A caring veterinary technician

Pet care experience

I have been a veterinary technician for 11 years. I am 31 years old and also have 3 dogs of my own. Not only would I care for your animals like my own, but I have the knowledge and skills to medicate, recognize an emergency, and know many life saving techniques if there is an emergency. I can care for any age animal from puppies to geriatric pets! I can spend time with them, feed and medicate, or exercise them as needed. I work full-time in a clinic so I'm only available for morning and evening visits around the typical workday, Monday through Friday. During late night visits or if for any reason I might question my safety, I may bring someone with me to the visit just to ensure the safety of myself and your pet. I can care for your other pets too! I am also experienced with cats, pocket pets, and large animals too! I love all kinds of animals and can't wait to spend time with yours!

Stephanie did an awesome job. She was reliable, courteous, professional, and gave awesome visit updates. She did exactly as asked, was timely with her visits, and provided great care to my pups. Two 100# dobermans can be pretty intimidating, but Stephanie readily gave them all the pets and love. Highly recommend having her watch your dog children :)!

I really appreciated the attention Stephanie gave my cats. It’s a relief to have someone to trust to take care of the cats. I highly recommend Stephanie.

She did an amazing job keeping our kitty happy, healthy, and socialized while we were gone. We loved the daily recaps with what happened and it was a great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Thank you so much Stephanie!!

Stephanie was able to accept a last minute booking to take care of my cat. She communicated well & went above & beyond our expectations, came over to meet my pet ahead of time and watered our plants. Wouldn’t hesitate to book her in the future!!

Safety, trust & environment

I am able to care for your pets as you do and prefer. I always leash dogs outside of a fenced area to ensure their safety. If you request late night visits, I may bring another person along to ensure the safety of myself and your pet.

Information Stephanie M. would like to know about your pet

I accept all breeds and types of dogs and other animals too! As a courtesy to my current clients, I would prefer to walk/drop in on animals that are up to date on core vaccines. If not up to date or if your pet has experienced any medical issues lately, please let me know! For boarding: I accept one family of pets at a time and all pets MUST be child friendly, as I have a 7 year old who is good with animals.

A typical day

Making sure your pet is physically and mentally stimulated while you are away is my top priority. If it's nice outside, we'll go on a long walk. During the winter months, I like to bring food puzzles along and play games with your pet to allow them to exercise their mind muscles!
