Safety, trust & environment

Growing up with pets, I understand the peace of mind that comes with knowing that my pups felt safe and loved when we were away, and I am dedicated to providing that feeling of security to all of my clients. I love teaching dogs new tricks, but with yours, I will always encourage and enforce any training that is is already in place.

Information Steph G. would like to know about your pet

We'll typically start with a meet-and-greet with you present so that your pet can get familiar with me before I begin caring for them. At that time or prior to our visit, I'll generally ask questions pertaining to their care, routines, behaviors, and habits. I like to have a relatively comprehensive understanding of who they are so I know what to expect and look for while giving you peace of mind while you are away.

A typical day

During the day, your pet will get as much play time as they prefer and the weather will allow. I like to follow their lead in determining if/how they would like to play as well as taking cues from the pet parents to decide what level of activity they desire for their furry friend. Your pet will also receive as many pets and cuddles as they'd like. I love to play and give pets LOTS of love!

Pet care experience

About me: I have been on Maui for several years and love exploring, spending time in the ocean, and volunteering for local organizations (Maui Humane Society, PAC Whale Foundation, etc). I am currently freelancing with a couple of local non-profits; therefore, I have very flexible availability. What to expect: The amount of joy dogs bring me is undeniable. Whether on a walk, playing fetch, or exploring your neighborhood, when I am hanging out with your furry family member, we will be having a wonderful, loving time. Growing up with pets, I understand the peace of mind that comes with knowing that my pups felt safe and loved when we were away, and I am dedicated to providing that feeling of security to all of my clients. I love teaching dogs new tricks, but with yours, I will always encourage and enforce any training that is is already in place. I am grateful for your interest in my profile. It would be an honor to walk, play, or stay with your best friend!
