About

Meet Kyle and Jenny.

We started hosting in 2019 with a home in Joshua Tree, then added one at Sea Ranch in 2022. Together they became The Wild Kindness.

After six years as owner-operators, we started Gather Stays to host homes for other owners, beginning in Sonoma County. The goal is the one we set for our own homes: more revenue for the owner, better stays for guests, and a home you still love to use.
