Spunky, playful gal for pet sitting
Pet care experience
Bearded dragons, bunnies, horses, and of course, the standard cats and dogs have always drawn my attention since I was a young girl. I found purpose and contentment in taking care of animals. There's nothing better than the love of an animal, who you share nothing in common with, other than your love for each other.
Reviews
Stephanie did a great job for us while we were away on vacation. She met with us 2 times prior to us leaving. Our dog was a tad nervous but she handled it well. After a day or two they were friends. We felt comfortable with leaving her in charge of our loved pets. She messaged us with updates and pictures while we were away. She made sure our chickens and goats were feed too. Can’t forget about the Guinea pig, fish and snail. She is very capable of handling anyone’s needs! We would recommend and hire again!
Stephanie was absolutely amazing! She took so much care with our dogs. I was initially worried because we have an anxious dog but he did amazing with her! I would definitely rebook her and recommend her to everyone!!
Stephanie did a great job in a difficult house to handle. Thanks. I'll definitely track out when we need someone again.
Stephanie went above and beyond…taking in my mail after I forgot to have it held and keeping us updated on power losses after a recent storm. We are so pleased with the service that she provided. I returned to happy cats and super clean litter boxes. Thanks so much!

I have two wonderful dogs who I worked with to crate train, socialize with other animals, and taught basic commands. I'm a huge proponent of high value rewards when it comes to training, and always try to stay away from scolding pets. They can't understand English anyway! I like to use various types of enrichment, especially with working dog breeds to help curb their high energy and keep them on a routine, so they know when it's playtime and when it is not.
Information Stephanie M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, behavioral issues, allergies, or even if your dog has a favorite snack that I can provide to make their time with me extra special.
A typical day
I prefer to stimulate dogs mentally and physically. It's important that they work both their minds and bodies to keep them happy and healthy! Snuffle mats, engaging treat dispensers, and trick training are some of my favorite activities to keep my dogs engaged.
