About: I have been raised with a pet by side. When I have born we had two brittany spaniels that have since passed on. In 8th grade, after they passed, we adopted another puppy brittany. A year later, we adopted another, to have our current pair of brittanys. So I have experience raising puppies as well. I play with them outdoors and indoors, brush them, clean up their poop, bath them, feed them, and train them. They also get taken on walks at the local forest preserve for stimulation. I have experience in caring for fish and snakes. Between dogs, I had my cat to keep me company. She is solely my cat, so she got the same attention as the dogs, plus I bought her toys, treats, litter, and food. Outside of my dogs I have pet sit goldens labs, goldendoodles, springer spaniels, and many other breeds. As in my headline, I don't think any animal is low maintenance. That just means the pet isn't getting the care it deserves. I had my cat at my dorm first semester, and I fed her breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I made sure to play with twice a day and we played birds on the tv for stimulation as well. I had a weekly schedule to brush her twice a week, and clean the litter box every Sunday and Wednesday. At home I would alternate playing with my dogs, training, and brushing them whenever possible. I can play indoors and outdoors. I can take the animal for walks. Clean up any potential messes, such as muddy dogs or if a cat has a hairball. I can accompany senior pets that need help eating. I can brush the animal. And feed them, and do basic training.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and how unique each one of them are. To this day it amazes me how a pet can be your best friend , even if they can’t respond. They are the best listeners and the best huggers! I am home all day so I can take care of your fur children all day! It’s just my husband my daughters and I. Must be house trained .I do take more than one dog at once so please let me know if you want your dog to just be the only one here!! I have a 5 year old fur baby, I’m unsure his breed since we got him from a shelter but he’s super friendly , Also have 3 daughters daughter that loves animals just like me! I have a fully fenced yard as well!

About: I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their family is away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and preferences, so I take the time to get to know what makes your pet feel most at ease. Whether your pet loves neighborhood walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby for companionship, I’m happy to tailor my visits to what they enjoy most. I’m also comfortable following detailed feeding and care routines and giving a little extra patience and attention to puppies or senior pets. Most importantly, I’ll care for your pet with the same kindness, attention, and respect I would want someone to give my own. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pet is safe, cared for, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, so my pet care availability is primarily in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. This makes me a great fit for after-work walks, evening drop-ins, dinner and feeding visits, playtime, and weekend care. On weekends, I have much more flexibility and can accommodate visits throughout the day depending on my schedule and your pet’s needs. I’ll always communicate my availability clearly before accepting a booking so we can make sure your pet’s normal routine can be maintained. When I commit to caring for your pet, I make their scheduled time a priority and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and affection during each visit. I currently provide pet care in your home, allowing your pet to stay in the environment where they already feel safest and most comfortable. I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I take both your pet’s safety and the security of your home seriously. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions regarding feeding, medications, walking routines, crate schedules, household rules, or any other special care your pet may need. I’ll also keep their space clean and comfortable, make sure doors, gates, crates, and leashes are secure, and keep you updated while you’re away. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet and home are being treated with care and respect.

“Stephanie took amazing care of my cat and was an overall pleasure to work with! She genuinely cares about each pet and pays attention to detail. She also does an incredible job communicating and keeping you updated on how your baby is doing during her stay and she sends lots of cute photos too! Your fur babies will be in excellent hands with her!”

I am passionate about providing loving, attentive care and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give pet owners peace of mind while they are away. i am currently working part time so i will have plenty of time to play with your fur baby’s! i’m available for over nights as well!

About: My experience working in a veterinary hospital over the years has given me valuable hands on experience caring for animals of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable handling pets, understanding their individual needs, and recognizing signs that something may be wrong. Whether caring for senior pets, or animals who need a little extra patience and attention, I believe every pet deserves compassionate, attentive care. I treat every animal as if they were my own! I have two pets of my own a large and small breed dog that I care for daily with feedings, making sure they get their daily activities in. They are older but still sharp as a rock. I also used to care for about 8-10 outdoor cats and 4 indoor cats before I moved to North Carolina. I was doing that for about 3 years and loved every second of it. My own pets get fed around the same time every evening, we go for walks over the weekend and during the week if they are up for it. I am very good at keeping them on a schedule, however some days are different and not always the same depending on work and what life decides to throw at me. I will do my best to keep your pets on a schedule if I must and I can take them for walks, play with them, even take naps with them!

About: Hi! I’m a work-from-home mom who loves animals and understands how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Because I work remotely, pets in my care receive plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing nearby, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to learn what makes your pet happy so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. You’ll receive regular photo updates and communication so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work from home so your baby will get non stop attention! Very flexible job and also schedule to run in and out to go potty, on a walk or play. I will love on your babies with everything I have! I am reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!
