Active, reliable, patient pet lover
Pet care experience
I am a dog mom to a sweet and gentle red heeler mix that I’ve had for the last few years. I’ve been around dogs my whole life, have knowledge about training, keep a positive and structured approach, and love staying active with them! I’m a huge animal lover and have experience with dogs of every breed! Including pit bulls, labs, Weimaraners, terriers, Australian cattle dogs, terriers, the list goes on and on! I’m huge into hiking in the mountains with my dog, or getting out into nature as much as possible and would happily bring your pup along! Let me know what you need - drop in visits, walks throughout the day, etc - and you’ll return to a very happy pup! Message me to double check my schedule - it is not perfectly consistent but I will generally have weekends off
Reviews
Stefanie was just wonderful. I felt so good leaving our pets with her after our meet and greet, she made us feel very confident and asked great questions. She sent pictures daily and took great care of our cats and pup! Will definitely book again! The house was also spotless when we returned home.
Stefanie is the sweetest! My dogs adored her, and I could really tell that she cared for them, too. She did an excellent job walking my fur babies, even when they were being quite a handful. I’ll definitely be hiring her the next time I go out of town!!

I will always follow your lead on how you prefer your pet to be cared for! I seek clear expectations from pet owners so we’re always on the same page.
Information Stefanie A. would like to know about your pet
I don’t have any breed preferences, but prefer to know their temperament with other animals ahead of time. I’m happy to keep them either by themselves or socialized with other doggos depending on their needs/attitude, but it’s important to be able to predict their behavior ahead of time.
A typical day
I love nature! If there are trails around, I love to bring the dogs on hikes with me. When we’re just getting to know each other, we might stick to walks around the neighborhood, but once your pup and I know each other, we’ll get more time for playing on trails, in parks, or at the beach! love getting your dogs out and about and will bring your pup back tired and happy! Ask me about your other furry friends too! I’m a cat mom and have been my whole life, and also have previously cared for snakes and ferrets. I’m confident working with all animals, reptiles, etc. and am a very quick learner :) Happy to negotiate additional pet-sitting at your home while you are away! I’m eager to hang out with all the cute critters!
