Pet care experience

Caring sitter, happy dogs!

I’ve been a dog lover since I was six years old, growing up with pets back home in Guatemala. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs—big, small, playful, and shy—and I’ve gained experience with everything from daily walks to giving medication. I currently don’t have pets of my own, which means I can give your dog my full attention. You can expect lots of walks, playtime, love, and regular photo and video updates. I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment and I’m home all the time, so overnight care is never a problem. I’m here to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home!

We left our baby with Stephanie for 2 weeks and we enjoyed how she sent us daily pics & videos. Our dog looked very comfortable and settled in. She walked and played with her. Seeing my 11yo senior dog playing made our hearts smile. She doesnt play in her own home which reminds me that I need to ask her, 'what toy was that'!! We are very happy with Stephanie and will use her services again ❤️

Ollie was so happy to see Stephanie again, she takes him on long walk around Lyndhurst and he is always well cared for.

Ollie was very happy to go with Stephanie into her house and relax and then she took him for a nice brisk walk which he really enjoyed. Overall he seemed very relaxed around her which was great for us to know while we spent an evening at.

Stephanie was fantastic! Super easy to work with and was very communicative. She was kind enough to bathe our dog sunny after they went outside and had some tics. Sunny seemed to have a very good time and loved Stephanie 😊

Terrific experience. Easy. My dog had an awesome time. He came back happy, clean and tired.

Schedule

I work part-time in the mornings and am free the rest of the day, and I’m available to board your dog anytime that works for you. Since I work nearby, I can easily accommodate your schedule for drop-offs and pick-ups. I spend most of my time at home, giving plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks—it’s a great way for them to get exercise and have fun. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I love being active with animals and making sure they feel happy and loved all day long.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a calm, pet-friendly environment where your dog can feel safe, relaxed, and loved. My home is free of harmful plants and other hazards, I always keep the space clean and comfortable. I have a big yard where I can walk and play with your dog throughout the day, giving them plenty of exercise and attention. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs so they feel right at home. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, and I’m happy to follow any routines that help them feel secure. I know trust matters, so I always keep pet parents updated with photos, videos, and clear communication.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on walks and exploring new trails so they can get some fresh air, check out new smells, and stretch their legs. I also play with them to help burn off extra energy and keep things fun.
