House Sitting in Decatur

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I naturally connect with animals, even the shy or anxious ones, because I’m calm, patient, and pay attention to their body language. Whether it’s high-energy play or quiet companionship, I adjust to what they need. I have experience with: • Senior pets (slow walks, meds, joint care) • Giving oral medications and maintaining routines • Creating a low-stress, loving environment while you’re away More than just walking or feeding, I focus on building trust so your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. You’ll always get updates and honest communication from me, so you can fully relax. As a nursing student with an active lifestyle, pet care is a grounding and joyful part of my week. Walks with dogs keep me moving, and quiet time with cats helps relieve stress from my studies. I’m organized, reliable, and love incorporating feeding, playtime, and even litter box duties into my routine. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it genuinely helps me recharge and stay balanced. I care for pets like they’re my own, whether I’m in my home or yours. For house sitting, I keep routines consistent—feeding, walks, meds, and lots of love—while also respecting and maintaining your space. During walks or drop-ins, I focus on quality time: bathroom breaks, play, meals, and anything your pet needs to feel secure and seen. For cats, I clean litter boxes daily, monitor their behavior, and offer attention on their terms—whether that’s play, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I always leave things clean, calm, and exactly how you left them. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!

“Scar was amazing with my two kitties and stayed over a few nights with them. I have a super shy girl that Scar won over and gave lots of pets to, and an extra hyper kitten that they played with and didn’t mind her kitten antics. I received fantastic photos of my kitties that made me feel so much better about my trip. Would definitely rebook and recommend!”

“Stephanie is the absolute best. I trust her completely and am so grateful she is in our lives. I even had to drop a last-minute request for medications because Fauna had a procedure the DAY before I left town. I almost didn't leave on my trip but Stephanie is confident, reliable, and even ended up teaching me a few things about how to give meds. Forever grateful!!!”
