Pet care experience

My hobby/passion is to love on doggos, no matter what mood I am in but it is also my job! I am a vet tech at a clinic here in the DMV and have years of experience with all types of dogs, I know how to handle difficult situations, administer medications as needed and will give your fur baby the love and attention they deserve. If your dog is good around cats, young children, and other dogs then boarding is also something I will 100% provide. I am more than happy to take your dog on extra walks, dog parks, etc. I also have experience training puppys and socializing them, therefore, if you have a puppy that still needs that constant redirection, I am your girl!

We can’t say enough thank you(s) to Stephanie! She took care of our Denver Dog over Christmas while we were traveling. I was having a lot of anxiety over leaving him with a stranger since we are new to the area, but as soon as I met Stephanie I felt at ease. Her dog Luna is so sweet and well behaved, Denver loved her! When I walked in the door with Stephanie, I’m not sure who Denver was more excited to see! He got lots of love from Stephanie & Luna. We have new friends because of this booking & will definitely be happy to use Stephanie in the future!

Wow, usually when I arrive home from travel my cat frantically runs around and meows with excitement to see me. Not this time! Stephanie had him so relaxed and pampered he couldn’t have cared less! Hahaha. Anecdotes aside, Stephanie was exceptionally prompt and professional from the beginning and I believe she went above and beyond in taking care of George and reassuring me that he was comfortable and happy. I feel very fortunate to have had her help and would give her more than five stars if I could.

Stephanie was so awesome! She sent me pictures twice a day and I really appreciated that! When I dropped kiwi off, she had a very friendly dog that gets along with small dogs with made me feel better since kiwi needs someone to play with. I hope that I don’t need to leave kiwi for an extended period again but if I do, I would definitely ask Stephanie again!

Stephanie did an amazing job taking care of my Miley. She always updated and wasn't afraid to ask questions. I for once got to go away for the weekend and feel at ease about the well being of my pup!

Information Stephanie H. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences as long as they are good with cats (if day care or over night stay). I would like to know any fur baby’s health issues, quirks, likes/dislikes in order to accomodate all their needs!

A typical day

I absolutely love going on long walks with dogs (depending on their stamina). My apartment complex has a small dog park which is nice for off leash play time. Depending on the owner I am more than happy to take dogs on small hiking trails, socialize in dog friendly places (outdoor coffee houses), etc.
