Reliable, Safe and Love Animals!
Pet care experience
Hello, My name is Estefania but I also go by Stef. I love animals and am excited to provide pet sitting and pet walking services during a time when so many are transitioning from remote to in-person work. As a pet owner with additional experience caring for cats and dogs, I know the value of knowing your loved pet is cared for and happy. I also love to get to know individual pets and best meet their needs. My priorities are pet safety, professional reliability and clear communication of special needs. I am also very respectful of clients' homes and requests. I am currently vaccinated, have reliable transportation, and a flexible schedule. Please do not hesitate to reach me should you have questions. Thanks! Stef
Reviews
Stef was amazing! She made sure to send lots of pictures and always gave me very thorough updates from each visit. She played with and cared for my cats very well; she even watered my plants and fed my beta fish! Stef also insisted upon wearing her mask in my home for each visit, which I thought was very respectful and responsible considering the Omicron surge that was happening while she was sitting. Overall a very sweet, communicative, and reliable pet sitter.
Thank you so much ??
Stef was wonderful with Goober and flexible with my schedule! I was super nervous having her walk my dog because he's pretty fearful of new people, but she gave him the space he needed to feel comfortable with her. I also loved the Rover card at the end and it definitely eased my worries while being out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to book her services again! :)
Stef is punctual, and reliable. She sends detailed update during the walk (how many times my pup peed/poop) and plenty of pics. Thanks stef, would definitely use again.

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I clearly communicate with clients about the pet and the pet's specific needs.I love meeting and gently introducing myself to pets. Drop-Ins: I will scoop the litterbox(es) and/or walk the pet and clean up after it, clean and refill water bowls and food supply. I will gently get to know the pet, engage and play. :) I will also administer any medication as requested and text a picture update. Walks: I will take the dog for a walk in a safe area, pick up after the dog all while taking into account any special requests. Pet Sitting (at client's home): I will be at the home the majority of the day (unless otherwise preferred) and overnight. I would take dog on 3 walks, feed and play with the pet, and just generally hang out with the pet between walks and playtime. I am also happy to bring in the mail, water plants and tidy up a bit during this time.
Information Stef P. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the following to make sure to ensure the pet's safety while you're away: - What current feeding routine is - If any medication needs to be administered along instructions - Emergency contact and vet information - Any behavioral issues of which I should be aware. - Any other info that would be important to know :)
A typical day
I definitely ask about their favorite toys and games and involve dog-specific physical activity. I love a few parks in the Alhambra/Monterey Park area with which I am familiar but safety is my number one priority so I would choose any walking areas preferred by client.
