I recently have stepped away from my full time job to be able to focus more time investing into Rover. I appreciate you all greatly! Without you I wouldn’t be where I am standing currently. ☺️ I keep my calendar very up to date to accommodate what and where I can to my fullest capability for you and your little ones. If you have any questions or would like to make a plan please feel free to shoot me a message anytime! I will be more than happy to hear from you (I promise the pleasure is all mine!)

Safety, trust & environment

I have a whole pack at home myself. Did I mention that? Yup! Five in total to be exact. Ranging from all different breeds, the oldest is almost 13 and the youngest just turned 1. So keeping them occupied is definitely something we have adjusted and accommodated to. We have a whole fenced-in yard, a toy box that can't fit much left, walks are a very essential part of our daily life and activity, and we tend to rotate our pack in groups from going to breweries/wineries, to hikes and even events such as dog parks, farmers market and whatever else events tend to be happening at the time. If this is something you're interested in acclimating and a small dose over time, happy to bring them along with! Of course, the occasional cupcakes and cookies I make for my kids at home. Let me know if they have any allergies and I will be happy to bring a small bag over when I stop by! 🙂

Information Stephanie B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if they have any medications or allergies I need to be aware of. What they enjoy and dislike. How are they in certain environments and with new people/strangers. Any behaviors you may have any concerns with and if they enjoy a snuggle or two!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m Net. 🙂 I’m the go-to gal of my friends and family for watching their four-legged kid - and I love that reputation. I’m here to help ease those worries of last-minute changes to your everyday itinerary or lessen stress when being cross-country on travel - I get that because being there has done the same! And what is more of a bonus for me to make another pal? Seems like a win-win situation if you ask me. For as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated and compassionate when it comes to animals. They have always been one of my favorite things in this world. Growing up with birds, rabbits, cats, dogs, you name it - really helped that love grow and helped me to also learn how to be responsible, coordinate time management and even how to properly take care of them along the way at a young age. Fast-forward - I took the next step to wanting to know and learn more about them. So I signed myself up back in 2017 and took an online course to more knowledge and become a vet assistant where I later on finished my hours at a local vet hospital. I was taught valuable skills, such as patience in the field, restraint techniques, administering medication and the importance of detail, etc. I even have some background in doggy daycare! What can I say? I can’t get enough of these little guys. Learning everything from grooming and bathing techniques, to animal behavior of personalities and the ability to understand each animal’s needs and anxieties. Don’t forget the play! I’ll even put on a good jam for us too and break out in a dance party. Putting more experience under my belt in something that fills my soul and cup. I always say when you enjoy something you love it first, and it’s a job second. Hopefully, I’ll have the opportunity and chance to meet your dog, too! 🐶🤍

She is the absolutely the best! She is prompt, reliable, flexible, trustworthy, a wonderful communicator, responds right away (even on evenings and weekends) and is just wonderful with my dogs. I have three dogs, one is very nervous and the other is blind. She takes such good care of them and sends the cutest pictures. I feel so much better knowing that she is caring for them during the day!
