The most beneficial thing about this to me is bringing us to places we may not have considered had we been planning a typical vacation. One of our most special experiences was a two month sit in Nizwa, Oman. Not only would I have never thought to visit there, even if I had, I’m sure it would not have been for two months. It stands out as one of my most treasured travel experiences. Other places like this for us were Cyprus, Fiji, Qatar

The creature cuddles are the only reason I do it. I can’t have pets of my own with my current lifestyle and I miss them. So I like being able to play fun aunt with some furry ones.

I cannot have my own pet yet and I am so happy to be able to help out others and live in a different place for a short while

Animals friends. The most important part.
The change of scenery is nice too, but it doesn’t have to be far away from home to be interesting.
I kind of like micro-exploring… getting to know the immediate area around the home I’m sitting at.

I enjoy caring and interacting with the pets, exploring new or much-loved familiar places, and, very important for me, helping the HO to get away so that they can visit their families, friends, or fulfill their travel dreams. I feel good that they return to a home and pets that have been loved and cared-for. As a volunteer, in a way this is my societal contribution.
