Pet care experience
South Bay petsitting pro! 🐶 😺
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. During our meet-n-greet we'll 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. ❓ What if I need to cancel? ❓ I have a generous One-Day cancelation policy. That means if you cancel before 24 hours from the start of the booking, you will receive a full refund, no questions asked. If you cancel within 24 hours of the start of the booking, you will receive a 50% refund. 👩 About Stephanie 👩 Born and raised in the Bay Area. I speak English, Vietnamese, and Japanese.

Pets
Safety, trust & environment
The majority of pets I meet warm up to me right away. For pets that need more time adjusting to me, I am patient with them. I'll let them sniff me, and give them space if they need it. They naturally warm up to me within a day. In addition to making sure food, water, and potty breaks are taken care of, I will be giving your pets playtime and affection, while keeping your home safe and tidy.
Ratings and reviews
Our kitty, Nebula, was very happy to have Stephanie as a sitter. Stephanie sent updates everyday with lots of pictures, and she made sure Nebula got plenty of treats and brushes. Stephanie is a great sitter!

Stephanie is the best sitter in town❤️

Stephanie is the best! She’s very attentive to what our pup needs and he’s always happy when she comes by.

Stephanie was amazing with Trackie! She was reliable, paid close attention to all the care instructions, and gave thoughtful updates that really put my mind at ease. It was clear she genuinely cared about Trackie, and she looked so happy and comfortable during her visits. This was my first time using Rover, and Stephanie made it such a great experience. I would rebook her in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!

Stephanie was a great drop-in sitter for our cats. She followed all my instructions and kept the place clean and tidy. She was quick to respond to any messages and always very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely book with her again.


Stephanie did such a wonderful job with our Lilo. She sent many pictures and updates. She also did a great job with taking care of the house from bringing in packages to taking care of laundry at the end of her stay. Thank you, Stephanie!!
