Looking for furry friends
Pet care experience
I provide dog walking, drop in visits, and house sitting needs. I want you to feel comfortable in trusting me to take care of your pet. I have been a pet owner for 3 years and I occasionally walk friends’ dogs. I am most familiar with small to mid sized dogs as they are easier for me to control. I am very punctual and a strong communicator. I can be pretty flexible with dog walking needs. Recently I was a volunteer for a dog shelter in Thailand, helping with all the stray dogs and keeping them in healthy condition. I enjoy the outdoors and spending time outside. I especially like hiking through forests or woods and exploring new places. In my free time I like to read, catch up on Netflix, and maintain my travel blog.
Reviews
Where do I start??? My husband and I decided to go on a family vacation and needed someone to watch our two dogs. One of our dogs loves anyone and everyone, while our shelter dog has some anxiety issues stemming from past, abusive experiences. Stefanie provided the care, love, attentiveness, patience, and communication my dogs needed while we were away. She arrived early in the morning to feed the dogs, let them out multiple times for potty breaks, and took my one dog on walks around the block. Daily, I received updates and pictures on how the dogs were doing through the Rover app. As expected, my shelter dog did not want to go out and wanted to keep to himself. Stefanie gave him his space so that he could warm up to her. Ultimately, I can not express enough how grateful we are that Stefanie was able to care for our dogs while we were away!
I've known Stefanie for about seven years. We have worked together and we have also developed a close friendship. She is trustworthy, responsible, and organized. Stefanie always has a plan and is able to follow a schedule, meet deadlines, and provide care. She has had a cat for several years who she absolutely adores. She loves dogs but has never had the opportunity to adopt her own pooch! I highly recommend her as a dog-sitter. She will take good care of your furry friends.
Stefanie is a wonderful young lady who is very quiet and totally reliable. As a colleague and friend she is a delightfully dependable and knowledgable person, who is keen to share her strengths with others. As a practical and logical person, Stefanie is able to always give good advice. She is invaluable in times of chaos, as she is a calm and collected, and does not let trivial nonsense sway her from her course. I say this because as a much older person, the younger generation do not always have such focused ethics and values. As an independent young lady, Stefanie has many qualities of an old soul with a refreshing outlook on life. I wish her great success and will miss her here in Thailand. Kind regards
