Puppy Fever
Pet care experience
Both of my dogs have passed away over the last few years, a Great Pyrenees Hound named Ron and a Pitbull named Lance. I miss those old men but I've turned cat lady and now have two young kitties. I don't feel that it's the right time for me to get another dog so pet sitting will help keep the puppy fever at bay. I volunteered at the Golden Valley Humane Society working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and absolutely loved it. I started out working on the adoption floor and then transitioned to working with the shy/fearful dogs getting ready for adoption. I have experience playing, walking, feeding, and training dogs of all different backgrounds and temperaments.
Reviews
Stephanie was great! She took time to get to know the dogs and the home before the reservation. Communication was good and Stephanie kept me informed of their condition while I was away. I would ask for Stephanie again the next time I am out of town.
Stephanie is always dependable and communicates so well. She is flexible and takes great care of our cats.
Stephanie was very professional, respectful and took really good care of Missy. She sent pictures as well as daily texts. I would recommend her to watch anyone's dogs.
Stephanie did a wonderful job caring for my two dogs over Memorial Day weekend. From the moment I initiated contact with Stephanie, she was prompt and professional in her responses. Stephanie agreed to meet my dogs prior to staying with them, and she was immediately comfortable with them. Stephanie also asked questions revealing her extensive dog-sitting experience. During the stay, Stephanie sent daily updates and pictures of my dogs. She left the house is great condition, too. I highly recommend Stephanie as a dog sitter.

I have two cats so your pup would be gated in the kitchen/laundry area. We'd go out through the garage for potty breaks and walks.

I work from home majority of the week and have a flexible schedule. I like to go on walks in my neighborhood and having your pup along would be a plus.
