I was a teacher for 12 years in elementary school. After our 3rd child was born i decided to stay home to take care of our children and our pets full time. I am very flexible with my schedule and our pets love visitors - animals and humans !!

Information Stephanie & Dan W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs your pets have, or any likes/dislikes. Want them to always feel comfortable with me or in our home.

A typical day

We have a young puppy and and also a senior dog. So I typically walk the younger two first thing in the morning- changing up our walks from the parks to neighborhood walks. The senior likes to go out and lie on the deck to be brushed and once in awhile will become playful with the other two. We have too many toys to count & play fetch with the youngest dog frequently. There are bones, chew toys, balls, and as I tell people all the time- our dogs favorite toys are the children who love playing games with them.

Our mini Aussiedoodle Luna is a full of energy and it’s always a little bit anxious when meeting new people, we can not said enough on how Stephanie and Dan were able to get her comfortable with the idea in so short time. Needles to said, what wanted to have was peace knowing that we were leaving her behind for a weekend. And that’s exactly what we got leaving Luna to their care.

I can’t say enough good things about Steph. She does a midday check-in for our 1 yo Australian shepherd a few days a week and he absolutely loves her. He can be a little particular about who he decides is part of the pack and Steph was able to warm him up very quickly, no doubt due to her extensive experience with animals. Steph’s communication is excellent, she’s willing to tailor her service to our dog’s needs and I have total peace of mind leaving our fur baby in her hands because she’s proven to be capable and dependable. She’s even brought one of her dogs and/or kids along sometimes to help us socialize him because I mentioned he struggled with those things. 10/10 would recommend booking Steph.
