Information Stephanie H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog needs any special accommodations. I have experience working with rescue dogs that have their individual quirks that I take into account when caring for them.

A typical day

I am of full service to your pet’s needs. Lazy pup? No problem, movies on the couch it is. Active pup? No problem, walks around the block it is. Smart pup? No problem, games in the backyard it is. Small bladder pup? Potty break 5+ times a day it is. I am willing to fit your dog’s individual needs.

Pet care experience

My mini schnauzer of 15 years recently passed, so I would love to give other pups my attention and care. I take care of my neighbor’s golden retriever, my other neighbor’s Labrador when I would babysit their kids, and my old roommate’s pittbull mix.

Stephanie was great with our dog. She sent pics and gave updates which made us feel comfortable knowing our dog was in great hands.

Stephanie is amazing! She was very responsive and went out of her way to accommodate a tricky short-term need despite typically requiring more advance notice. She was professional, highly respectful, and provided excellent care. Her gentle and approachable nature made her a natural with our skittish dog. It's clear that she loves animals and is dedicated to their well-being. I highly recommend Stephanie for your next Rover booking!

Stephanie is such a patient and kind dog sitter! My dog is very shy and nervous around people so leaving town is always stressful for me. Stephanie came over for a meet and greet before my trip and her and Nari clicked quickly. When I was away for the weekend Stephanie sent regular updates and when I got home Nari was clearly well taken care of. I was so lucky to find a sitter like Stephanie and hope to use her again!

Stephanie is wonderful, she is very caring and compassionate. She loves all types of animals. She was very attentive to my senior dog with diabetes who needs shots daily. Highly recommend!

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.
