Pup lover 🥰

Hi! I’m Stephanie, and I absolutely love pups! 🐾 I grew up with dogs and now have a 4-year-old staffy mix named Cricket and another who is 5 months old named Louie. They are both very friendly, loves other dogs, adore people, and usually becomes best friends with every dog who stays with us! We go to parks daily and love when new furry friends join us. I can keep your pup at my home during the day and accommodate any feeding or health needs. We get out at least twice a day, giving plenty of opportunity for exercise and playtime. Your dog will get lots of attention, socialization, and safe, monitored play. We also enjoy hikes and outdoor adventures! I drive a Subaru Forester, so there’s plenty of room to transport multiple dogs if your pup enjoys exploring. My pups are treat-motivated, and I’m happy to share treats with your dog if that’s something they enjoy—just let me know what works best for them. We’d love to meet your pup and make them feel part of our adventures here in Sioux Falls!

Stephanie did an amazing job watching my two cats while I was away on vacation! She was incredibly attentive, had excellent communication, and sent so many cute pictures and videos to keep me updated. She left my apartment in amazing condition, it was such a relief to come home to a clean place. My cats absolutely loved her, and I could tell they were completely at ease with her. I would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring companion for their fur babies while they’re away!

Stephanie was great! She really knows dogs and greeted my puppy really well to make him comfortable with her. She was on time and really good with Sam. I will definitely be requesting bookings with her again.

Safety, trust & environment

My pup is free to roam around the house when I'm home or away. She also has a crate that she loves and is able to stay in there if that would make your dog more comfortable! My house is a dog friendly one with a unfenced yard that we are ablet to run and play in. I feed my dog twice a day and she is ok being fed around other dogs, but I am able to separate them during feeding time if that is necessary. My dog is also ok sharing toys so if yours enjoys playing with toys my dog would love to share what she has!

Pets

A typical day

When I take the pups that I watch out I will often take them on neighborhood walks and to local parks. I also will frequent the hikes in the area and do off leash hiking where we can. I have my own dog named Cricket and she LOVES other dogs; she will tag along with us on our adventures if your pup does well with others :)
