Safety, trust & environment

I follow all care instructions, administration of medicine schedules and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while doing my best to stay on their schedule at home that they are used to. My grandchildren sometimes visit to give extra love, but if your dog doesn’t get along with children, they won’t be present. Certified in CPR & Pet First Aid (08/2025) with verification badges in my photo gallery. I love building long-term relationships so your fur baby looks forward to coming back!

Information Steph M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any specific rules, schedules, routines, required medication, or training you’d like me to follow before booking so I can make sure your fur baby’s needs are met perfectly. I love meeting new pets, so I encourage meet & greets and will happily schedule one at a time that works for both of us! And if your pup has an Instagram page, I’d love to follow! I enjoy sharing fun updates and following the journeys of the fur babies I care for. 🙂

A typical day

Your fur baby (and home, if housesitting) will get plenty of love, attention, and fun all day! Depending on their needs, we can go for walks in nearby parks or around my neighborhood, or enjoy lots of playtime in my large, fenced backyard. If your pup loves to play, we can toss the ball, throw the frisbee, play soccer, or have a game of tug-of-war! I provide balls and frisbees for extra fun. Exercise, cuddles, and attention are always tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level. For safety, I cannot take dogs on walks if they are not loose leash-trained/pull hard, or require a shock collar. Every pet in my care leaves happy, safe, and feeling right at home!

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for animals my whole life—my father was a veterinarian, my mother a teacher—and I’ve looked after countless fur babies of all kinds. Pets are among the most precious parts of our lives. ❤️ I truly love caring for animals and making them feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and pay close attention to their routines, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, walks at the park, or cuddle time, I make sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for. I provide exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and loving attention tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level. I have the flexibility to care full-time for pets in my home or yours, with reliability and genuine love. If house sitting, I can also help with small household tasks so your home stays comfortable and maintained while you’re away. In Hawaiian, a pet caretaker is called a Kahu—which means guardian, protector, and steward of something cherished. This meaning really resonates with me and take that role seriously while caring for your fur baby, providing love, attention, and safety as if they were my own.💕 For pets boarding at my home, I provide a kennel and dog bed for convenience so you don’t have to transport yours, but you’re welcome to bring your own!
