Pet care experience

Let’s walk in th sunshine together!

I’ve been taking care of my very own dog since I was nine years old I had a beagle and a dachshund in which I both used to care for I would feed them, walk them, go to the park and engage in activities, give baths when needed. I have also pet sat for my friend’s dogs or cats when needed. My passion is for animals. I have worked in a veterinary setting for over a year and I do have knowledge of animals my main priority and what I strive for is the care these animals will receive. I currently own a year 10 old dachshund who is the sweetest boy ever.! my goal and my passion is treating these animals, as if they are my own I am highly experienced with the dachshund breed being an owner of them for over 20yrs, I have knowledge with senior dog care. I have administered oral medication insulin, and any nutritional values. The owner may request.

Stephanie took wonderful care of my dog and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was reliable, attentive, and truly treated her like her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. Stephanie kept me updated and made sure all of her needs were met. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet caregiver on Rover.

Stephanie is someone I would trust without hesitation to care for any pet, whether it’s for a quick walk, an afternoon of play, or extended pet sitting. She brings a natural warmth, patience, and attentiveness that animals instinctively respond to, making them feel safe and comfortable in her presence. What truly sets Stephanie apart is her genuine love for animals. She doesn’t just “watch” pets—she actively engages with them, paying close attention to their individual personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether it’s ensuring a dog gets the right amount of exercise, providing companionship for pets that need extra attention, or maintaining routines that help them feel secure, she approaches every responsibility with care and intention. Beyond her connection with animals, Stephanie is also incredibly reliable, responsible, and communicative. She understands that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and she honors that trust by being dependable, detail-oriented, and respectful of each owner’s preferences and instructions. Her calm demeanor and thoughtful approach make her especially well-suited to handling pets of all temperaments, including those who may be shy, energetic, or require a little extra patience. Whether you need short-term help or long-term care, Stephanie consistently goes above and beyond to ensure pets are not only safe, but happy and well-cared for. Her kindness, integrity, and genuine passion for animal care make her an exceptional choice for anyone looking for dependable and loving pet support.

Stephanie cat sat for me numerous times over the years. She came and checked on him 3 times a day and stayed about 20 minutes each visit, sometimes longer, to make sure he was given attention and fed according to schedule. I always come home to a happy cat after a short vacation from my home. Love Steph so much!

Stephanie is a caring "mama" to her own Dachshund and shares a strong bond with animals. I can honestly say she loves her dog wholeheartedly and that same level of compassion extends to every animal she encounters. I have personally seen how attentive she can be to an animal's needs from ensuring they get proper exercise and nutrition to providing comfort and companionship. I would not hesitate to trust Stephanie with my own pet (a tuxedo cat xxooxx) if I needed to go away. You can feel confident that your fury family member will be in good hands with her :)

I have known Stephanie for over a decade and I implicitly trust her with my two cats, Stacy and Bo. Because she worked as a vet assistant, I actually started going to the clinic where she worked just so my cats could be in her care. I was honestly surprised by how calm my skittish cat, Stacy, remained during her visits because of Stephanie’s expert touch and presence. Seeing her with her own dog, Bo, who is a very loved and spoiled Dachshund (no relation to my cat Bo!), it’s clear why animals react so positively to her energy. He follows her everywhere. Stephanie is responsible, highly experienced, and has a natural gift for making even the most nervous pets feel safe. I couldn’t recommend her more.

Stephanie is truly an exceptional caregiver when it comes to animals. Her compassion, patience, and genuine love for them shine through in everything she does. Whether she’s tending to their basic needs or going the extra mile to ensure they feel safe and comforted, Stephanie treats every animal as if it were her own. Anyone who trusts their pets to Stephanie can feel confident knowing they are in loving, capable hands. Her dedication and kindness make a lasting impact, and the animals she cares for are truly lucky to have her.
