Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet like family, creating a space that feels comfortable and familiar in their home. I handle daily needs such as feeding, fresh water, and any medications, and provide exercise, playtime, and companionship to keep pets happy and healthy. I maintain a clean, safe environment while showering pets with love and attention. Communication is key: I keep owners updated with texts and photos so they always know their pets are in good hands. My goal is a seamless, stress-free experience that builds trust and ensures every pet receives reliable, compassionate care.

Any additional notes about their personality, favorite activities, or special needs would also be helpful!

A typical day

I start every day with the pets I care for by following a morning routine: feeding, fresh water, and a bit of exercise to burn off energy. Throughout the day, I adjust activities to match each pet’s personality and needs, including playtime with favorite toys, walks around the neighborhood, a game of fetch in the yard, or quiet cuddles for pets who need extra comfort. I also provide regular potty breaks, companionship, and gentle interaction to keep pets happy and healthy. Owners receive updates with photos so they can see that their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet’s day enjoyable, stress-free, and full of love while their owners are away.

Tail-Wagging Care You Can Trust

Pet care experience

I’ve always had a deep love for dogs, but what truly sets me apart is my experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I tailor each visit to meet their specific needs.

Stephanie was amazing with our dog, Finley! She sent lots of pictures and videos every time she went for a drop in visit and he looked so happy. Definitely recommend for all pet parents!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
