I am known for being very thorough in cleaning up after myself, whether that's keeping your kitchen clean or cleaning up after dogs on a walk.

Information Stacie K. would like to know about your pet

I don't mind "jumpers" so long as they aren't biters/nippers while jumping. I do not have breed preferences, I can and will work with most any breed but I need to know ahead of time if there are any temperament problems or if your dog should not be brought into the dogpark. I also need to know if cats might scratch or bite with less "instigation" than normal.

A typical day

I'm very flexible on walks and like to let your dog tell me where they'd like to go! If you have a specific park you'd like them to visit, or know they like visiting, please let me know. Please make sure to book a walk if your dog needs a walk, and a drop in if you have a fenced yard we can remain in.

Pet care experience

(she/her/hers) I mean, who WOULDN'T adore those two orange boys? 🥰🥰 Chili and Chalupa were adopted from Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue in Denver, Colorado, in January 2023. They rule the house, and I can't wait to love your pet like I love them! I am often available for same day appointments within a 3 mile radius of Slingerlands. I am flexible with responsibilities as well- let me know if you want your space left a certain way (AC on, bathroom door closed, etc) and I'll make sure you have peace of mind about your home while you're out. I love taking photos of your pets! I often send lots of updates during walks and drop ins, from when I get there, to what we're doing, to one more before I go. **Please be aware of and respect my service radius and availability windows. My lower sitting fees are a result of a smaller service area and limited availability due to a separate work schedule. If you need a walk, please book a walk and not a drop in. Drop ins are for fenced in private yards, cat visits, and other similar situations.**

I had a wonderful experience with Stacie and would highly recommend her! Great attention to detail, awesome communication, and so caring with my kitties. There was an unexpected hiccup during the reservation (not Stacie’s fault) that she handled so well, which I very much appreciated. She really went above and beyond to make sure my kitties were cared for!

Stacie took wonderful care of Rain and Ogogo. She proactively tidied up the area, so I didn't come home to stray litter everywhere on the floor. She was also incredibly patient and spent quality time with them during every visit—playing with them and giving them treats. I loved getting all the cute photo updates. Even though my cats are usually very timid, they seemed to warm up to her very quickly. Highly recommend!

Stacie was awesome, and took incredible care of my cat while I was away! She ensured Nala received her food and medication on time and spent time with her each day.
