Availability
Pet care is a wonderful addition to my weekly routines! Walking dogs helps get my steps in and I especially love the longer walks. As a student, my Mondays are busy, but all other days are mostly free except for the late mornings.

About Stephanie L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I keep alarms set at home for when to feed my pets so everyone knows when it’s breakfast and dinner time! Three times a day I will take my dog out for 30-minute to an hour long walk. As a 75lbs husky, my dog loved to pull on the leash but I was able to slowly train him out of that habit. Now he walks beside me and makes walking around the neighborhood a breeze!
Information Stephanie L. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs, has a preference for walking locations, napping locations, eating times, medications, and any do’s or don’ts in the house (such as couches, beds or floor levels).
A typical day
I love to walk dogs around the neighborhood and give them plenty of time to sniff around to learn new smells. Although sometimes sniffing turns into eating whatever is in-front of them, I will either pull them away or distract the dog with a different stimulus. Also love playing with dogs and will be happy to play tug-of-war or fetch with them. Cuddles are always welcome!

Caring from dogs, lizards to birds
Pet care experience
I have taken care of pets since I was six years old, starting with a few fish. Then it developed into lizards, birds, hermit crabs and dogs. I love and care for all and make careful research to provide the best care.
Cat care experience
Stephanie also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Stephanie did a wonderful job taking care of our babies. Great communication and quick to respond. Our house and pets were in perfect condition when we got home. Highly recommend!!
Steph took such great care of my dogs and sent plenty of updates and pictures, thank you so much!!
Stephanie is an amazing pet sitter that has been taking care of my dogs for over 4 years. She’s flexible, caring and detail oriented with everything!! Stephanie has been able to help even with short notice for my dogs, and they always communicate reliably for questions and updates. Stephanie is the best pet caregiver you could ever ask for!
