Dependable Pet Lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a fellow pet lover who knows the struggle of finding someone you can trust to watch your baby when you're gone! I have had cats and dogs my whole life, as well as, I grew up with horses! I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs and am comfortable giving medications. I also am very active and enjoy taking doggies on long walks! And giving lots of love and snuggles of course! I also have experience with training, as I am a mental health therapist and my dog is currently a therapy dog that I often bring to work with me.

Wonderful experience. My old dog can have anxiety when not with us…Steph and her fiancé took extra special care of her. Sent me updates, pictures and videos. My dog had so much fun, she has been sleeping for the last 4 hours! She is one happy and tired dog! She is not used to having a huge backyard.

Steph was great, sent me pics and updates about my pup while I was away. My pup came home safe, healthy and happy.

Steph is easy to work with and clearly loves animals. She delivered her services as promised and I won’t hesitate to hire her again.

Steph and Ryan went above and beyond for our sweet girl and they loved her as if she were their own! I got consistent updates as well as pictures and I can confidently say I was never worried during our trip, not for one second! Our fur baby had another dog to play with, a backyard to run around in, she got to go for walks, soaked up all of the cuddles and snuggles she could and loved every second of it! The best part about Ryan and Steph is how kind, flexible and accommodating they are- My husband and I not only feel like our dog made some new friends, but we did as well! I highly recommend Steph and Ryan for anyone looking for a safe and fun environment for their own animal to stay in! If I could give them a 10 star review, I would!! Words cannot express how thankful we are to have had such a fantastic experience with Rover (especially with it being our first time we've used it/left our animal for this long) Huge thank you Steph/Ryan, you guys are the best and Skye misses you already!!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and being trustworthy is always my #1 priority. I always require a meet and greet prior to make sure we are a good fit and our dogs get along (if your pet is staying at my home). I am very knowledgeable about dog behavior and making sure I am always paying attention to how pets interact and that they are happy and healthy always. We also have a fenced in yard that is secured 100% of the time and dogs are always watched when they are outside.

Information Steph K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or wants that I can attend to! Your pet being well-taken care of and loved while you're away is my #1 priority!

A typical day

We are a very active family that loves to go on walks! If I have the pleasure of watching your dog, I would definitely take them on lots of walks and maybe explore any near by walking paths, if you're comfortable with it! I also love to give good belly rubs :)

I go into the office about 20 hours a week, but my schedule is very flexible. If your pet is staying at my house, my fiancé works completely remote, so your pet would very rarely ever be left alone.
