I am keen to operate within the parameters and routines you've established inside and outside your home, in order to maintain continuity for your pet. This includes checking in with you for specific command words, encouraged and discouraged behaviours and their corresponding rewards/corrections, social situations to work on or avoid, favourite routes, etc. Personally, my pet cat receives as much attention as I can give him. He is highly affectionate, so is usually parked on my lap or somewhere nearby. I used treats/positive reinforcement to train him to shake a paw and sit down. My great fear for my little guy, and for all pets, really, is that he is bored, understimulated, or lonely. Because of this, I pay special attention to making sure that he is being physically and mentally stimulated in addition to affection. That means exercise and puzzles! I love to find simple games whether we're outside or inside - find-the-thing, makeshift tunnels to run through (if you're brave), seeking out tiny forest creatures to discover, etc. I'm always looking for new brain games for dogs, so if you have a favourite, let me know!
Información que a Stephanie M. le gustaría saber sobre tu mascota
I need to know: 1. Whether your dog has a history of aggression (and why) OR a history of being attacked/abused? If yes, what precautions would I need to take? 2. Any medical issues and their treatments, including medication/exercises/specific toileting schedule, etc. Veterinary information for emergencies. 3. Their favourite treat! 4. Their favourite toy!
Un día normal
We will play fetch! We will spend lots of time outside exploring, ideally in the forest or on a trail. We can go swimming if they like, or meet up with their neighbourhood pals at the dog run. We will also have meals on time and keep the sleeping and toileting routines as consistent as can be. Oh, and we will nap as needed - downtime is just as important as playtime, after all.

Experiencia en el cuidado de mascotas
What sets me apart? I am confident with large dogs, including farm and guard dogs! I discovered a love for big dogs when my mum adopted a hound mix who grew to be a 120lb wrecking ball of dopey energy. I've had a soft spot for the big ones ever since, and take particular pleasure in befriending them. I believe communication between human and dog is critical. A person's body language and tone of voice can say more to a dog than words ever could. That means I physically get down onto their level for affection, I use positive reinforcement consistently, I talk with them throughout walks, and I keep an eye on their body language as well for signs of happiness, fear, apprehension, etc. I'm confident walking on city streets, in forests/on trails, and in off-leash zones. I just need to know what your pup is most comfortable with and we'll go from there!
Reseñas
Stephanie was great! I have a big dog full of beans and she seemed to have no issue handling him. Stephanie was very flexible with schedule changes, she was always on time, kept in communication and kept me updated. If I hadn’t moved, I would keep Stephanie as my dog walker! She really helped keep my boy tired and happy! I would recommend her to anyone!
Stephanie was a loving, gentle and diligent caregiver for my geriatric lab Cruiser. Cruiser would “run” (she struggled to move fast) to Steph whenever she saw her, and Steph had the softest approach with Cruz. Cruiser had many special needs, dealing with both medication and incontinence, and everything was looked after and kept in order whenever Stephanie looked after a Cruz. Steph was always on time, communicative and all around responsible. It can sometimes be difficult finding someone who feels safe and trustworthy, and if she was still in my jurisdiction, she would be my go to person for pet care. Nothing but great experiences and confidence with leaving my fur babies n Steph’s care.
