Highlights
Pet care experience
There is no such thing as to many
Hello, My name is Stephanie. Ever since I can remember I have been surrounded by animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, ferrets, horse, etc. When I turned 21, my sister and I bought a 67 acre farm in PA which we still own. I have since moved to VA with my husband and 3 kids along with our Furbabies. Yes, I had to upgrade to a mini van just to fit everyone but I wouldn't want it any other way. I would treat your babies as if they were my own. I would make sure they recieve tons of love while you are gone with updated pictures if requested. Please feel free to send me a message if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you!

Ratings and reviews
Stephanie was punctual and very flexible with our schedule which we greatly appreciate. Highly recommend using her for your dogs and cats!
Stephanie was so good with Molly & Ziggy. She provided me with updates all of the time. My dogs seemed happy and well cared for when I picked them up.
Stephanie made my dog Mini Trix so comfortable, I would definitely board him with her again. Normally he doesn't eat the first 2 days, but Stephanie and her daughters made him feel so at home, that he had no issues of not wanting to eat his regular meals.
Stephanie took such good care of Marty and kept us up to date the whole time, even when storms came through. He had a great stay and we will definitely have Marty stay with Stephanie in the future!
Stephanie did a fantastic job with my dogs! Would definitely recommend!!
Stephanie was absolutely amazing with Mika! Mika got tons of exercise, running around, doggy pool and love. Mika came back to us calmer and better behaved. Constant check ins and photos. Mika was very happy with Stephanie and family. Definitely go with Stephanie from here on out! Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed choosing her!

Schedule
Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my day it is my day. 🐾 Pet sitting is my full-time job, so my daily and weekly routine revolves around making sure every animal in my care feels safe, loved, and well exercised.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide care in both my home and my clients’ homes, depending on the service selected and what keeps each pet most comfortable. Every pet is different, so I tailor care to their energy level, personality, and any special instructions. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are safe and happy.
Pets
A typical day
I love making pets’ time with me fun, enriching, and full of adventure! Activities are tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level. We enjoy daily walks, playtime, enrichment games, and plenty of cuddle breaks. For more active pups, I love going on nature walks and hikes to help them burn energy and explore safely. I also enjoy including pets in seasonal fun: we’ve visited Santa, stopped by the Easter Bunny, and captured adorable holiday photos for their families. Whether it’s a relaxing stroll, a backyard game of fetch, or a special outing, my goal is to keep pets happy, engaged, and feeling loved while their owners are away.

- Before caring for any pet, I like to learn as much as possible to ensure a safe, smooth, and stress-free experience for everyone. Important details include feeding schedules, allergies, medications, daily routines, energy level, and any behavioral quirks such as anxiety, leash reactivity, or fears. I also like to know their favorite toys, comfort habits, and what helps them feel calm when their owners are away. Understanding how a pet interacts with children, other animals, strangers, and new environments is especially helpful. Clear emergency contacts and veterinary information are also essential. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can keep pets comfortable, maintain their routine, and provide the loving care they’re used to at home.
