Experienced pet sitter/house sitter
Pet care experience
Hi there! The best way to kick this off is to say that I'm the daughter of a vet nurse. We had every pet imaginable growing up, and regularly rehabbed wild animals in our home to provide care over nights & weekends; critters people would find in their yard abandoned or injured. I specifically remember being in 3rd grade and helping to feed ducklings and a deer fawn! Fast forward to young adulthood, I worked locally with Bella’s House & Petsitting services for 2 years. SO...I love animals. I have direct experience with fresh & saltwater tanks, reptiles, cats, birds of all sizes, dogs of all sizes, and rodents/rabbits/ferrets. At home now, I have a 3yo Bernese Mountain Dog & 2yo Bernedoodle. I'd love to have more animals but we don't want to disrupt the adorable brotherhood. If I can pair my love for animals, and helping people, with helping to earn a few extra bucks for our family in my spare time, I feel like I could also be a trusted asset to other animal lovers in my community! Is that a win-win-win…? I lost count! I have a small service radius as I'd like to provide exceptional care & service to my immediate neighbors. That would allow me to be successful at both of my jobs, which is something I value greatly. I have a e-go pass for Desert Mountain, saving me from confusion or hassle at the gate and allowing me more time to spend with your fur-kids! I am happy to help with pets - feeding, walking when weather permits, light grooming, playing. I have experience with subcutaneous injections, too. I am a SUPER green thumb, so I'm happy to help care for your houseplants & get the mail as part of the service provided.
Reviews
Excellent job! She kept me up to date and took great care of my boys! Thank you!
Stephanie is our go to doh sitter. She takes great care with our dog and always keeps us well informed.
Great sitter, got a long with my puppy and he was happy 😊
Steohanie did an awesome job stopping in to check on, feed and play with our 2 cats while we were out of town. She was prompt and communicated daily updates to keep us informed. I highly recommend Steohanie for pet sitting.

I will care for your pets as if they were my own, and your property as if I was a curator. I act with utmost integrity. I’m raising 4 boys and work constantly to set a good example.
Information Stephanie K. would like to know about your pet
How does your pet react to strangers? Does your pet have any anxiety/abandonment issues? Any allergies? Are treats ok? What are your key training words/commands? Has your pet ever been aggressive towards other people or animals? Has your pet ever been through trauma? --no breed preferences--
A typical day
Clear trails and paths where thorns and sharp things won't be an issue! Depends on the homeowners location, but would be looking for a location with safety as a priority. Prefer streets and sidewalks, and our area offers many.
