Expert Belly Rubs, Zero Stress

I grew up in a house filled with pets of all shapes and sizes, and caring for animals has always felt like second nature. After losing my heart dog of 12 years, I’m not ready to adopt again, but I have plenty of love, patience, and care to give to your furry family member. Because of him and the many pets I’ve cared for over the years, I bring a calm, attentive, and compassionate approach to every animal I meet. I have hands-on experience with: • Senior dogs who need extra patience, slow walks, and gentle routines • Puppies who are still learning the world • Injured or recovering pets (both dogs and cats) who need careful monitoring, timely medication, and attentive care I welcome one dog at a time for boarding (or two from the same family) so your pup gets focused attention and a peaceful environment. While I don’t have a yard, I live in a very walkable, dog-friendly neighborhood, and we’ll enjoy plenty of outdoor time with safe, enriching walks. Your pup will receive the same love, comfort, and respect I gave my own for 12 wonderful years. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member.

Stephanie was a perfect sitter for our dog. She arrived on time, kept us well informed and the dog was clearly happy. We would definitely use Stephanie again!

House Sitting • Dec 29, 2025

We had Steph house/pet sit for our senior dog and cat during the holidays. Genuinely cannot recommend her highly enough, Steph was extremely communicative, kind, and accommodating to our pets. Having a senior dog with separation anxiety has given me some separation anxiety of my own, and Steph made me feel so at ease with tons of photos and updates. On top of all that, our place was spotless when we got home and it’s clear Steph took great care of our space. She’s the best!!!

I can’t speak highly enough of Steph. Seeing her take care of her own dog is beyond proof that she could take care of any pet. She always goes above and beyond, there’s nothing she can’t handle and nothing she wouldn’t do to care for animals. I’d trust her with my life as well as my fur babies’ lives. She’s been animal sitting for so long that I’ve known her it’s like a skill she’s cultivated she’s so good at it and so trustworthy and cares so much her heart is huge she really goes the extra mile to make sure the animals feel safe and secure and protected and well cared for while their parents are away. Steph is literally the best in every way.

Steph is the best! I trust her more than anyone when it comes to my dog Jolene. She treats her with so much care and attention and is first to notice things I may have missed. Steph is a clear communicator and a dog whisperer, and has also reassured me on multiple occasions when I had any concerns or worries about Jolene as a new puppy-parent. Our dog gets so excited to see Steph and it’s such a relief to know she will always have a good time when she’s with her. Highly recommend Steph for her reliability and loving care to all animals <3

Schedule

I work from home with a flexible schedule so have plenty of time to lavish on your pup! Morning walks are already a part of my day - I know the best routes to make new doggy friends (or avoid them if your dog prefers their privacy).

Safety, trust & environment

I'm able to board your dog at mine, or come to yours. My place is small but comfortable. Furniture and bed are fully on the menu for your pup (unless that breaks your rules). No yard, but I have a balcony for them to soak in the rays. The neighborhood is very walkable and dog-friendly.

A typical day

Whether your pup prefers a leisurely stroll or a hike up Runyon, fetch at the park or lazing in the sun, I am more than happy to accommodate. They can also expect lots of belly rubs and head scratches.
