Love all dogs
Pet care experience
I have been dog sitting and house sitting for family friends for about 8 years. I have stayed to take care of their house while also becoming good friends with their dogs. I can take your dog on a walk as often as you would like, and will follow all instructions given to me. I love dogs and have 3 dogs and 1 cat with my boyfriend. I would love to keep your dog company while you are away. I would also bring my boyfriend to accompany me with walks/visits or housesitting. I work from home, so I would be able to work at your home while still having fun with your dog. I'm available for visits and walks on the weekdays before 10:30AM and after 7:15PM.

Steph did a great job with our handful of a beagle. She sent me a completed Rover Card with a picture, a map and mileage of their walk, and a polite note for me for every walk (which was twice a day!). She went the extra mile carving out a slot that would get our beagle outside without risking accidents. Her energy was so relaxed that my usually hyper and jumping beagle calmly sniffed her at the meet and greet- I was pleasantly surprised!
Steph has done house and dog sitting for my dogs many times over the last 7+ years. Besides giving my pets the most tender loving care possible, she gives our family the most important emotion possible-- peace of mind. Most of our trips are planned but some were short notice and Steph always stepped up to get the job done. She is completely professional, punctual and is clearly worthy of our trust and confidence. I inherently trust her to get the job done every time. Most importantly, it's not just a job to her. She truly loves our animals and is excited to care for the dogs as if they are her very own. From one dog lover to many others out there, I give her my highest recommendation possible. Thanks, Bill
Steph is a godsend. She has helped me with my dogs for the past 8 years. Dependable, honest, and very loving to my pets. My old dog needed special attention, because she was old, with many ailments, and Steph was always great with her. I now have a 1.5 yr old that's FULL of energy, and Steph takes great care of her too.

Information Steph R. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any breed preferences, some of the breeds that I have cared for that aren't my own are German Shepherd, Beagle, Weimaraner, and Newfoundland. I'd like to know what their feeding schedule and bathroom schedule is, what they are allowed and not allowed to do, if they get along with other dogs or people, any medical issues they might have, what your dog likes and does not like, etc.
A typical day
I love playing fetch and going on hikes with dogs.
