Hi there! I’m Stacy and I love dogs! I've worked for Austin Pets Alive so I'm very familiar with. different temperaments and pup needs. I've also run a pet-sitting and dog walking business for several years, both here on Rover and independently. I'm experienced in handling dogs with a variety of both behavior and medical issues. One of my favorite sayings is "Dogs are the best people" :). They are pure little creatures and have such unique and sweet personalities! Their love is completely unconditional and they soak up love from you like a sponge. As a pet owner, I have cared for both puppies and elderly dogs, including those with special medical needs. My work with APA required in-depth dog training and handling techniques as well as experience in pup body language. I’ve also volunteered at other no-kill shelters and have ran my own business as a dog walker and pet-sitter in my previous home state. I know how hard it is to be away from your fur-baby, so I’m always sure to take and send lots of text and photo updates so you know that your pups are safe and happy. I also find that it helps to ease the anxiety that comes with leaving your dog with someone new. In addition to my experience with our canine companions, I am also skilled in the care of feline friends. I have owned several cats and have enjoyed their unique personalities and how they show their love in different ways. I would be happy to care for any cat, or any other pet you have, on Rover. I just can’t wait to meet you!
