Let me spoil your fur-baby!

Pet care experience

I’m Stefanie and I have been a dog-lover since birth! I grew up having Shih Tzus and now I have one of my own!! Scout Hermione is 6 years old and my pride and joy! She may or may not have a bow for every holiday... I have experience with light grooming (bathing, brushing hair, nail clipping, brushing teeth, etc.), and administering oral meds. Special canine skills: kissing on the mouth, snuggling, belly rubs, taking cute pictures.

Stephanie was a wonderful sitter for our dog, Buddy! She asked questions as needed, took him for walks and sent pictures to keep us posted. We highly recommend Stephanie and would definitely use her again to watch Buddy!

Stefanie absolutely loves dogs! She always has a friendly pat on the head and kind word for my two. She is reliable when I ask for her help in letting them out and usually goes the extra mile and stays for awhile to play. My dogs adore her and her sweet pup Scout!!!

Stefanie is a wonderful person and pet sitter! She truly loves animals, is completely trustworthy and responsible, and I would 100% trust her with my pets, or my children! Our family has known Stefanie for years, and she has cared for our dog, and our home, many times. Stefanie loves all dogs as much as she loves her own! Any dog would be lucky to have her care for them, and I would recommend her to anyone who wants their dog to be as well cared for and loved as they are at home.

Safety, trust & environment

Rest easy knowing your pup is safe and sound in my cozy bungalow! I own a ridiculous amount of fleece blankets for your dog to curl up with anywhere along my big sectional sofa or bed. I have a large fenced in backyard for frolicking and live nearby two parks for walking when the weather permits (Scout owns many coats but I don’t walk her unless the temps are over 35-ish degrees). I am the type of dog owner who puts the back of her hand on the asphalt in the summer to make sure it isn’t too hot for little paws. Safety first!! I also have wonderful, dog-friendly neighbors and family nearby to help give potty breaks in a pinch! Scout has literally never met a stranger (human, dog, or otherwise) and would be thrilled to have a new playmate during your pup’s stay. Her past times include fetching squeaky toys, posing for the camera, and silently pleading for peanut butter. While I think it is best to limit one guest at a time I am open to more dogs at once if they are from the same family.
