Lorena house-sat for us for three weeks. It was her first housesit ever, and coincided with her recent retirement. She is from southern Texas and has relatives in Mexico, so coming to Ajijic was a treat for her. She took excellent care of our 7 y/o Lola and our home. Continue Reading

This was the first time I’d ever used a site like HouseSitMexico because we were a bit nervous to have strangers taking care of our house and pets.

Put your trepidation aside. Natalia is a competent house sitter leaving your house in order and your animals loved.
