As devoted dog parents ourselves, my fiancé and I welcome your furry friend into our family with open arms. Since we both work from home full-time, we have ample time and attention to give your pup. They will enjoy company throughout the day, with the option of a cozy crate or quiet room if they need some downtime. Our fenced yard and two friendly dogs ensure plenty of entertainment for your fur-child.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pup will have supervised access to the entire house, with fresh water, treats, meals, and any medications provided as instructed. We have plenty of toys to keep them entertained and happy throughout their stay. Pets are welcome on the furniture, so please give them a bath before arrival, or I’m happy to offer a bath service if needed. If your dog tends to run, just let me know—I’ll make sure they are safe and secure! I specialize in caring for puppies, newborn litters, seniors (I have a soft spot for older pups), and disabled dogs. I’m experienced with various needs, behaviors, and quirks, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s specific requirements. While I primarily board smaller dogs, I can consider dogs up to 50lbs. Unfortunately, I cannot accept larger dogs who may be unruly, have escape or digging tendencies, or play too roughly with smaller pets. I usually host up to two other dogs, so it’s important that your pup is comfortable and friendly with other pets. If you prefer a quieter, solo environment, we have separate, cozy areas where they can relax peacefully. However, if the idea of your dog enjoying playful romps, friendly wrestling, and lively games of chase with new friends excites you, this is the perfect place! My goal is for your dog to have a fun vacation here with us! ❗️Starting May 2024❗️ • Boarding: Pickup and drop-off hours are between 8 AM and 8 PM. If you have an early or late travel schedule, you’re welcome to arrange an evening drop-off before departure or a morning pickup after arrival. • Daycare: Pickup and drop-off hours are between 8 AM and 6 PM. Early morning drop-offs can be accommodated with advance notice. Pickups after 6 PM can also be arranged for an additional $15 extended pickup fee. • I will no longer be accepting male dogs who mark indoors. If you have a dog who *MAY* mark, please provide belly bands for their stay as a precaution. • While pups do have access to the backyard consistently to relieve themselves, senior dogs who cannot make it through the night without peeing or who have urinary incontinence will need a diaper or belly band as a precaution. • If you’d like pickup or drop-off service, please let me know! I’m happy to provide a cost quote based on your location. 🦺SAFETY MEASURES Safety is our top priority. To keep our furry guests safe and comfortable, I follow a few key precautions: • Each dog is fed separately to ensure individual attention during mealtime. • Dogs are given at least two hours after eating before playtime to help prevent bloating. • I’m unable to accommodate dogs with high or severe anxiety. • I prefer dogs that are crate-trained unless they can be left unattended for short periods without accidents or destructive behavior. ⛔️DROP-OFF/PICKUP & COVID PROTOCOL To maintain social distancing guidelines, we will greet you outside to collect your pup. For safety reasons, we do not allow access to the interior of our home. To keep you connected, we’re happy to provide daily photos and videos of your furry friend during their stay, so you can be assured they are happy, safe, and enjoying their time! Please let us know your expected arrival time so we can ensure everything is ready and prepared! 🚨IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT CANINE RESPIRATORY DISEASE Your pet’s health is my top priority, and I am taking all necessary precautions to protect against the unknown canine respiratory illness for both your dog and mine: 1. Please ensure your dog is up-to-date on their canine flu and Bordetella vaccinations. 2. Avoid visiting dog parks before your stay. 3. If your dog has shown any unusual signs of coughing, please contact a vet immediately. A positive review would be greatly appreciated, even if you’ve left one before! For your reference, Rover takes 20% of all costs from bookings. For example, if you’re paying your sitter $100 for a full-time housesit, your sitter gets $80. Tips go 100% to the sitter, no matter who you choose.

Expert Care Fur Your Peace Of Mind!

Pet care experience

I have a passion for caring for pets and have been pet sitting for families in the Medina-Bellevue area for 15 years! Our home is a calm and welcoming haven for dogs, featuring a FENCED BACKYARD perfect for play and relaxation. My own dogs love trail walks nearby, and I prioritize safety by keeping leashes on when outside the home. I’ll keep you updated with frequent (and adorable!) photos during your pet’s stay. We are committed to quality care and maintain our home and yard to keep them free of pests like fleas, ticks, and bugs, so you can rest easy knowing your pets are in a comfortable and clean environment.

Really flexible and easy to work with, especially on short notice. We were just visiting in town and she was able to take us in without any issues. Super reliable with my puppy, really appreciate the help!

Stephanie’s place was the perfect first sleepover destination for our sweet Bizzy. She was so kind and caring, and her two pups got along great with our girl’s high energy. Stephanie sent text updates & photos, making us feel super comfortable with how things were going. We couldn’t have found a sweeter sitter.
