Information Stephanie H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs. I always appreciate printed/handwritten clear instructions of their meal time, foods, walking schedule and sleep. If you prefer your dog to be the only pet in the house, please let me know so I don’t overlap bookings. This will not affect the cost per day. I am also caring for my senior shitzu who is a current resident, he is a small and healthy, 13year old who sleeps on the couch all day and does not interact with other dogs.

A typical day

I like to walk dogs around the neighborhood and lounge with them at home. If you’re pet is active and outgoing, they can tag along on car rides, or the golf cart to downtown and sometimes, the beach.

Stephanie took great care of our Bo when we were out of town for two weeks. She made sure to keep us updated daily with pictures and info, letting us know how Bo was doing. We recommend and will call on her again!

Stephanie took great care of our two pups. She was responsive, proactive with pictures and communication, and was very capable when it came to following directions with two dogs. We can’t wait to book again when we need help.

Took great care of our little mocha man! We loved the photo updates and he’s absolutely loving his new chew toy! Would definitely recommend!

Stephanie was able to watch my dog last minute and really helped me out! Ripley loves staying with her and always comes back a happy pup!

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.
