Pet care experience

Dogs, cats, even horses!

I've been caring for animals since I was a kid. It’s always been a passion of mine! Over the years, I’ve puppy-sat, dog-sat (up to six dogs at once for one owner!), cat-sat, and even farm-sat a few times. I treat every animal like they're my own. My pets are truly my babies, and my friends lovingly call me “extra” when it comes to how much I dote on them. I even tried to save a baby mouse once, I really do care about every animal I meet! I work in education, which means I have summers, holidays, and Christmas breaks off. I rarely travel because I prefer to stay home with my fur children, so I’m usually available year-round. Availability: Summer (June–Early August): Available daily, any time School Year (Mid August–May): Monday–Friday, Before 6:30 AM & after 4 PM Saturday & Sunday: Usually available all day Holidays & School Breaks: Available all day Pet Care Details: Dogs: I don’t have a fenced yard, but I walk my two dogs on leashes every 2–4 hours for potty breaks. They’re crate trained, but your dog doesn’t need to be. I’m happy to take your pup(s) to the local dog park if they enjoy that, and I offer as much walking as they need! Cats: While I don’t board cats in my home, I offer drop-in visits. I can feed, brush, play, and snuggle with them, whatever makes them feel most comfortable.

Staci was the best. She watched our dog for 2 weeks and sent pictures regularly to check in. From the pictures, I could tell our dog was having a good time and loved playing with Staci’s dogs. Thank you Staci!

Staci was wonderful! We have one dog that is scared of his own shadow and thinks strangers are very scary. I didn’t think there’d be anyway he’d go outside. She must be the dog whisperer because the very first day she not only got him outside but he was coming up to her to be petted. She sent the pictures and video to prove it! I can’t thank her enough for taking the time to warm up and understand him. She was also very flexible when plans changed through out the week. Will definitely be using her in the future!

Staci is fantastic! Everything you'd want in a pet-sitter - very responsive, flexible about timing for drop ins, and dog walking, and a genuine animal lover. She sent adorable pictures of my pets during drop ins, and when I got home I could tell they had a good time and been in great hands :) I will definitely use Staci again to watch my animals and would recommend her to others in need of a pet-sitter.

Staci is phenomenal! I never have to worry when my doggos are in her care. I have three medium (45lbs +) sized dogs of varying breeds. One is a little more high maintenance than the others (see: crackhead), another is a nervous Nelly and the other is just a couch potato. She tends to each of their personalities and needs with great care and consideration. She is wonderful about keeping me updated with pics and general well-being texts. I’ve utilized her for drop-in care and overnights. Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

At this time I currently only board small animals once I meet them to approve they can get along with my two small dogs. While I am in your home I treat your animals, and house with the utmost care, and respect.

Pets

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We can play games, check out all the new smells in my neighborhood, explore the local dog park, and get all the cuddles laying around on the couch. For my cat friends, I can do drop ins to check on your fur babies. We can do whatever helps them feel safe, and at comfort while you’re away. I know how hard it is to leave your fur baby. So, I make sure your pet feels loved, and is well cared for so you can enjoy whatever it is you need to do with a peace of mind.

Let me know if your furbaby has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. Do they have anything certain they absolutely love, or despise? How about treats? Are they on any special diets?
