Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, responsible and adventurous
I have almost always had a pet throughout my life. Cats mainly but in more recent years I have been caring for both dogs and cats both through private house sitting (friends & family) and through the Trusted Housesitters app (Happy to share my reviews from there). I work remotely so I am often in the home a lot so that animals will get a lot of attention! Lots of cuddles and play time! I am very active so I love taking dogs for walks and hikes (depending on what the dog likes and is able to do). I am not super strong though, so I will say that if you have a large dog that isn't leash trained please don't request me (I've had an incident with a larger dog that wasn't great on leash and I just wasn't strong enough to control her). As a previous long time pet owner I know how tough it can be to put trust in another person to love your animals as much as you do. I like to ensure I'm giving the pet as much attention, love and care as their owners would. And also provide reassurance and lots of updates to the pet owners while they are away.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I do not have my own home (I travel and house sit full time) so I am only able to take care of your pet at your home. I will take great care of your pets, home, and plants if needed! You'll return home to a nice clean home.
Ratings and reviews
Stephanie was looking after our two cats and our apartment for around 2.5 weeks and we couldn't be happier! We don't like leaving our cats when we're going on longer trips so it was amazing to know that someone was with them all the time :) When we came back the cats were happy and the apartment was in better condition than we left it in ;) Communication with Stephanie was great before our trip and while we were away. We would be more than happy to always leave our cats with her :)
Steph stayed at our home for 2 weeks while my daughter and I travelled Vietnam. With limited communication on our trip it was so wonderful to see the updates on how things were going at home. She sent us photos of both our cat and our dog enjoying time with her. She took our dog for outings. And we came home to a clean and tidy home after a long travel. I would highly recommend Steph as she is communicative, attentive and just all round a pleasant person!
If you are looking for a pet sitter, then look no further! Steph is truly fantastic, and even though our pets would probably (definitely 😂) be considered difficult, she handled them all with ease. It's tough to trust someone with the care of your precious pets, but Steph is the kind of trustworthy and caring person that made it easy to fully enjoy our trip away, knowing our fur babies were in the best of hands. Hire her now!

Schedule
I am self employed and work remotely so my schedule is very flexible to accommodate pet care. If I am house sitting, the pets get extra attention as I can give them attention while working and on my breaks. :)
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsDogs over 1 year oldStephanie can host up to 1 pet per night
- Please let me know if the pet needs any medications. At this time I am only comfortable giving medications that are easy for them to eat. Giving injections is beyond my comfort zone and experience.
