Pet care experience
I was raised by dogs. Well as close as you can get. An only child raised along side two lab puppies the same age, I have never known a life without dogs. Even before I was old enough to adopt some of my own, I was taking care of other dogs, fawning over and genuinely excited to see almost every dog I met. My husband and I adopted a dog only 6 weeks after moving into a house with a yard, that's how excited we were! We have added another pup to the fam, making it a two dog, one cat household. We have an animal lover friend group, allowing us to get our pet sitting fix on with caring for friends' cats and dogs along side our animal crew. We love walks, park days, even a dog beach day when its really hot out. I'm comfortable treating any minor ailments, giving medication and caring for anxious dogs. I will love your pup like my own and hopefully they'll have a blast playing with our two pups in our fully fenced back yard! I, along with my husband, work from home full time so there will always be someone around to play, snuggle, and take your dog outside. We love midday walks and spending the sunny mornings in our fully fenced back yard with newly installed astro turf. On weekends we like to go to the dog park or a nice hike, but will happily stick to a schedule you feel comfortable with. We have meal times in our home due to the number of animals, so hopefully your dog would adapt to this if possible. They are able to be let out as much as needed throughout the day and can be separated from the other animals if necessary as well.
Reviews
So honored to have them watch my pets! I will definitely be using them again.
They are absolutely wonderful with Frisco. He is extremely attached to us and has a hard time being away, Steph and Marco made him feel safe and comfortable ?
Steph and Marco were housesitters for us for a week. Our pets were so happy, got lots of attention and play. Our house was well taken care of and clean! Would definitely recommend them.
Rosie had a great stay with Steph and Marco! They sent regular updates with photos which is super important for us. They have 2 very friendly dogs and a cat and a great backyard for all of them to play in, also take them on regular walks. Rosie came back a happy tired puppy after her vacation with them. Highly recommend and we’ll be booking again in the future. Thank you!

We have a fully fenced backyard with a camera. Our dogs have rules and commands they follow well, if you're comfortable we'll follow the same rules with your dog. If not, we'll happily comply with the way you're raising your pup. Let us know your dogs dietary requirements, treat preferences and meal time routine and we will keep them on their normal schedule -- making the transition from your home to ours as easy as possible!
Home
Information Steph & Marco W. would like to know about your pet
We want your dog to be as happy as possible being away from you and their home! Please let us know their dietary needs, toy/play preferences and any quirks or fears they may have. We have dealt with dog anxiety, food allergies, giving medicine, baths, resource guarding, and more.
A typical day
Day time stimulation is important, especially for dogs of Work from Home parents. We often put on dog tv, put out the good toys, and make sure they get plenty of outside chill time. We love going on walks in our local park - Ruby Hill Park, along our local creek path, and we'll drive to Washington Park or even a dog off leash area in Cherry Creek (only if you're comfortable). The daily routine is either a neighborhood walk or a walk around our small lake by us, Huston Lake.

Availability
I (Steph) will be doing most of the care. If you're hiring for house sitting, Steph will be the one caring for your pets and home. However, we are both home full time so Marco will also be around your pets if they are boarded with us (hence both names in the profile!) There always be someone to let your pup out when they need it, midday walks and cuddles and plenty of play with our dogs inside and out in our fenced backyard.
