Pet care experience

Experienced Vet Tech and Pet Sitter

I’ve worked with animals my entire adult life and I absolutely love it! I spent fourteen years working as a vet tech so I’m very experienced with all types of animals and their individual needs. I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for 16 years and I take a lot of pride in taking excellent care of the animals I am entrusted with on these jobs! I have two dogs of my own and I make sure to provide the same care for other animals that I would like for my own babies. I love taking dogs for long walks, exploring local parks, as well as providing whatever attention they may need at home. I’m happy to taylor their visits to whatever routine suits them best!

She was patient with our dog who was nervous about a schedule change and new people.

Steph did an incredible job with our dog. She went above and beyond by allowing us to bring our dog over before his overnight stay so that he could be more and more comfortable in her home. While our dog, Blu, stayed with her she sent us lots of updates and photos to ease our nervousness. She took great care of our senior pup and we will definitely continue to book with her when we travel.

Stephanie watched our pup at her house for the weekend. He came back good and tired. She even took him for a hike! She was very communicative, and sent lots of pictures and updates. We will definitely bring our pup back to her next time we can’t take him with us.

Awesome Steph is an amazing human being. I had to get a hold of her last minute and she saved me from coming home to a wild dog. Haha she’s the best I wish I could have her walk and be with Buckley every day
