My wife, Chantelle, and I are from the US and are happily retired in beautiful Santa Marianita ​/​ Manta, Ecuador. Our dog, Poki, is a Border Collie mix and she loves everyone! We are looking for trustworthy and reliable house​/​pet sitting. Our gated community has a nice mix of very friendly Ecuadorians, along with American and Canadian expats (also very friendly).
