Stephanie’s DogVacay

Specialties

You have to go away & you choose to board your best friend. The thought of boarding them at a kennel stresses both of you. So what now? You call me.

In the comfort of my home your dog will receive the individual attention they deserve. For the days you leave them with me, we will be buddies. We’ll go for long walks, have play dates with other dogs, go on small adventures, & relax. You’ll be away, so should they. Your dog will not be separated from others by a kennel, left alone at night, or plea for individual attention. Instead, they will be able to go outside as much as need, have access to the entire house as they please, and receive undivided attention from myself and other lucky pals. Not to mention I work on basic commands with them. Not too bad if you ask me!

History

Established in 2012.

I was away on vacation when, unfortunately, I lost my dog. Ever since I’ve known, I’ve been with an animal. Whether a dog, a cat, hamster, you name it — I probably owned at some point! Once I had lost my dog I wanted to work with one some way or another. At first I thought it would be a great idea to walk the neighborhood dogs. Then it occurred to me to dog sit them, and have them over days at a time. My first client, Boots, really made me realize that this was not a job at all and it was something I enjoyed. Get to hang out with a dog and do stuff with them? Yes, please! I would take my clients on adventures here and there, snapping photos of them whenever I could… and well, the rest is history.
