Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Dog Trainer & Cat Owner
I'm an experienced dog and cat owner and have 20+ years experience training service dogs and advising pet owners. I love building relationships with my clients and getting to know their furry family members! While caring for your pets I can also offer basic or advanced training services. I use positive reinforcement methods and my goal is always to be someone that your pets are excited to see walk in the door. I know that trusting your pet's care to someone else is never easy, so I provide updates after every visit that outline what care was done, what training goals we worked on and how your pet responded. Whether you're looking for basic care services or more in depth training, I'd love to talk with you about creating a customized program.

Safety, trust & environment
I aim to care for and love your pets as if they were my own. I require a meet-and-greet session before initial bookings so that I can ensure your furry family members have met me, and so I can get detailed instructions on their care needs and preferences. I aim to keep their schedule and care as close to what they're used to as possible to minimize disruptions in their routine.
Ratings and reviews
Stephanie is the best! My cat loves her so much! She takes care of every detail. I have no worries when I am away!
Stephanie has connected like no one else with my cat. And she takes such good care of her. I have no worries when I am away!
Another trip that I didn't have to worry about my cats. Stephanie did a great job again.
Stephanie took great care of my cats while I was away.
Callie was well taken care of once again! She got lots of love and, although happy to see me back, was not overly needy.
Steph did such a great job with my shy cat. Besides taking care of her food, water and litter box, she patiently earned Callie’s trust and bonded with her. I will be seeking her help in the future! Thank you, Steph, for taking care of Callie, and also for watering my plants!

Schedule
I've been fortunate enough to have some incredible career opportunities present themselves and so pet care is now something I do on the side as time allows. I am selective as to which clients I will take on so as not to over extend myself and ensure the best care is always provided for your furry family members. I do work full-time M-F in the Manheim area, so my availability will be limited during the daytime hours on those days. If doing an overnight stay during the week, your animal will need to be comfortable with being left alone for a full work day. My 11-year-old son occasionally accompanies me to care for pets that enjoy kids, as he loves helping me care for and play with them.
