Highlights
Pet care experience
Experience with senior and rescue dogs available!
I have experience of looking after senior dogs (approximately labrador size) with arthritis and other health issues affecting mobility, such as lumbosacral disease. We also dealt with three bouts of Vestibular Syndrome with the same dog. My experience includes administering drugs and dealing with the inevitable accidents, ensuring they don't struggle to feed as well as adjusting activity levels. I am also very familiar with the cognitive decline that affects older dogs, the disorientation and the pacing around. My husband and I have adopted rescue dogs from the UK and abroad for the past eight years. The youngest one was 5 years old and the oldest was 8, and she's now a very slow but very loving 17 year old. I have experience with looking after frightened, timid but also bossy adult dogs, but can help look after young dogs too. I am looking forward to meeting more dogs and help look after them.
Cat care experience

Stefania also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
Having my own pets, I know the difference that having a trusted person makes when it comes to looking after them, especially with popping in during the day.
Ratings and reviews
Stef is the ideal person to look after dogs. There is nothing that she wouldn't do to make sure they're safe and happy. She has great experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, both from her own dogs and having been a fosterer. She is very attuned to dogs' needs and shows them nothing but love and compassion.
