16. Sophia C.


“I recently had to go out of town on a last minute business trip and was so happy to find Sophia through DogVacay. Sophia was able to accommodate a short notice meet-and-greet, and gladly hosted my dog starting the next day. I got plenty of pictures and updates during my trip to know that my dog was in great hands, doing well, and enjoying her time with some new friends. Sophia even managed to find something my fussy-eating pup enjoys. I will definitely be coming back to Sophia in the future!”
