Availability
I work from office and home both. But my office is only three blocks away. and school is online and from home. so I’m almost always home unless so have to run an errand. My office is pet friendly and they are welcome there also. They will get the comforts of sound healing and beach time when they are at work with me. Minus my class time on zoom or a sound healing event. I am pretty flexible for pick up, drop off and meet n greets.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Two fenced yards, two dog beds, a couch and my bed. And your dog is welcome to them all. My backyard and garden has great energy as I do a lot of reiki out there with my plants. I have two runners and one 20ft lead in addition to two fenced yards But dogs are never left alone out there. If I have to leave they will be put in the room or in a crate depending on their level of training and trust.

Information Stephanie M. would like to know about your pet
Temperament, age and gender. Nala is high energy but we live with a senior small dog. So has learned to leave alone. She can play super rough or be very gentle. However, she is still recovering from some rescue trauma and does not like her hind end to be jumped on or to be humped. so I prefer dogs that do not hump or dominate.
A typical day
Running, swimming or hikes depending on needs. Guaranteed snuggles, fetch, gardening, beach time, dog parks, walks, massage, reiki, belly rubs, bones, and treats for tricks and good manners.

Pet care experience
As a massage therapist, trainer and health coach, and reiki master, I have learned a lot over the years about not only how to heal and help others but also how to apply those same principles to our furry friends. After all they are family too. They deserve the same holistic natural care as we do. And the recent passing of my 15 year old retriever shepherd mix was proof of that. He was diagnosed with arthritis and hip dysplasia at age six and lupus and hypothyroid at age 8. He should not have lived as long as he did, but with proper nutrition , exercise, and the use of alternative modalities Such as acupuncture, massage and reiki, he lived a very long, abundant life. I then passed on that knowledge and healing to a 14 year old rescue named Ava. She lived to be 17! Finally, after taking some time to heal again, i rescued my latest and embarked back on the puppy journey. She was 14 month old husky of pure energy, goof and intelligence. Now she’s a rehabilitated 2.5 year old. When dogs stay with me, they will be treated as my own. They are in a home on a bed, dog bed, or couch. They are in a yard, on a trail, or swimming- not in a cage with only 3 breaks a day. They live the Tahoe life (or the SF/Pacifica Beach life) with me and my semi new Rescue, Nala. Ive grown up with medium to large breeds and I am very passionate about keeping our gentle giants out of pain and spreading awareness against large breed discrimination. I relocated from Truckee to Pacifica In 2019 after running a pet care business up there for four years. I am still up in the Tahoe area once a month, but I serve the entire peninsula area. In other words, I'm pretty flexible, just message me. My prices are not set in stone and can be changed based on your specific situation and your pets needs. Lastly, I will be offering my canine massage and reiki services as both an in home service and at my own home and new office. Be well and wag on!

Stephanie gave the best care to our elderly dog. You won’t find anyone as attentive and caring with your pet. She is excellent!
