Pet care experience

Devoted and Loving Pet Caretaker

I grew up around cats, dogs and hamsters. We have had 2 boxers previously, one of which I have cared for through his late senior years, so I know what extra special care senior animals may need. I am comfortable diaper-changing, walking a their pace and administering medications. I have experience house-sitting and pet-sitting for various pets throughout my life — mostly cats and dogs. My son currently has a Leopard Gecko, so I have some insight into caged reptiles too, but am willing to learn more and care for them too, if needed.

Dog Walking • Sep 10, 2026

Stephanie has been fantastic with our dog Brody, who’s 85 lbs and full of personality. Brody took to her right away, and she handled him with total confidence and ease. It’s clear she understands dogs and knows how to work with larger breeds. We really appreciate her reliability, calm demeanor, and the great care she gives him. Highly recommended.

Stephanie and family were the best first Rover experience for Georgie and me. I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby for our first night apart. I really appreciated the ease of drop off and pick up time and friendly first meeting; loved the pictures of the boxers playing and having so much fun!! Highly recommend Stephanie and will absolutely use her again

Our dog had a wonderful week with Stephanie and her family as we were gone on a vacation. Stephanie was super easy to communicate with, gave us regular updates, took very good care of our dog, we were thrilled with everything. Will definitely reach out to her again the next time.

Zoey's experience with Stephanie was fantastic. From booking, during Zoey's stay, through pickup, Stephanie's communication was prompt and clear. We received daily updates consistently. Our pup was walked regularly and fully integrated as a member of the family. I will not hesitate to reach out to Stephanie in the future, and I would recommend her to anyone in need of care.

I dropped my Irish Doodle off on my way to work and Stephanie and her little girl greeted her with open arms and big smiles. Rosie has a habit of making herself right at home where ever she goes. I warned them that she likes taking naps on the couch or a bed. Stephanie smiled and said, no problem. When I picked her up that evening she was happy and tired, looked like she had a good day and made new friends. I have already rebooked her for 2 days this week. Stephanie was kind, and responsive to any questions and seemed to enjoy hosting my dog.

A typical day

A typical day will with me would be hanging out at our house with my toddler. We have a fenced in yard for quick potty breaks, but we love going for walks around the neighborhood. My older kids also love playing with the dogs I help board to get their energy out. We will provide lots of pets and snuggles.
