I'm hesitant to write a review because I don't like giving people bad reviews but my experience with Stephanie wasn't great. I chose her, despite her expensive fee, because she had good reviews and I wanted to leave my home and dog in good hands while I was on a local trip with a friend. I ended up coming home early due to the heat wave to find Stephanie had her bf over, which was my only rule. I asked that she not have any guests because my dog has a hard enough time adjusting to one new person...also, covid. I wasn't meaning to catch her as I was just coming home to grab my scooter from outside but she and her bf were outside waiting on a Lyft. She told me he never came inside but at that moment, I decided to check in on my dog because her behavior was suspicious as if she had been caught. His hat was inside and some of my alcohol had been consumed... the lid on the vodka was put back on so tightly that I literally had to cut it off. My dog crate had been moved so that the door could be shut which made me think she locked my dog in the crate. I never lock my dog in and don't see why she would have needed to do that unless she had a friend over. This experience upset me as my whole purpose of having Stephanie over was to play with and hang out with my dog. I live very close to the beach and requested that she take the dog there but she didn't end up having time (though she did have plenty of time to go to Dolores park with her bf). She also told me that the guy she had over she had only met 3x...so she had a stranger in my home. I ended up ending my trip and having her pack her things a day early. Unfortunately, I would not recommend Stephanie.

Stephanie watched our 5-month old puppy while we were gone for 4 nights. She was super attentive to our pup, spent almost all day with her, and sent us pics and videos throughout. Our house was clean when we got in, and she seemed to really respect our home. I'd recommend Stephanie to watch your pet and your home and would rebook with her. Thank you for taking care of Dylan!
