Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment with 2 cats so any pets that stay with me need to be familiar and friendly with cats. I do have a spare bedroom that I can use for separation purposes however prefer to be familiar and good around cats if I will be watching in my home. If house sitting I will be available to stay in your home and will send lots of pictures and updates along the way.

Information Stacey W. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has any issues with other dogs or social settings I would like to be made aware so I don’t put them in any dangerous or unsafe situations for your dog and others. Same goes for cats- knowing their personalities and what may make them nervous so I can make sure to avoid those situations so they will be comfortable and happy while I’m caring for them. :)

A typical day

Would love taking yours doggies to get pup cones or pup cups and take walks around sculpture park or greys lake. However little or much exercise that is needed for your loved ones I got you covered!

Pet care experience

I grew up always having cats and being a total cat lady, however after bringing home my first dog ever I realized how much I absolutely love and adore dogs! I have experience with having a dog of my own (sadly he went on to the rainbow bridge), plus caring for my sisters dog who I jokingly say is my part time dog. I also have experience with all the dogs I’ve gotten to meet through Rover. I would love to have a dog of my own again but I don’t have the proper time or space to have one right now, so I’m looking to get my fix by spending time with your dog! I’m currently available any time of day or night on weekends or after 5pm during the work week. Im very attentive to your pets needs and making sure they are comfortable this includes lots of outdoor time with nice walks, and giving them lots of love and attention(not to mention treats!). :)

Stacey is awesome!! I'll admit that I'm not the most timely communicator, but Stacey is! She She always confirmed with me before our scheduled meet and greets, she was confident with our dog that isn't the best with new people, she kept us up to date regarding how our three pups were doing, and sent some sweet pictures. Our pups were clearly content hanging out with her. We will definitely be asking her to stay again! Thank you, Stacey!
