I work as a massage therapist and a substitute yoga teacher and I am currently in online college courses for a counseling degree so I have a somewhat flexible schedule. I am available during the day and the evenings. Dogs in my care would never be alone for more than 5-6 hours tops. A major commitment of mine is that animals are never left alone for too long because they can be anxious when their parents are away!

Information Stephanie M. would like to know about your pet

It is important to know of any aggression issues and medical issues. This can all be managed but definitely good to know! And of course it would be great to know how they interact with other animals and people (this is especially helpful for walks!).

A typical day

I love to keep a dog or cat engaged in the ways they like. I am physically active so I am totally up for play and walks if the pet/s enjoy it! And I am sure I love cuddle time as much as the pets I care for.

Lots of love and attention!

Pet care experience

I have always loved dogs and cats and well…all animals! I have always had my own rescues. I have cared for dogs in my home and others homes as well as check-ins and dog walks. I work a flexible schedule as a massage therapist and yoga teacher so your dog will never be left alone for too long. The main thing to know is your dog or cat will be spoiled with activity, love and attention! I am a dependable, mature and responsible animal caregiver.

Another excellent experience! We are always confident in her care for all of our animals and her communication is a stand out!

I can’t tell you how wonderful Stephenie was with our Cooper. He’s 10 and never stayed with anyone but family. Stephanie went out of her way to make him comfortable and happy. He especially loved the walks she took him on. It made me so happy to know he was being so well taken care of. I’m thrilled with my first experience with Rover and Stephanie.
