Pet care experience

Experienced animal professional

I have had dogs since the day I was born and wouldn't want it any other way! Family and friends have relied on me to care for their pets for years, and they have been confident in my abilities as a former employee at a 24-hour emergency animal hospital. I'm experienced working with a variety of breeds and temperaments, including reactive dogs with behavioral challenges. I am well versed in force-free positive reinforcement methods. Professionally I work as an epidemiologist, so you can also be sure I am taking all health and safety precautions!

Safety, trust & environment

I do everything I can to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free! Being the owner of a reactive dog I understand how important it is to mantain a schedule, enforce training, and take safety precautions. I have a firm understanding of animal body language and knowledge of how to behave around dogs of all temperaments!

I highly recommend Stephanie as your pet-sitter! She has taken care of my two cats on multiple occasions, both for short and long durations, and has done a wonderful job every time! Stephanie is very reliable, and even watched my cats for over a week, never missing a visit. Not only did she stop in every day, but she made sure to spend time playing with my cats and giving them some love instead of just quickly popping in and out. She is also a great communicator and would reach out to me regularly to share a picture or to let me know about any concerns that came up. If you're looking for someone who will actually provide your pets with some comfort and love while you're gone, Stephanie is definitely your girl!

Stephanie is simply amazing. She has watched our 4 dogs and a cat. We came home to very happy, healthy animals. She slept with them, played with them, and did everything we asked her to do. She continually updated us with pictures which made us feel so much better, knowing they were having a great time. If you want the perfect dog sitter Stephanie is the one for you. I will definitely be using her again.

I have a lot of experience with reactive and anxious dogs who have behavioral challenges and am comfortable working with them. I have experience working with professional accredited trainers and employ the use of force-fee positive reinforcement when working with dogs. I have muzzle trained dogs and have a good foundation in dog body language.
