Snow trip

This property was exactly as described. It is immaculately clean, comfortable, and roomy with great space for all, including the dogs. It is well stocked with anything a traveler might need and everything in the house works perfectly. The location is ideal. Kayla was extremely easy to communicate with and welcoming and provided a wealth of detailed information. This is by far the best place we've ever stayed!

WOW this place was awesome

Kayla goes above and beyond in making her guests feel at home. Her attention to the details blew our minds. From the basket of goodies to mints, and glossers in the bathrooms to the coffee nook, made our stay so much better. Sitting by the fire eating s’mores, and lights on the fence around us was a great way to finish our day’s of activities. I would recommend Kayla’s dog house without hesitation.

Great House Considerate Hosts

I went away with a guys trip in Gettysburg. Even a house full of dudes were very impressed with the consideration of the owners. They left snacks, the house was stocked with toiletries, towels, soap. Communication was on point. It was a very nice stay.

Every little detail included!

I recently stayed at the Dog House with my family and couldn’t have been happier with my choice. The location was great, just a few miles from downtown Gettysburg. The property itself was beautifully decorated with a great dog theme and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay including a fully stocked kitchen, cozy bedding and thoughtful touches like extra toiletries. We particularly enjoyed the yard, and swing set for my son. The property owner was also very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Overall, I would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a well-appointed, cute and great location vacation rental.

Loveable Home

This country home has been updated and decorated beautifully. It was immaculately clean. There were so many things that made our stay great. The owner and doggie left us a welcome note. There are many things that make this place stand out with the extras you find from kitchen supplies to doggie bowls. The pictures were accurate. The home was very close to all of the sightseeing activities in Gettysburg. The owner is very friendly and gave me the link to one of the items I loved. We hated to leave and would recommend this place for anyone with families (kid friendly) and with or without dogs.

STOP looking - This is it!

If you're looking for a clean, kid-friendly, pet-friendly place to stay in Gettysburg, look no further! This house has it all! It's even better in person than the pictures. The beds & linens were top notch. Kayla has thought of everything! Her attention to detail may have spoiled us to future rentals. My grandchildren loved the goodies Kayla left for them & loved playing in the backyard. It was so nice for them to have their pups with them, too. Kayla responded quickly to all inquiries. Many thanks to Kayla & Trisha for letting us stay at their beautiful home and for being so gracious.

Absolutely agree with all the great reviews!

This was an amazing VRBO experience! Kayla was wonderful with communication, consistently replying to any questions almost immediately. The home was lovely, but even more importantly, it gave you the feeling of being extremely well-cared for. So much thought was put into what visitors to the home might need or want. Forget your toothpaste? No problem, an extra was there. Forget floss? There it was. Need to wash makeup off? Makeup remover wipes were available. Kayla even left us with a goodie box full of all sorts of treats, including fixings for making s'mores at the smokeless firepit in the back! The backyard was decorated with fairy lights, and there was fun dog-related decor everywhere that just made us smile! Thank you Kayla for such a lovely weekend, and we would very much look forward to staying at your beautiful home again in the future!

Continued to Surprise Us

This was our 3rd time at The Dog House and we are continually surprised by Kayla's hospitality. In an email conversation I mentioned my parents had mobility issues. Unexpectedly when we got to the house there were temporary bars around both tiolets and a shower chair! These were a godsend! As always the house was beautiful and clean. It met all our needs and expectations.

Truly a Home Away From Home

Kayla does an amazing job to make this "home away from home" feel like home! We would find ourselves asking, "I wonder if she has ______ " and the answer was always "YES"! Measuring cups. bug spray, scissors, tissues, complete sets of flatware, shower caps, enough outlets, etc. - She thought of everything! The decor and knick-knacks give the house such a comfortable, welcoming vibe. The house and the yard are very clean - even the interiors of the appliances are shiny clean! We felt so safe just opening the back door and letting our dog out anytime she wanted. She had a ton of fun! This is the fourth house we have rented and it is miles ahead of the others - there is no comparison. Thank you Kayla for Everything!

Happiness

Kayla and Trisha’s house is everything your group and your dog could ever want and need. The house is totally modernized and updated. It has 2 awesome porches, a huge fenced in yard for the dogs and everything else you could want in between. The thoughtfulness that was put into the house for guests is really amazing! I highly recommend staying here if your travels bring you to Gettysburg. Thank you for hosting my group as your guests!

Amazing stay in Gettysburg

Our family, including 2 kids and 2 dogs, immensely enjoyed our stay at the Dog House! We loved all of the doggie decor and the fenced in yard for the pups and kids to play.

About the host

Hosted by Kayla Gibbon

Host profile image
I grew up in the Gettysburg area, but was living in Los Angeles and New York for the past 10 years. I decided that I wanted to give my yellow lab Trisha the yard she'd always deserved, so I moved back home in the spring of 2021.  Living in the city truly makes you appreciate the small town way of life and I hope when you visit you'll be able to feel that difference.

Trisha is a 6 year old Labrador and she enjoys: tennis balls thrown from a nerf launcher and ONLY the nerf launcher, bacon, the beach, puddles, mud, water of any kind really, treatos, cucumbers, her cousins, Aunts & Uncles, Nonna & PopPop, and LAMBCHOP aka Lamby.
Trisha does not enjoy: Squirrels & nail trims

What makes this property unique

I know how important it can be to be able to travel with your pup. That's why it was so important for me to make my home pet friendly!
