Join Our Family! Home Full-Time❤️

Welcome to Our Family! ❤️ A Home Full of Loving Care for Your Baby! Hello, I'm Stephanie! My life has been dedicated to two of my greatest passions: education and medicine. In both fields, I've learned that the most important skills are deep patience, keen observation, and a truly compassionate heart; all of which translate beautifully into caring for our best friends, our babies who have noble hearts and are there for us no matter what, our pets. Understanding a child’s unspoken needs is so much like noticing a dog's subtle cues, and my joy comes from making them feel safe, understood, and loved. When you choose us, you're choosing a family that is so thankful and excited to welcome your baby (your pet) into our home. My path pursuing medical school (future doctor here! working on it!) has also taught me so much about building trust through kindness and consistency—something I’ve found that pets respond to just as deeply as people do. I believe every pet, like every person, has a unique personality, energy level, and way of communicating, and it’s my joy to get to know each one. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🫂 WE ARE FOREVER GRATEFUL. THANK YOU: My family and I are so grateful for every person who considers our home for their beloved pup. To our incredible returning clients, a special thank you for your continued trust in us—it is the highest compliment to be chosen again and again to care for your sweet fur babies! We will forever be grateful and we are so blessed to be doing this for a couple of years now. It is our joy to do this! 🫂🤗 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Welcome to the Family! 🏠 At our home, your dog won’t just be a guest; they’ll be a treasured member of our family. We are home full-time, so your pup is never alone and is always surrounded by love and supervision. And if you need drop-ins, we will be there too! Without my parents, I do not think I could do this!!!! We are a team!!!!!! ☑️ My Dad: He's the ultimate dog whisperer! You’ll find him sitting outside with the pups, playing gentle games in the yard, and even teaching them a few Spanish words as they soak up the sun together. ☑️ My Mom: The heart of our home, she’s always ready with endless love and cuddles. With her own healthcare background, she's wonderful at helping with medications or preparing special meals to make sure every dog feels perfectly pampered. ☑️ My Little Sister (12): She absolutely adores our dog guests! She’ll read them stories, watch cartoons by their side, and gets so excited for morning puppy kisses before school. ☑️ And me? I joyfully handle all the daily care, fun walks, and personalized routines, making sure there is a constant supply of playtime, attention, and love. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stay Connected While You're Away! Your peace of mind is everything. I’ll send you daily photos and videos so you can see all the tail wags, cozy snuggles, and happy moments! If you ever want to check in, I’m always happy to hop on a quick video chat. Please, do not hesitate to call or text. I understand you might feel worried or anxious, so please let me know how we can best help you! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🙂 Special Medical Needs? We've Got You Covered! From oral medications and insulin injections to IV support, I have the experience to handle special medical care with confidence and compassion. Your pet’s health and happiness are always my number one priority. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ First-Time on Rover? 😺 Promo Code: stephc01932 $20 off your first booking! If you're booking last-minute, no problem at all! I just ask for a quick video call so we can meet and I can learn all about your wonderful pup. 📹 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🤩 I can’t wait to hear from you and welcome your pup into our loving home. I always request a meet-and-greet before any stay (or a video call for last-minute bookings) because it’s so important that you feel completely comfortable and that I get to know your furry family member.

Schedule

Your furry friend will be showered with love and attention in our home, we are here full-time. My dad keeps a loving eye on them during outdoor time to ensure they're always safe and happy. My mom works from home and adores having a furry 'office assistant' snoozing by her desk for company. As for me, I'm the official walker (with your permission, of course!) and study buddy…your pup will always have a cozy doggy bed right next to me while I work. In our house, there's truly never a lonely moment! And my sister, she will cuddle with them. They will always have someone!

A typical day

A day with us is structured entirely around your pup's happiness, comfort, and fun! We believe in a balanced routine that blends stimulating activity with plenty of relaxation and love. Our Daily Rhythm: 5:00 AM-6:30AM - Early Morning Potty Break: Our day starts bright and early with a quiet trip outside to make sure everyone is comfortable and starts the day right. Morning (Post-Breakfast): After they've had their breakfast, we head out for a refreshing morning walk to stretch our legs, sniff around, and explore the neighborhood sights and sounds. Midday Playtime (Weather Permitting): The afternoon is dedicated to fun! We spend a great deal of time in our securely fenced yard, where all outdoor time is fully supervised. If the weather is beautiful, we’ll soak up the sun and enjoy the fresh air. On warm days, we love to bring out a small doggy pool or a gentle sprinkler for some exciting water play! If it's too hot or rainy, the party moves indoors for personalized games with their favorite squeaky toys. Evening Wind-Down: As the day winds down, we shift into relaxation mode. We're a family of big cuddlers, so they can expect lots of cozy snuggle sessions on the couch and plenty of belly rubs. This often turns into a full-blown family movie night where your pup gets the best seat in the house! Throughout it all, we ensure they have potty breaks every hour or two and are constantly showered with love and one-on-one attention. Our goal is to make sure they're not just cared for, but are truly happy, engaged, and having a wonderful time! VACATION TIME!

❤️ Getting to Know Your Pup! To make sure your dog has the best possible stay, please tell me a little bit about them. The more I know, the better I can make them feel right at home! 📋 Personality & Play: How would you describe their temperament (social, shy, energetic)? What are their favorite games, toys, or activities? Are there any fears or anxieties I should know about? 📋 Health & Diet: Does your dog have any allergies, dietary needs, or medical conditions? Please provide their own food and treats to keep their tummy happy. Let me know of any medications they need—I am experienced with pills and injections. 📋 Routine & Comforts: What is their daily schedule for meals, walks, and bedtime? You are welcome to bring their favorite bed, blanket, or toy to help them settle in! 📋 Social Setting: To create the best environment, would your dog be happier as the only guest pup (along with my dog), or are they comfortable with other friendly dogs? Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. Lastly, for the safety of all pups, please provide a copy of their current vaccination records. Thank you!
