Shelter-trained dog lover!!
Pet care experience
Looking for a compassionate, enthusiastic sitter or walker who will show your dog plenty of attention, patience, and professional care? You've come to the right place! Having worked with sick dogs in a no-kill shelter setting where compassion and safety are a must, and having looked after dogs for many years, I can say with confidence that your dog will be in great hands with me. If your dog likes wide open spaces and lots of exercise, I'm happy to drive him or her to the nearest park or forest preserve for long walks. I'm good at adapting myself to each individual dog's needs. I currently have three cats, so I am used to caring for animals on a regular basis. I'm available every day except Tuesdays and Thursdays, and every night after 9 pm for overnights. My schedule is fairly flexible.
Reviews
Stephanie was great! Nietzsche once wrote: "To breed an animal that is entitled to make promises—surely that is the essence of the paradoxical task nature has set itself where human beings are concerned? Isn't that the real problem of human beings?" My doggo made me promise to get Stephanie as a dog sitter in the future.
Stephanie will be an excellent dog caretaker. She absolutely loves animals and will give your dog all the care it needs while you are away. She is very responsible, always on time and a reliable person that you can depend on. She is a determined college student who has a car and would be able to help you with a short notice. Her flexible schedule will allow her to work with your family around your pet’s needs. She will be the best doggie sitter and walker that you will ever meet!

Information Stephanie G. would like to know about your pet
Feel free to tell me as many things about your dog or to give me as many instructions as possible. The more I know about your dog, the better I can personalize my care for him or her. Let me know how often I should give out treats or which toys are their favorites. Let me know what I should or should not allow your dog to do. Tell me a funny story about your dog!—whatever helps me understand his or her needs and preferences.
A typical day
We can go on walks wherever you prefer, and as I mentioned above, I am willing to drive your dog out to the nearest large park or forest preserve if you'd like me to. Just tell me what your dog likes to do for fun, and I will do it—frisbee, fetch, you name it.
