I'm happy to take dogs out often!
Pet care experience
Hi! I am a therapist and university instructor working from home out of the Woodley Park neighborhood in DC. I have been an animal lover my whole life! I am comfortable with a large range of sizes and personalities of all types of dogs and am a former caretaker of an FIV positive kitty. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter to help out with dog walking and cleaning animal crates. I am attentive to a dogs needs and love taking them for walks! I'm very energetic, and would be happy to take your dog running around or to play. I also love cuddly animals and am happy to give affection as needed.
Reviews
I really appreciated Stephanie's frequent updates and the extra level of care she put into making sure our anxious pup was calm and happy. From the pictures and from Leslie's demeanor when I picked her up, it was clear that Leslie had a great time! Thanks, Stephanie!
Stephanie was a really nice person, she relatively followed instructions, and I think overall Molly (my dog) enjoyed her stay there. The only main issue I had was she ended up telling me the 1 night I had Molly staying with her, she stayed out late with her friends until 4am. It breaks my heart to know Molly was alone in a different environment for that long. If you do choose to use her, I would say be really clear on your expectations for when you’d like her to be home with your dogs so that if you don’t want your dog alone at night, this won’t happen to you.
Stephanie is awesome! She’s friendly and flexible! My dog seemed very comfortable with her from the time we first arrived. Stephanie sent pictures to show how relaxed my dog was and was super easy to communicate with. I will be using her again! Thank you Stephanie!
Stephanie was great with Sheba! She was easy to contact and communicate with, sent pictures, and asked questions to clarify! Sheba was well taken care of. Will use again!

I have a one bedroom, pet safe apartment. Plants and other potentially dangerous items are kept out of reach. Pets are free to use my bed or furniture for resting, but I am also happy to maintain "furniture free" boundaries if that's what they are used to.

A typical day
There's a dog park near my house that I would love to take your dog to. There are also several walking trails near me. I am athletic, and will enjoy playing and running around with your dog!
