Attentive Care with Yard
Pet care experience
For overnights and daycare services, I can provide quality care, including walks, snuggles, feeding, and giving medication (if needed). I'm fine with shedding, drooling, begging, and even sleeping on the bed. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Your dog(s) must be dog-friendly, as I share a home with my dog Missy and Mack. Both are dog friendly, but sometimes Missy a cranky senior and Mack wants to play. We look forward to caring for your fur family while you're away. We take at least two long walks a day, with possible hikes on weekends. Days will be filled with one-on-one time with your dog. At most, your dog will be alone for up to two hours (if I have plans that would require more time alone, I will approve with you first). Can't wait to meet your pooch! About this sitter: Dog lover with 10+ years experience pet sitting, dog walking, and taking care of other animals as if they were my own. Comfortable with dogs of any size, giving medication, and high maintenance food needs. Why I love dog sitting I've been an animal lover my entire life. I grew up with a Bichon Frise. For the last ten years I've had the pleasure of owning a wonderful lab/border collie mix. Beginning in college, I became a frequent pet sitter and dog walker. I worked in natural foods for animals for five years, where I learned a great deal about dog and cat health, food and care. I now work from home, so I have the flexibility to be around your dog all day. My experience administering medication I am experienced giving pills, even difficult cases. I am comfortable with medications.
Reviews
I'm not sure who had more fun. Me or Stokely. Stephanie is awesome,
Stephanie was fantastic and our pup had such a great time. She came home tired and happy - can't ask for much more than that. Stephanie was very communicative and responsive and sent daily updates and photos while I was away. Would definitely recommend her!
I recently left our JRT mix, Ted, in Stephanie’s care for the weekend, while I and my husband took an extended vacation. We had a wonderful experience. Stephanie is fantastic and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, dog loving, pet sitter. She’s dependable, passionate about dogs, and has been an experienced pet sitter for over 10 years. Ted returned to me happy, healthy and in good spirits. Thanks again Stephanie for taking such great care of our pooch. Love Ted, Jennifer, Scott
About Stephanie H.

Skills
Information Stephanie H. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know their normal routine so that I can replicate that to the best of my ability. Knowledge of any issues with aggression, anxiety, or food would be great to know. I would rather be over prepared than have the unexpected occur.
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks I bring my dog to Lincoln Park every morning and would be willing to do the same if your dog is comfortable in cars. Once a week we go on hikes, so that is also an option, especially if your dog needs more exercise. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Wherever your dog is comfortable. Whether they are used to sleeping on a human bed, one of the many dog beds throughout my apartment, a crate/kennel, or on their own bed, that works for me. Whatever will make your dog most comfortable. Time I'll spend with your dog I work from home, so I am used to being with my dog the majority of the day and would provide the same attention for your dog.
