Your pup’s home away from home
Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs my entire life & often dog sit for friends & neighbors. I also have experience fostering for the Animal Welfare League of Arlington (AWLA) and Critter Calvary Rescue. I live in an extremely dog-friendly community and have tons of dog parks nearby. Your pup will be in loving, good hands.
Reviews
Hazel had a great time with Stefanie. From the first introduction she was kind and informative. We got updates with pictures about Hazel while on vacation. We will definitely keep boarding with Stefanie.
THANK YOU, Stefanie again for caring for our puppies over the long weekend! From the first time I first reached out, you were quick to respond and very professional. You requested for a meet a greet (which I also always require before boarding) and had asked all the right questions. I appreciated the daily updates and photos. Thank you for making sure Spunky and Moose had their exercise each day. They sure do enjoy their walks. You truly made them feel at home while away from home. I was able to feel at ease while traveling. I recommend care/boarding with Stefanie and will definitely request future bookings.
This review as long overdue. Stefanie was simply amazing. She took such good care of my dog Polly. When I say your dog will be in good hands, I can’t stress that enough. Stephanie is a true professional, a dog lover, and all in all and amazing lady. She was easy to communicate with, and I truly feel my dog had a great experience. I had recently adopted Polly and she was still hesitant around others and I feel that Stefanie helped with build her confidence and come into her own. Stefanie thank you for everything you did for my sweet Polly, you really made a difference.
Stephanie cared for our dog and entertained him throughout the day. He got in his exercise and walks and I couldn't be more pleased. Most definitely recommend her TLC for our four-legged family member. She also sends daily updates that will warm your heart while you're away.

I typically try to model whatever regimen you already have in place with your pup. If your dog is allowed on furniture, great. If not, that’s also great. I’ve got doggy beds all over my home & crates of almost every size, if your pup is crate trained. *Please be advised that I work full-time, away from home, ~8am-4pm Monday through Friday. While this schedule works for most doggy owners, it doesn’t work for all. Please consider this as it relates to your pup’s personal needs.

Information Stefanie C. would like to know about your pet
It is very important for me to understand if your dog exhibits any signs of separation anxiety when left home alone. An overly-vocal pup does not lend itself well to living in an apartment community. At this time, I can only accept dogs that get along well with other dogs, as I have a “teenage” puppy of my own. Your dog will have a high-energy, well-socialized play companion during its stay! — If you’re comfortable booking outside of the app, you can reach me at 1314:337:5754 $35/night for 1 pup, $65 for 2. Flat.
A typical day
If your pup is up for it, we’ll hit the dog park or go for a hike. You’ll be sure to get lots of pics & vids while your dog is with me!

Availability
I’m an early-riser during the week, and return home around 4pm*. Your pup will be taken out at least 3x/day and have opportunity for play/walks in the evening. Weekends, I’m typically unoccupied and free to love on your fur baby all day long!
