“We couldn’t be more grateful for Stefanie! She has been a true life-saver, especially after we had our baby and needed extra help. Knowing we could count on her to take care of our dog, Astro, gave us such peace of mind during a busy and exhausting time. Astro absolutely loves his walks with her, and it’s clear Stefanie treats him like her own. She’s always on time, incredibly professional, and so caring. We feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely with Astro. Stefanie truly goes above and beyond, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!”
