Loving, fun home for your pups
Pet care experience
My husband and I would love to host your pups in our home with our dog Zoe (spayed female). We sit for our friends and family and always have a blast, so why not yours too? I work from home so I'm here all day, but since I am working full time, it's nearly impossible for me to watch puppies under 6 or 8 months, based on their potty training and demeanor. We have a large yard but it is unfenced, so outside time will be leashed. Dogs will have access to our second floor deck for their sunbathing pleasure. Daily walks after work and lots of playtime until bedtime. Your dog will need to be able to climb stairs since we have a split level home but we are happy to help older dogs navigate. I have owned dogs my whole life and have trained them all to be well behaved and have a few tricks up their sleeves. If there is anything you are working on with your pup, I am happy to keep up the training. They may even come back having learned something new! We would love to care for your furry friends while you are away! If you have any questions please ask! We recently adopted 2 cats, so if your dog will chase or be aggressive with them, we won't be a good fit at this time. Thanks for understanding!
Reviews
Stephanie was GREAT with my Daisy! Super sweet and thorough. My pup came home pooped! Would recommend and book again.
Fantastic!
Absolutely the best!!! Amazing communication with photos and updates. Stephanie, her husband and lil Zoey truly excepted my pup into their pack and gave her another hone away from home
Awesome sitter. Otis loves her and zoe.

Unfenced yard. Outside time is leashed with the exception of our second floor deck which is gated and they have access to all day to go in and out as they please. We come and go through the garage so the main door can be closed as the interior door is opened to ensure your pup can't make a great escape.

Information Stephanie C. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know about your dog, what are their likes/dislikes and fears? Are they food, dog or leash aggressive? Do they have a history of separation anxiety? What goes with that, chewing, upset stomach, crying...? How do they play with toys, and which are their favorite types? What kinds of treats do they prefer? Any allergies or sensitivities? Any history of medical problems that I should be looking out for?
A typical day
We will treat your dog like they are our dog. Lots of love, play time and exercise. My dog, Zoe, loves meeting and playing with new friends. I have listed that I will take 2 dogs at a time but if you have more please contact me and we can discuss if we can make it work.
