Information Stefania V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in advance if your dog has any special needs or health issues. Also, if possible, I’d appreciate if you tell me about his/her personality, level of energy and behavior towards other people, dogs or other animals!

A typical day

I love long walks with as many “sniffing stops” as necessary. I also like to stimulate their minds by hiding treats for them and working on commands. I love taking them to creeks and trails in the woods , or to the dog park where they can socialize!

Dogs are my favorite people ❤️

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Stefanía and YES: dogs are my favorite people ❤️ I’ve lived with fur babies my entire life so it is fair to say that I have plenty of experience walking, bathing, grooming (nothing fancy), feeding, playing, and cuddling with dogs all sizes. My boyfriend and I have fostered dogs and have taken care of our friend’s dogs/cats while they’re out of town.

Stefania and her boyfriend were incredible sitters, and I mean that in earnest. They were able to offer overnight care for our dog after a last-minute cancellation, and they went above and beyond in making him feel part of their family. They're very active! They took our pup on multiple walks at dog parks and even hiking trails; after I picked him up, he had a bath and then fell right asleep. Happy dog, happy human.

Stefania is one of the most kind, patient, and loving dog handlers that you will ever meet! She refers to every dog she walks as her "babies" and treats them as such. When our dog started getting older Stefania was always careful, gentle, and extra patient with him. I absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a new caregiver for their fur babies.

Stefania is my childhood friend and I cannot emphasize enough the strong connection she has with animals, specially with dogs. She was raised in a household where dogs are an important part of the family so she has a lot of experience taking care of them. She’s very empathetic and loves making friends with any dog she sees so dogs on the streets follow her, and those of friends and family love hanging out with her the most. She treats all the dogs as if they were her own and she’s the favorite of all the dogs she gets to meet!!
