Reliable Animal Lover Ready to Help
Pet care experience
I have been looking after animals since I was a child. Family, friends, neighbors and professionals with busy lives have entrusted me with their fur babies and I have developed long lasting relationships with all of them. I mainly have looked after dogs and cats but I also have had the pleasure of looking after my bearded dragon Dexter for the past 6 years :) I am active and am happy to walk and play with your dogs as much as you/they require. Having just relocated back to Morristown from the UK, where I was employed as a dog sitter/walker, I am excited to meet new friendly animal friends and I guarantee they will love our time together! I am currently working part-time and am very flexible when it comes to meeting you and your pups’ needs! I can also look after cats and reptiles if you need, but mainly my focus would be to look after dogs at any age. I would prefer to walk your dogs anytime you need and/or dog sit at your place (only because unfortunately at my place dogs are allowed for visits only..) Generally speaking I am very flexible and can meet all of your needs as required. Unfortunately my apartment building doesn’t allow pets full time . Of course they can come to visit though if needs be. I am more than happy to come to yours though to collect and/or sit. I am very active myself so will walk/run your pups as much as you/they like. I also will work in any type of weather. I am an early riser so would be happy to accommodate early morning walks as well.
Reviews
We are so appreciative of the care Stephanie gave our animals! She kept us informed of their routines and sent us pictures daily. This was the first time in years we were able to relax and know our pets were in good hands.
My fur baby loves Stephanie—I can’t even get the cute pictures she gets!
Only good things to say about Stephanie. Conscientious, reliable and sweet to our senior dog. We’ll be using her in the future.
Stephanie went above and beyond to make sure our Frenchie was happy, healthy, active, and cool despite the heat. She listened and asked follow up questions along the way. Regular updates and photos helped us enjoy our vacation worry-free.

Information Stephanie D. would like to know about your pet
All pertinent information is important to know about a dog ahead of time. Likes and dislikes a must. Any medication that they need to take of course is always important. Any phobias (because some dogs definitely have them) are good to know. I have looked after very young pups and older dogs. Personalities differ. It is so important to get to know All of each individual dogs' needs from their parents prior. The more you know about the dog you are looking after, the more success you will have in getting to know your new friend:)
A typical day
I love to take my dog buddies on walks. There are several parks nearby where I play games with them and run with them. I always make sure that their favorite toys are accessible for lots and lots of play time, whether it be tug of war or catch or just fun with squeakies. Mainly though I find out what my new friends like to do first and foremost and then tailor the activities to the individual dog. Just like us, they aren't all the same and have individual likes and dislikes! Half the fun is finding out what their likes are and running (sometimes quite literally) with them:)
