Safety, trust & environment

We have 2 dogs and 3 cats, and all of them are very friendly and love people and other animals. Our dogs are trained to not go outside until we give them a command to do so. We are also careful when letting out clients' dogs outside, making sure that we have them on a leash. We also carefully monitor cats so that they don't sneak out.

Information Stephanie M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special characteristics or requirements of your pet. I would like to know if your dog is reactive while on a leash, for example.

A typical day

I like to play fetch with dogs. My favorite places to take my dogs on walks are parks and trails. I love playing with cats with a feather wand. They always seem to love it.

Pet care experience

I am a reliable and caring pet enthusiast. I work with my husband, Dan, on Rover and together we provide excellent care for our clients. We have both walked taken care of dogs and cats for decades. We both have have skills in training and caring for dogs of all ages. We have always had cats and dogs in our life, and I have also had rabbits. We are experienced in all areas of pet care, including administering medicine. I have been involved in cat rescue since I was a kid. For years I was known as the neighborhood cat lady. I would take in abandoned kittens and take care of them until I could find homes for them. I would also get care for strays and find homes for them. I've also provided transportation and a foster home for cats while working with a rescue agency. I work a flexible part time schedule. I have plenty of time and flexibility for scheduling pets care. I am usually available at short notice. We feed our 2 dogs and our cat very healthy food and a balanced diet. I am experienced with dog training, and with first aid procedures.
