Pet care experience
Your pup's home away from home 🏡🤍
Hello! I'm Stephanie and I live in Sugarhouse/East Bench with my husband David and we love dogs. We are experienced dog owners/caretakers and are dog parents to Poppy, an energetic 2 year old coonhound.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Stephanie and her husband were great with our dog, Burton. They were in regular communication and we got lots of pictures of Burton having a good time. Highly recommend.
Our dog, Teddy, received excellent care - Stephanie and her family were very caring and detail oriented. He clearly enjoyed his time at their home. We appreciated the photos and updates.
Stephanie’s house is absolutely our dog’s favorite place to go and she is absolutely the only person we have truly trusted with him. Thanks so so much!
Wonderful! Stephanie looked after our dog Hugo for a full week and he was super happy! She kept in touch the whole time and I would definitely book again.
Thank you Stephanie! This was our dog’s first stay here with Stephanie & David and it takes her a minute to warm up. Judging from the updates and photos she seemed like she was on excellent hands the entire time. We all really appreciate it!
I felt completely at ease leaving Benny with Stephanie. She took the time to get to know him, understand his routine, and learn about his personality before his stay. I especially appreciated the meet-and-greet beforehand, which helped ease Benny's anxiety while I was away. Stephanie sent regular updates throughout his stay, and it was clear he was having a wonderful time. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him!

Schedule
I work from home so I'm available and flexible around your pet's schedule. I aim to keep your dog's schedule similar to their at home routine so that they have minimal disruptions while away from home.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My goal is to give pups a home away from home and a fun and safe environment. In our home, pets will have plenty of engaging play time and socialization with other pups. You can expect a lot of photos and updates throughout their stay and I like to keep pet parents updated on their pups.
Pets
A typical day
Dogs have on-demand access to potty breaks in our fenced yard and yard time any time they need. In general, dogs are let out first thing in the morning and fed according to their schedule at home. Dogs get potty breaks a minimum of every 2-4 hours (or more frequently if needed) and are not left unattended in our yard. I do try to incorporate at least 1 enrichment activity a day in addition to walks or play time, walks vary according to your pet's needs, weather and my availability.

- Prior to scheduling a meet and greet, I'll ask basic questions to screen for overall fit. If your pup sounds like a good fit, we proceed with a meet and greet. At the meet and greet, I’ll ask a variety of questions to ensure a comfortable stay for your pup. If you have any questions about my services, please reach out :) Meet and greets are a brief 15-30 minutes but I am thorough. I will ask questions about your dog's general temperament, energy levels, meal time behaviors, allergies, medications, treats, leash behaviors, crating, bed time routines, sleep, territorial behaviors, exercise abilities and anything that may be relevant according to your pet bio. However, if there is anything unique to your pet that I do not cover -- please let me know.
