Premium pet&home-sitting services!

Pet care experience

*Unavailable for boarding. *Some services are unavailable to my Extended Service Area clients such as daily dog-walking and drop-in visits. * I request clients contact me AT LEAST 48 hours BEFORE your requested date. I will not service a pet or owner whom I have not met before for my safety. 5 days to a week is ideal! Pet-sitting was technically my first job! As a young girl (I began sitting at 11 I believe) I was the go-to for neighborhood and family friends in need of watching for their pets and home. I have always loved animals, and most animals love me right back, so it’s a no-brainer I am re-entering the pet-sitting business as a young adult. I have three pets of my own: One puppy, one senior dog and one cat. I have experience in sitting all household pets except for reptiles. Anyone who knows me or has let me work with their family and pets will tell you that I am a trustworthy individual with a knack for making animals feel comfortable and am able to keep a level head during emergencies. As a pet and home-owner myself, I understand the need for ensuring your pets and property are as well taken care of in your absence as they can possibly be! My services are all-in-one: Meaning they include every pet within your home, not just your dogs! The only pets I do not feel comfortable with due to lack of experience are reptiles. Current and former military families receive $5 off services! ​Proudly serving the greater Catawba County area and beyond! PRIMARY SERVICE COUNTIES: Alexander, Burke, Caldwell, Catawba, Iredell, Lincoln EXTENDED SERVICE COUNTIES: Cleveland, Gaston, Mecklenburg, Rutherford

she has done pet sitting the past. She is kind and pays attention to the animals that she is watching and making sure that there cage is cleaned, food in the bowls. She could play all day with animals that she is watching, she treats the animals like family members.

Stephanie is the person to go to if you want quality care for your animals. I have never known her to meet an animal she doesn't love, nor one who doesn't love her! She truly speaks their language and can exceed your expectations on caring for your animals!

Information Stephanie H. would like to know about your pet

I am not breed exclusive, I love all dogs! However, I do require all clients agree to an introductory meet-and-greet with your dog and you before I sit them. This is for your dog's comfort and my safety since I will be in their territory! I unfortunately do not however, sit dogs who are not UTD on their required shots, I have two dogs of my own and that rule is for their safety!

A typical day

Aside from their daily walking, dogs within my care also enjoy: - Dog Park Visits! The best way to tire out a pooch is the park, provided your dog displays no forms of aggression toward others, I take my clients to to Fairbook Optimist Dog Park for one hour! - Hiking Add-on! I love to hike, and love a dog that's up for a hike! I usually take my clients to South Mountain State Park, trail walks are average around 2 hours. This is an additional add-on charge to services ($20 one-time charge). - Obedience Training! If your dog is un-trained or a little rusty, we'll work on the basic obedience skills while you're away (trainer treat method)! - I also offer appointment services as well for an additional $10 per appointment. No need to reschedule vet, grooming, puppy classes, etc.!
