I treat the kitties with kindness, respect, and patience, and adhere to the time and care requests set by the client. I have experience keeping escape kitties indoors.

Information Stephanie F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat has special needs, requires any medication administration, is prone to scratching, biting, or hissing, or tries to be escape artist when the door is open.

A typical day

I will learn how the cats like to play and receive attention so I can better stimulate them mentally and physically. I will also brush them and give treats if suggested and provided by the client.

Kitty mom and cat lover

Pet care experience

Now with two adorable cats of my own, I grew up with 6 cats and have been a favorite cat aunt to previous roommates. I have been active on Rover on and off since 2018, mainly petsitting cats. Since being on Rover, I’ve cat-sat nearly every kind of cat. Friends, family, and over 25 previous cat clients have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their cats, with a number of repeat clients. I have experience administering medication with different methods and keeping indoor cats inside who think they’d like to be outdoor cats. As with some of the cats I’ve cat-sat, my newest kitty has been shy, jumpy, and a bit slower to warm up, so I have the experience and patience to interact with cats like her in a way they’re comfortable with.

Stephanie took excellent care of LemonLime. LemonLime really liked her and we did too!

Stephanie came to the rescue as a cat sitter for my sweet kitty (who we had never been away from) during a very stressful time in our lives. She was extremely kind, communicative, and helpful, and flexible with our rapidly changing schedule. Our kitty took to her immediately, which was amazing because he is usually likes to observe for awhile before deciding about people! She has a calm energy about her that he really responded to, and they were quick friends! Stephanie followed my rather comprehensive care instructions perfectly, and it was obvious how well cared for he was while we were away. It was so reassuring to know that things at home were well under control, and that our kitty now has a friend we can call next time we are away!

I have been extremely happy with the two-week daily check-ins for Milo, he LOVES Stephanie! The regular updates and photos Stephanie sent give me peace of mind while Ive been away. I highly recommend Stephanie's services to any cat owner in need of reliable and compassionate care.

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.
