I care for your animals as my own
Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs, both big and small, almost my whole life. I currently have 2 pitbull mixes and a Rottie mix so I also know how to care for a multiple dog family. I have raised both puppies and senior dogs. I have a soft spot for the breeds and dogs with “bad” reputations. I have worked professionally with animals for 2 years now, both independently and at a boarding facility. My whole life has been centered around animals, with a focus on dogs. I have studied dog breeds, training, and behavior my whole life, it’s truly a passion.
Reviews
This is the second time we’ve used Stephanie for our dog. Our dog loves her and she takes great care of her. Especially since we know our dog can be a little stubborn 😆 We always receive detailed updates and photos. I would highly recommend Stephanie for anyone who needs a reliable, kind pet sitter.
I felt comfortable leaving my girls under Stephanie's care. We looked forward to the daily report card and photos. We were greeted gleefully by our girls when we arrived home after 11 days. I would highly recommend Stephanie for your petsitting needs.
Stephanie was absolutely amazing and we are so thankful for all of her help with Finley and Franklin! Highly recommend! She also sent the most amazing and detailed updates!
Stephanie was wonderful! She put me at ease knowing Rufus was taken care of. I completely trusted her in my home and Rufus warmed up to her immediately. We would definitely hire her again!

Safety, trust & environment
I will respect both your space as well as your dogs. When it comes to your home, I’ll only enter the necessary rooms and spaces. I can safely crate, feed, and give oral medications as well as a doggy inhaler.
Information Stephanie D. would like to know about your pet
When walking dogs, I would like to know if there’s any special needs or requests for your dogs. Whether it’s using a specific collar and leash to which route they usually take. If I am dog sitting, I would like to know their feeding schedule and daily schedule so I can keep their routine as close to normal as possible. I would also like to know if any special needs or requests so I can take proper care of your pup.
A typical day
I love to go on walks with dogs and play their favorite games, like fetch or tug-of-war. If there is an empty dog park nearby, I love taking high energy dogs there to get them running around. I always make sure to give plenty of pets and love at the end of every session.
