“Stephanie was very patient with our difficult pup who has a lot of anxiety issues. She let us know when there was a problem and gave detailed updates. I would trust her with my dogs again.”


About: I’m new to Rover but not new to caring for pets! I’ve grown up around animals and have experience walking, feeding, and playing with dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. Friends and family often trust me to care for their pets when they’re away, and I treat each one like my own. I’m dependable, gentle, and excited to build lasting connections with both pets and their people.the Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work full-time and take some classes, but I manage my schedule well and always make time for animals. I’m available for pet care several days in a row and can accommodate overnight stays as well. Whether it’s quick check-ins, feeding, playtime, or just keeping a pet company, I make sure each visit is focused and meaningful. Spending time with pets is something I genuinely enjoy and find relaxing. I don’t offer care in my own home, but when I’m in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all routines and instructions closely to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I respect the space, keep things clean, and give pets lots of attention—whether that’s playtime, feeding, walks, or just quiet companionship. My goal is to keep things as stress-free and consistent as possible while their owners are away.

“Debbie is great! I’ve used her for boarding at her house, and also trust her for walks and drop in visits while I’m away or at work. She always sends me updates and photos on how well penny is doing and I’m confident Debbie treats her just as one of her own family.”

Although, I have more than enough time in the evenings and weekends to look after you pets. When taking care of others dogs for them, I normally go and feed and water their dogs at the time of their normal feeding and go walk them and stop in to play for a while about 3-4 times a day. I have also stayed in home with pets overnight at their home if needed as well.

About: I’ve taken care of pets basically my entire life, there wasn’t a time in my life where my family didn’t have a dog or cat. To me animals are just like family! I’m not currently working for anyone else, so all my time and attention will be going into your pets! At this point I my life, taking care of animals is just second nature to me. I believe that no two pets are the same, every animal has different needs and i strive to take care of each animal the way that works for them.

Mckenzie P.
“McKenzie loves dogs. Her dog, Shadow, is a rescue through G.R.I.N. She (and the dog) have been through two years of obedience training. McKenzie is kind, caring and responsible. McKenzie is also very strong and will be able to handle any size dog. You can depend on McKenzie to treat your dog lovingly, firmly and in the same manner you would care for your dog. I highly recommend.”


Mikenzie B.
“Kenzie does an excellent job with our three dogs when we are gone on vacation. We have one dog who is very shy and timid and we were unsure how she would do without a family member around but Kenzie was kind and patient creating a great bond with her for the weeks we were gone. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, compassionate and thorough job!!”
