🏡 Boarding Routine For boarding, I match your pet’s normal schedule—feeding times, walk times, medication, bedtime routines, and any special habits they rely on. Since I work from home, your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches and will get plenty of companionship, playtime, and supervision. 🐾 Walkies & Drop-Ins During the week, I'm available for morning and evening walkies & drop-ins. On weekends, my schedule is fully flexible to match your needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I keep a calm, low‑stress home with plenty of soft, cozy spots for pets to relax. I can separate pets for feeding if that’s part of their routine. The lawn is unfenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on‑leash to keep everyone safe. I make sure pets always have a calm, safe space to relax. Their comfort and safety come first. For Walkies & Drop-ins, I make sure your pet gets attention, potty breaks/walks, fresh water, and anything else they need to stay comfortable until you’re home.

Loving, Experienced Pet Care

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for animals my entire life—dogs, cats, bearded dragons, snakes, and just about every quirky pet a friend has trusted me with. I even interned at a veterinary office back in high school, which gave me early hands‑on experience with animal behavior and basic care. I provide individualized attention, plenty of playtime and cuddles, regular walkies for the pups, feeding, and medication administration when needed. As a naturally detail‑oriented person, I follow your care instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays consistent and comforting. Your pet will be in safe, attentive, loving hands every step of the way.

Stephanie is very responsible and caring. And helped a lot even beyond what I ask for. My cat Kaki was very happy and like her very much.

We had Stephanie watch our small dog, Keelie, for several hours while we visited the Aquarium in Tampa. She communicated well though Rover, asking questions about any special needs for our dog. She did a wonderful job, meeting us at the door and again asks if there were any special instructions for taking care of Keelie. She only had Keelie for about 3.5 hours. she took her on two walks and gave her some treats. Overall, we were very happy with her care, and she was fairly conveniently located in the Tampa area. I would definitely use her again.

I’m very happy for your care and service to watch Louie and Monty’s over night stay safe and healthy. We had worried free time on our trip

Stephanie is wonderful! She will treat your pet like family! She is kind, reliable and always communicative when making arrangements. She will make sure your pet gets daily walks as well. I highly recommend her!
