I am a permanent resident of Mountain Home and a stay at home mom of a very active eight year-old boy. While he is at school I can keep myself in shape by caring for pets of all kinds! It’s something that I will thoroughly enjoy and I can contribute financially to my household. A win-win for me!

About Stephanie H.

Safety, trust & environment

I will do whatever is needed for your fur babies! Except anything I deem as abusive or hurtful of course. I was a postal carrier for 10 years and learned that dogs can be put down after two reported bites. That is why I believe it is our responsibility to protect them from feeling the need to bite. We absolutely must follow leash laws. It is the best way I know to protect our pets from an awful demise. It’s up to us to protect them. In fact, if a client asks me to do something that I think will put their pets in danger of biting someone I will have to decline. Making sure to keep all doors and gates secured it’s important. I always keep a travel pet water dish with me on walks because the heat around here can do in the healthiest of animals. I keep a list of toxic pants and chemicals to keep away from pets and know what signs of poisoning to watch out for.

Information Stephanie H. would like to know about your pet

I can provide for many types of special needs care so long as I have had the chance to gain you and your pets trust and do the care with you present for at least the first try or more if needed. Please inform me about any aggression, timidness or other sensitivities your pet might have. For example, my dog is sensitive about his sides being touched. He will yelp, but not bite and it is something that people need to be aware of because they can be confused by it.

A typical day

I enjoy walking dogs and if they like it I will even jog with them. I love taking them to parks that we can play fetch. I also loves cuddles and loves from dogs. Actually that’s my favorite.

Pet care experience

I have cared for all kinds of pets since I was a kid, cats, dogs, rabbits, horses, rats, gerbils, guinea pigs even a bird or two. I have cared for kittens, puppies, newborns, , pets giving birth, elderly pets, administering medicine and some training too, though I am not certified. I have experience with it all and no qualms with any of it. The thing that sets me apart from other pet caregivers is that I can pick up on patterns, ends signs that people otherwise won’t pick up on. I also notice personal preferences an animal has very easily.

I can’t recommend Stephanie enough as a dog walker! She has this natural, gentle way with animals—like each pup is a little star in her universe. My dog, Chico, lights up every time Stephanie arrives—his tail practically spins like a top! Stephanie pours her heart into every walk—she's caring, responsible, and absolutely wonderful with dogs. If you want a trusted, loving dog walker, Stephanie is your person! 🐶💫

We have relied on Stephanie for many years to care for our dog, and her consistency and professionalism have been exceptional. Every time we pick up our pup, he is happy, relaxed, and clearly well‑loved. Stephanie has earned our complete trust.

Stephanie has always been a lover of animals. They are her babies and treats them so. She has a wonderful connection to pets and that's why I'd recommend her anytime to look after mine or anyone else's fur babies.

Stephanie is a beautiful person full of love not only for those close to her but for all human beings. The same goes for animals; she loves her dog and cat and gives them all her love and care. She knows how to look after them, protect them and give them the attention they need. She is the same with other pets. When she has the opportunity to babysit dogs that belong to someone else, she gives them the same attention and care as if they were her own pets. Stephanie is definitely a responsible and loving pet caregiver.
