Organised and reliable family

About this sitter

We're a loving and responsible family of four, husband and spouse with two adorable children of 8 and 4; Canadian citizens from Quebec.

We moved to Mexico looking for a different experience in harmony with our own values of freedom and family life, with less stress on common pursuits of economic resolutions and solutions. We adopted a slower pace and are definitely less driven by the frenetical pace of modernity.

We are outdoorsy sort of people, but we do also like to just hang out at home. As homeowners, we know how to take care of a house and how important it is to find someone that is trustworthy to do so. We value living a minimalist healthy, slow, and experience filled life. We are fully trilingual (French-Spanigh-English).
I enjoy early mornings schedule and staying active. I’m an extremely good cleaner, very organised, and the queen of lists and couponing. As a former surgical-nurse, Im a picky-meticulous cleaner.
My husband is very handy and capable and there’s nothing he won’t turn his hand to. He is very practical and likes doing all the minor repair jobs in the house so he is prepared to deal with any household issues quickly and responsibly.
We are proud parents of our lovable and smiley daughter and son.
My daughter the oldest loves everything like arts and craft, reading and knitting. She is so loving, caring and compassionate towards all animals. My yougest son loves playing, being silly and talking to people. He also collects all kinds of bugs and love to memorize interesting facts about them.

We are both non-smokers, very honest and tidy. Our children have travelled a lot and are very well behaved. We have lived in a trailer tent on the road so we do not need much space. We are just happy to be able to help in return for free accomodation.
All 4 members of the family are eco conscious.

Why they want to house sit

We believe that traveling and discovering new places it is the best way to open our mind and disconnect from the routine. We are happy to take responsability of caring for your home and solving any problem that would arise. Your pet and garden will be pampered and loved while you are away. As we are keen walkers, your dogs will be out and about every day!
We are running a very special dog pension here in our ranch in mexico (no leash, no cage) and are familiar with giving animal medication, cleaning fish tank and handling older or special need animal.
As we have a lot of experience in pet sitting, the children are amazing at understanding pets needs and boundaries. They have learned that all animals have a different comfort level with kids and people in general, so they always look up to us to model the right behaviour of allowing cats and dogs to smell us first and ‘’show us’’ whether they would like to be petted. That experience of ‘’understanding animal langages’’ makes us all very comfortable around animals as a family. I feel really honored about every invitation and will answer promptly
We recognize the importance of prompt communications, professionalism with personal touch and reliability.
