As an owner, you want to make sure your four-legged friend is in good hands during your vacation.
In these Petbnb vacation experiences, we share heartwarming stories of dogs and cats who have
had a top-notch stay with our loving sitters - from lodging to home babysitting.
A warm welcome & lots of hugs
For many pets, staying with a sitter takes some getting used to. Our sitters provide a warm welcome and make it a party. Take Bean, a playful Goldendoodle. Her owner was nervous at first, but with daily photos and videos of a happy Bean, the worries quickly disappeared.
