Highlights
Pet care experience
Gentle, loving caregiver.
I love all dogs and cats, and birds. My whole life I have had dogs and cats. Over many years, my pets have been schnauzer mix, sheepdog mix, rottweiler, pitbull mix, boxer mixes, and now Yorkie mixes. I am strong and love to walk dogs and play. I allow pets on furniture and beds. But if you don't want your pet to bring these habits to your home, I will honor your requests to keep them off the furniture. I am experienced with bathing dogs, but I am not a groomer or nail trimmer. I am energetic and attentive to your pets needs. Senior dog care is my specialty. I have soft pet stairs to get to the couch and bed. I have a pet stroller for sniffing and sight seeing without over exertion. We also have pet pads and diapers if incontinence is an issue. Our home is clean and pet friendly/safe. We are looking forward to caring for your pet🐕

Ratings and reviews
We are so lucky to have found Stephanie and Ferland. Our dogs love them and are excited for their stays there. Stephanie and Ferland give them amazing care.
Cannot recommend Stephanie and her family more. We are so glad that our dogs are able to stay with them while we are away.
Always reliable and always provides updates. I appreciate her care for my high energy dog, makes me feels comfortable to leave our dog in her care. That's what makes keep coming back. :)
We feel safe when our dogs are with Stephanie.
our pup Luna always seems to come back happy and content from her day care with Stephanie and her doggies. Happy they enjoy our Luna's puppy energy. And she always gives me the rover report card after every care she does for us. Thanks Stephanie.
Gus and Dude always have amazing stays with Stephanie!

Schedule
I am available most days and weekends. This is perfect for pets with separation anxiety or pets who have a lot of energy and want to play or walk a lot. I have a 1 mile walk 2x per day. Lots of shade and slow minimal cars in the area.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I will maintain any habits you have for your pet. Yes on furniture, no on furniture. Yes to crate(I have large and small crates) or no crate. Special diet or simple diet. Etc. I have experience with giving meds- oral, topical, injection (intramuscular or subcutaneous...not intravenous), ear meds, wound care. I have 2 small dogs. But if you dog doesn't appreciate other dogs, I can easily keep them separated. My yard is securely fenced and I have dog doors for anytime access and can be closed for any reason ex: at night etc. I am very trainable to care for your pet the way you want them to be treated.
Pets
A typical day
We will walk the neighborhood, (about a mile loop) or Atascadero Lake (about 1.3 miles). If your dog likes to run off leash. We'll go to the gated dog park. Heilman Park in Atascadero. Or name a place you take you dog. During hotter months we will walk in early morning, late evening, or I will take your pup to the Morro Bay Beach. A free bath is included after the beach.
