Nice to meet you, I'm Stephanie and I love animals! I've had pets all my life; I currently have an old cat named Minnie whom I've had since 2005. I began petsitting on Rover in late 2024 because I love caring for pets and meeting fellow pet parents. I live in Santa Clara so if you are looking for an experienced and trusted petsitter in the South Bay, message me! 🤗 ✨ PET CARE ✨ I accept all kinds of pets (ex: birds, snakes, hamsters, etc). The majority of my clients have dogs and cats so that's what I will focus on: For 🐶: I offer dog walking (I love to get exercise so I am always happy to walk your pup) up to 3 times a day. I am comfortable with puppies, small dogs, and large dogs, but I am NOT comfortable with aggressive dogs. For 😺: Fellow cat parent here! I've had cats all my life and I love them so much! I have experience administering medication to cats (orally & IV). ✨ MY SERVICES ✨ Currently I offer Housesitting, Drop-in Visits, and Dogwalking services. I am NOT able to offer Boarding in my own home. I offer new clients 1 complimentary meet-n-greet (disclaimer as of March 2026: due to the gas crisis, I must be mindful of the amount I drive. I will do my best to accommodate a meet n greet only if I can make the logistics work. Another option is a video call). During our meet-n-greet we'd go over your pets' care instructions, a tour of your home, and make sure that we're both a good fit. I also ask my clients to type up care instructions and emergency contacts so that I can give your pets the optimal care. 👩‍💻 I work remotely and have the flexibility to housesit and petsit during the week. If this changes in the future, I will update my bio and availability in Rover accordingly. 🏙️ Cities I service: Santa Clara, San Jose, Sunnyvale, Milpitas, Saratoga, Los Gatos, Cupertino, Mountain View, Los Altos 💵 My rates in Rover are negotiable. I am always open to a conversation regarding the price; I want you to be happy working with me. 🗓️ My calendar is always up-to-date (trust me, I'm on this app a lot). If you would like to book me or ask questions, please message me right now! I have a tendency to respond very quickly. ✨ WHAT TO EXPECT FROM ME ✨ 🐕 Playtime and affection 🐈 Your pets will receive oodles of playtime, cuddles, and interactions with me throughout the day and night. 🚶‍♀️ Dog Walking 🚶‍♀️ If you have a dog that needs walking, good thing I love exercise! I give up to 3 walks per dog per day. 😺 Cat Care 😺 If you have a cat, message me! I have a 22-year old cat and am very comfortable with cats. 🏡 Housesitting 🏡 Most of my bookings are Housesitting requests and I often receive questions from first-time Rover users about what my housesitting services entail. I would be staying over at your house during the day and night to watch over your pets and provide all care necessary (including food, water, litter box, walking, playtime, medicine if applicable, etc). I will keep your home safe, organized, and tidy. I respect all house rules and clean up after myself. You will come home to a happy pet and a tidy home. 📸 Photos 📸 Expect photos everyday so you can see what your pets and I are up to! I tend to send photos before they're requested. 👩 About Stephanie 👩 Born and raised in the Bay Area. I speak English, Vietnamese, and Japanese. I work remotely in tech.
