Play All Day & Night in UH
Pet care experience
Hi There! Thanks for your interest in me! Board your little one with me for 24/7 supervision. I will always take your dog on 3-4 walks a day minimum. We have a dog park across the street and will be also visiting it during your stay. I truly love dogs and care for them as they are my own so this is why I believe in the 24/7 care. I will treat your pup like I do with Ralph & Nap. I have a small miniature schnauzer and a lab mix that loves to play with all dogs. Since I have a little one as well, I tend to only take one dog (or two if they're siblings) at a time and prefer dogs under 50 lbs. (Exceptions can be made, but please ask first) If there is more than one dog booked, i'll take into consideration of the dog who was booked first and their behaviors before accepting another dog. About Me: I have recently relocated back to San Diego after a couple of years of non stop moving. I have a bachelor's degree in Marketing & International Business from the University of San Diego. I am currently on sabbatical and not working full time, so I truly have all the time to take care of your pup. On my free time, I enjoy going on hikes, golfing and traveling to new places. The Neighborhood: I live in luxury building in University Heights with walking distance to North Park and Hillcrest and is a pet friendly apartment complex. We are friends with all the dogs that live in the area and know most owners. There will be a dog park built inside the complex come November. The complex is located off of the 163 conveniently located 15 minutes from the San Diego International Airport.
Reviews
Stephanie was so patient with our anxious puppy, as it was his second time staying away from home. We appreciate her sending us updates with photos and videos of his well-being and playtime with her dogs. But what blew us away, was her meticulous care and sense of responsibility while caring for Louie. He had a bit of diarrhea while on a walk due to his anxiety, and she took it upon herself to wash his backside thoroughly in her bath. Plus, she managed the playtimes with her dogs, when things got rowdy with the energy of our puppy. That just goes to show how much she cares for any fur babies in her care! Louie thanks you for his undivided attention and looks forward to future visits with his auntie!
Stephanie is a very experienced dog owner. She spoiled my pup with walks and play time and made him feel right at home. She also sent several photos and videos and kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay. Highly recommend Stephanie’s services.
Stephanie did a great job taking care of my two pups while I was away for a holiday vacation. I got multiple updates each day including pictures and video. I have also used her walking services many times and am very happy with the care she gives as well as the highly detailed descriptions she puts in the walk cards. She is fast to respond to texts and quick to answer questions/concerns. She is also quite knowledgeable about dog training and has given me useful tips for working with one of my newer rescue pups. All in all, she is a caring dog lover and responsible sitter!
Stephanie was AMAZING!!! She had my little guy over night and he came home so happy. She took loads of pics and kept me well updated. For sure a great person to watch your dog and I will certainly use her again as she is now my top favorite Rover.com sitter. Thanks Stephanie.

Safety, trust & environment
Dogs are like family to me so they will be treated as so in this household. They mostly have free rein in the house with the exception of my bedroom but will be allowed everywhere else. If we end up having and issues and the dogs somehow don't get along we'll section off part of the place so they can still roam free and not be stuck in a crate all day. Puppies will be crated at night while we sleep. Exceptions will be made for repeat dogs and pups who have shown they're responsible.

Information Stephanie L. would like to know about your pet
To be accepted, all dogs must be up to date on vaccinations and have the records ready, must be on flea and tick preventative and not an excessive barker. To book, I require all Meet & Greets to happen before taking any pup in. Please do not send a reservation request without sending a general inquiry first. During the Meet & Greet, I will ask you a series of questions to get to know your pup. Ralph, Nap and I will have the chance to meet and do their evaluations. We'll take it from there. In special circumstances, we can waive the Meet & Greet and will discuss everything else via chat or on the phone. Please request a meet & greet before making a booking. Please feel free to contact me for any other questions! Follow us on Instagram to see more photos, videos and updates while you're pup is with us! @whereisralphie
A typical day
I will always take your dog on 3-4 walks a day minimum. We typically like going around the neighborhood and may be walked solo or with one of the pups. We have a dog park across the street and will be also visiting it during your stay.

Availability
While you're away, be at ease and know that your pup is in good hands. I can send pictures or short videos and we can even have FaceTime set up to see your little fella. I have a pooch myself so i know what it's like to have a stranger watch your prized possession. I usually work from home FT but am currently on sabbatical and not working full time so I have plenty of time to spoil your pup! We will be going on multiple walks per day and visits to nearby dog parks.
