Pet care experience
I am a dedicated canine professional and best friend of man's best friend. I try to make every visit as enriching as possible, because my end goal is a fulfilled dog. I don't just want to walk your dog around the block and leave it at that - I want to play games, teach fun new tricks, and let your dog smell the exciting smells along the way. I want your dog to feel fulfilled because they had their definition of a great time, not just because they moved their legs! I have over 8 years of hands-on professional and volunteer experience, such as volunteering for over 100 hours at Austin Pets Alive! Moreover, in my free time I compete with my own dogs in dog sports such as Obedience, Rally, Scent Work, and Dock Diving. Through my variety of experiences I have learned valuable insights about the complicated needs of diverse dogs. Additionally, I'm told I take some of the best doggy update photos in the biz! I know you miss your best friend, and I want to make sure you feel connected through the updates even while you are away.
Reviews
Stephanie has always taken absolutely amazing care of my Carolina dog named Sadie. Stephanie is always prompt and punctual. Stephanie is so patient with Sadie, she truly has a way with her. Sadie (my pup) can be a bit difficult sometimes but Stephanie brings out the absolute best in her. She is equipped to handle any situation that may arise and I would (and have!) trust her with my dog because I can tell she genuinely cares and will do everything in her power to make our furry friends comfortable, safe and happy.
Stephanie walks my large one year old puppy 2 times a week and we could not be happier with the experience and love she shows for all the dogs in her care. She’s reliable, always follows up with a recap of their time together including what they worked on and incredibly adorable and professional looking pictures. Stephanie has helped teach Marshall new tricks and reinforced his leash manners- he is completely in love with her! It is clear that she’s highly experienced in working with dogs of all ages, sizes and behaviors. We completely trust that every time Marshall is in her care he is safe and happy!

For me, it is important to care for your pet inside of their home and as close to their normal schedule as possible. I am sure they miss you terribly while you're away, but I try to keep the familiarity and comfort of their routine intact to make it easier!
Information Stephanie T. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has special behavioral or health concerns, I am happy to make their service exactly what they need rather than one-size-fits-all.
A typical day
I do not have a typical visit experience to describe, because to me it is most important to tailor the experience to your needs and the needs of your dog. Every household I visit has their own requirements and preferences, so let me know what an ideal service would look like for you!

Availability
I am a full-time graduate student, but I love to decompress by hanging out with pet friends! Currently, I am available Friday-Monday for walks and drop-ins for your furry companions. I can do longer check-ins up to 5 hours for dogs that need their quality human time, but I do not offer fully overnight stays at this time.
