Highlights
Pet care experience
🐈Cat Specialist & Senior Pet Care
I've been caring for cats for as long as I can remember and have spent the past few years as a professional pet sitter. My specialty is caring for cats and senior pets—especially those who thrive on routine, gentle handling, and steady companionship. I'm experienced in administering oral and injectable medications and comfortable supporting pets with medical or emotional needs. My beloved one-eyed senior cat, Stormy, lived to 17 and taught me the value of patience, observation, and compassionate care. Now I share my home with Sasha, a shy rescue who reminds me every day how trust, patience, and kindness help build strong bonds with animals. While cats are my specialty, I also have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I have the most hands-on walking experience with dogs 40 pounds and under and always provide calm, attentive care tailored to each pet's individual needs.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I provide dependable, detail-oriented care while respecting your home, privacy, and your pet's established routine. I carefully follow all instructions to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I care for every pet as if they were my own, providing patience, compassion, and individualized attention during every visit. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind, knowing your pet and home are in caring, trustworthy hands. For added reassurance, I carry my own pet sitter liability insurance in addition to the Rover Guarantee.
Ratings and reviews
Always reliable! We've booked many times with Steph and highly recommend her!
Steph provided responsible and compassionate care - highly recommend her for caring for your pet - it was great reading her enjoying each visit...
We've used Steph a few times now to watch our cats. She does an excellent job everytime, my cats are super comfortable with her!
Very reliable! Our kitties love her company ❤️
This was our second time booking Steph. She didn’t tell us that our dog had multiple accidents in the house. She also did a terrible job cleaning up the multiple stains. She also left one of the doors unlocked (which she also did the first time she petsat for us). Despite me telling her that our flight would land around 7 pm, she made dinner plans and had to leave the house early (even though her booking was from 6-8:30 pm). There were several other house things that were neglected when we came home that we had to fix after a long day of traveling. While the pets are fine, we are very disappointed in the lack of miscommunication and care of the house.
Steph is a great sitter, your pet will be well cared for and you will receive timely updates each day.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I specialize in drop-in visits and am available for morning visits between 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM and afternoon/evening visits between 3:30 PM and 10:00 PM. These time windows are ideal for pets who need breakfast, potty breaks, medications, dinner, playtime, or companionship while you're at work or away from home. I schedule visits carefully so each pet receives dependable, unhurried care while maintaining their normal routine.
