Plenty of play and lots of love!

Pet care experience

Hi, i’m Stephanie, and i’d be honored to spend some time with your dog! I’ve had multiple dogs all my life and taken care of them since I was a child. I moved to Oregon a little over two years ago, and made friends that would bring their dogs around every time we got together. My boyfriend, Sean, and I ended up caring for these dogs while each of our friends went out of town at different times. We fell in love with having a dog around again, so my boyfriend and I made the decision to rescue our own puppy. It was the best decision we ever made. Layla is now 1.5 years old and is basically our child. She loves everyone (dogs, cats, people), plays hard, cuddles harder, and is just a sweet and adventurous girl! I am a graduate student in psychology with a decently flexible schedule and my boyfriend is usually home when i’m not. We have a townhome, so it's a couple floors and plenty of room as well as a big toy basket to keep them entertained. There’s also several hiking trails connected to our property. I love spending my time with Layla, whether cuddling on the couch, playing in the house, going out to dog parks, walks/hiking and all around adventure! Layla LOVES getting to play with others. That's why I think this is perfect! I'd love to help someone else out, give them peace of mind that their fur baby is safe and happy and loved (you WILL get pictures), and give Layla some extra fun as a way to bring in some extra money while i’m in school and not able to work. We also have a cat who does her own thing (which usually means sleeping under our bed or in the bathtub); she's been around dogs her whole life, but we do have the gate for separation as an option. As I mentioned, I live with my boyfriend, who is also a dog lover! He is at work most of the day, which is why I will be the primary caregiver, but at night and on weekends there will be an extra person to love and play with your dog! We would be so happy and honored to be trusted with yours.

Stephanie is absolutely amazing! She has taken care of my dog and cats plenty of times! She’s always so wonderful! One of the only people I trust to take care of my fur babies! I always highly suggest her to all of my friends and family that are looking for a pet sitters!

Stephanie is the sweetest and most caring person! She is one of the few people I trust to watch and care for my dog, and she always treats him like he's her own. I know that she provides him with love, affection, and playtime when she watches him. I would highly recommend her to take care of your animals!

Stephanie is the best! Our pup Virgil loves spending time with her and is always well taken care of. He loves playing with her pup, Layla, too and always comes home tired and happy! You can tell Stephanie has a genuine love for dogs and I would be comfortable leaving Virgil with her anytime!

Stephanie was flexible and accommodating with our schedule. She kept us updated with pictures and comments, and was quick to respond when I would check in. Our Bailey loved playing with Layla and Stephanie gave her the snuggles she loves! I highly recommend Stephanie!

A typical day

Our neighborhood is filled with beautiful trails (with lots of opportunities for different sniffs) we go walking on every day. I also enjoy going for hikes, if that is something your dog enjoys. We have a million toys, a lazer pointer we use to get dogs to run up and down the stairs, and when they are all tired out I appreciate the fur baby cuddles!
