Sandy has a beautiful home which is close enough to the city to explore Seattle in the weekends but also quiet enough to calm down after work. Even though I never had a dog before, I had a ton of fun interacting with her two dogs, who were super friendly and well-behaved. Sandy was a great host herself too, we always had something to interesting to talk about and she was willing to help me when I needed it. Having never been in Seattle before, I couldn't have gotten a better welcome than I did from Sandy!
