What's included
What a home-style stay includes
Your feeding plan
The food, amounts, and times you send with the stay.
Familiar belongings
A bed, toy, or shirt from home can travel with your pet.
Updates while you're away
Agree on photos or a short note before drop-off.
Meet & Greet when it helps
A first visit to the home before an overnight stay.
Medication notes from you
If needed, owner-provided instructions are collected after the request is reviewed. Caregivers are not veterinarians.
How it works
A stay is matched, then confirmed
We review dates, your pet's notes, and the household that might host. If the match is not a good fit, we will say so.
- 1
Send dates and notes
Tell us the nights you need, pet type, and how your dog or cat spends an ordinary day.
- 2
We review the match
We check dates and whether the stay is a good fit, then confirm with you.
- 3
Confirm, then drop off
Once the stay is a fit, we confirm timing, belongings, and how you want updates.
Before we begin
What we collect before a stay
The first request can stay short. We collect the rest after we review dates and suitability.
Feeding and routine
Meals, sleep, litter or potty, and the shape of a normal day.
Behavior and compatibility
Comfort with a new house, people, and other animals.
Medications and extras
If needed, owner-provided instructions after review. Caregivers are not veterinarians.
Emergency and veterinarian
A reachable contact and clinic details, collected after the stay is a fit.
Home-style, not a kennel
A guest in a house, with a plan from home.
The stay follows the feeding, rest, and comfort notes you send. Some pets need a Meet & Greet before the first night. Pets who are happier in their own rooms may do better with in-home sitting.
