$1,190$0

Your Cavalier shouldn't stay in a kennel. Not when a family down the street knows the breed.

A trust-first sitting-swap circle for Cavalier owners — and devoted Cavalier sitters — across California. Two weeks of boarding runs about $1,190. Here it's free, and your pup stays with people who know murmurs, meds, and the afternoon-nap protocol.

How a swap works

Swap nights, not trust.

Step one

Post your trip dates

Tell the circle when you're away. Nearby hosts appear as neighbor introductions: real dogs, real first names, a neighborhood. Never an address.

Step two

Meet & greet first

Coffee, a sniff around the garden, your dog's Cav Card, and an emergency plan. All before any stay is confirmed.

Step three

Your pup stays with Cavalier people

A photo log of naps and walks while you're away. The address is shared only once you've both said yes.

Step four

Host once, bank nights

Host a fellow Cavalier and you bank nights for your own next trip. It's a ledger of favors between neighbors. Money never changes hands. Don't have a Cav right now? You can still join to host.

Sixty seconds, start to finish

Watch how the circle works.

The breed-specific difference

Sitters who already know what a murmur means.

Every member is Cavalier family — owners, and sitters who've loved one. Health needs are shared in care language: handling rules, med schedules, the missed-dose protocol. Not buried in a booking note.
