I'm seeing $1,050 round trip from IAD to BKK mid-late January on Turkish air on Google flights. Don't put in exact dates,just look at the month view and see what's cheapest.

I've had best luck with Google flights to locate the flights and then booking directly through the airline. We flew Saudia Air last time US to BKK and it was a fantastic experience.

My husband and I both had alot of work done at Edelweiss last year. It was absolutely high quality care. They list all their prices online and get back to you quickly via phone/email. I even claimed the work with my US dental insurance and Edelweiss helped me through that process. 'Retired working for you' youtuber has a whole video about Edelweiss. That's how we found it. It's a brand new,state of the arr facility and the dental work was wonderful. They're patient,professional and very skilled. It's a relaxing environment and felt like a spa,not a dentist.

yes insurance and free vet video calls if needed. It's a whole company with member support like air bnb.

@Deb *******

just checked, for pet parents it's $149usd to $299usd for pet parents,yearly. There's different levels of benefits. It's a little cheaper for sitters. That's pretty fair, dog boarding where I live, is about $40/per night.

@Deb *******

my impression from the site was that the sitter and the property owner both paid membership, but maybe I'm wrong.

@Rachel ***

not sure, maybe even a few weeks at a time. I just learned about it and was looking into from the sitter side. I'm sure longer arrangements could be made if that worked for the sitter.

"Trusted house sitters" is a international house/pet sitting program. Basically, you pay a yearly membership, they vet the sitters like background check ect and then sitting services are free in exchange for ppl staying at your place. Kind of like WWOOFing for farmers.

@Kimberly *******

gotcha! Yes, I feel like our local vet here in Virginia is pretty reasonably priced for other things I've had done but you never know. My vet seemed like they were pretty educated on the whole process but I'm definitely learning as much as I can before the appointment.
