's absence to a happy, healthy dog and a well cared for home...such was my reaction to Connie's care for Ransom and my casita. From our first contact I knew I was dealing with an empathetic, competent and adaptable carer, one who clarified any questions or concerns, was in frequent contact through reports and photos of my dog and who displayed a genuine interest in her surroundings. I consider myself most fortunate to have had Connie's help to care for ... Continue Reading

Janice and Keith's home is a unique and interesting construction of hay bales, adobe, brick and stone. It is located in a quiet country setting away from tourist hassle and traffic. Agua Escondido is a safe and secure gated community offering scenic walks on winding roads. Heidi, Carson and Africa are ready and engaging when it is time for their walks. They really take us for a walk on their practiced rounds, but are amenable to different routes if we choose. They are great company and kee... Continue Reading

Agua Escondido is a safe and secure gated community offering scenic walks on winding roads. Heidi, Carson and Africa are ready and engaging when it is time for their walks. They really take us for a walk on their practiced rounds, but are amenable to different routes if we choose. They are great company and keep us entertained. The dogs are used to a lot of love and know how to give it back. Jan and Keith are very laid back and made us feel that their home is ours. They are a genuinely kind and caring couple, devoted to giving back to their community. We enjoyed adding our individual touch to the garden and adopting their deck for morning coffee, our meals, and office work. We will be back again in July and very much look forward to it. The only thing we will miss is their company while they are traveling.
