Pet care experience

I can't wait to meet your dog!

I love, love, love animals. I lost my 15 year old Fox Hound in January 2021. While I'm not quite ready to get another pet of my own, I'd love to be there for yours! I have the experience of being a dog owner, which includes the care necessary for a senior pup. I have also taken care of several other dogs over the years. I'm ready to treat your baby to the love and care they deserve while "on vacation." They'll be like family when in my care. I am a photographer, so you can expect photos and updates of your baby while you're away. ** I do kindly request that you have your pet's profile filled out so that I can have all pertinent information for their care. Thanks! **

Stefanie was a life saver for my mother in law. She was great with Oskar who can be quite high maintenance and a bit difficult to deal with. But tusks to Stefanie we were able to take my mother in law in a short 2 night trip without her constant worrying about her baby at home. We will definitely book Stefanie again.

This is the second time that Stefanie has house sit with our dog Jaxson. On both occasions, she did a wonderful job of taking care of our boy. I received a picture every day which was very much appreciated. I would highly recommend Stefanie for any pet sitting needs.

Stefanie provided house sitting services for our dog Jaxson from May 8-May 15. She did an excellent job, providing us with daily updates and photos. It is difficult for me to leave my baby, but we have certainly found someone in Stefanie that we can trust to take good care of Jaxson. She is highly recommended.

Stephanie gave our dog special care. Her home is ‘dog friendly’ and she spent a lot of one-on-one time with our ‘Jessie,’ taking her for walks and rides. She also was very flexible with some of our special needs. Definitely recommend Stephanie as a quality sitter for your pet.

Stephanie did a wonderful job sitting for our cat and home. She is dependable, conscientious, and provided plenty of tender loving care to Paisley. We highly recommend her for your pet and home care.

We recently relocated to the area and I feel so fortunate to have found Stefanie. Communication was excellent and I received several pictures even though we were only gone for the weekend! Our corgi Lucy instantly warmed up to Stefanie and her family, and I’m so happy to know we have a home away from home for her now. Next time we go on vacation, Lucy will enjoy going on HER vacation at Stefanie’s! Book with her if you are in the greater Knoxville area - she is worth the drive and every penny.

Schedule

I work remotely, so my schedule is VERY flexible. I can give them attention during the day, as opposed to only at night if I were working in an office. This allows me to spend all day with your pet & to give them the attention they need.

Stefanie can host up to 1 pet per night
I have watched dogs who have required me to administer medications. I would prefer to have the pill schedule in writing so I can ensure everything is done exactly as it should be. Any information you think I need to know about your pet would be greatly appreciated! ( Where they like to sleep, what time they eat, are they afraid of something in particular?)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
