Family from Durham NC., USA

Welcome & Getting Started
1

Hello everyone,
I’m just thrilled to have joined this community. I learned about it many years ago, but finally signed up this fall. We’ve done 2 sits so far and each was wonderful! We truly enjoy the companionship of animals which make our time away more memorable. Roxy earned a warm spot in our hearts and then Nacho and Evie (along with Mango the cat that could not be forgotten) joyfully jumped in.

Taking the dogs for walks together has become a thing and something we wouldn’t do at a hotel. This has been such a gift to me and my family. I’m soo glad I never forgot about this community. Our last day is cleaning day where we work together to make sure every room is as we found it if not better.

My mom always taught me to leave a place better. I’m trying to teach my boys the same, at parks or homes. How can you make something better? This community is all about that. The pets are better, loved and cared for, the owners are better and at peace and the TH is also better having had a new experience.

Well just wanted to say thank you all for being a slice of goodness!! :smile:

Have a great day!!!
Sarah
