Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Steph and I am a current senior Veterinary Nursing major at Wilson College. Most of our classes have hands-on training and scenarios which translate into real world veterinary skills. I have been in the field for about 6 years now, I started volunteering at a local SPCA and immediately fell in love and knew that I wanted to work with animals forever! During my time at Wilson I have completed courses such as Animal Disease & Nutrition, Anatomy & Physiology, Pharmacology, Parasitology, Radiology, Surgical Nursing and more! I have been able to worked in multiple animal care environments including veterinary hospitals, daycares, and shelters. Caring for animals and being able to help and care for them when other people can’t is truly my passion and what keeps me going in my field of work!
Reviews
Stephanie is exceptional with animals. She is so caring and lovable with our animals. Stephanie is very knowledgeable about animal care. We always feel very comfortable going away and leaving our animals in her care.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment complex that is animal friendly, I am a little OCD so my place is kept pretty tidy. I have a terrier/mix Cooper and a cat Reid who free roam the apartment at all times we have never had to crate either of them, but can if necessary(Also can separate cat if your pet isn’t cat friendly). Both are fed and cooper is walked relatively at the same times everyday, and are up to date on their exams & vaccinations (paperwork available). In other clients home I make it my priority to respect the wishes of the client. I understand everyone has their own way of doings things and that’s completely okay! I always keep my front door locked at home so I am very good at remembering to lock up after I leave.
