Experienced Dog Lover & Care Taker!

Pet care experience

I've worked closely with sled dogs for 6 years in the interior of Alaska which has given me all kinds of experiences with dogs. I also grew up with all kinds of dogs, from a Schnoodle to a Great Dane. I'm a very active person, I spent a majority of my high school years working at a doggy daycare and walking dogs on the side! I enjoy taking walks around our scenic neighborhood, going to the dog park or river and going for hikes (long & short!). In addition, I have acquired a lot of knowledge between training sled dogs and working at a vet clinic. I am now living in central Minnesota and have worked at the local Humane Society for almost 4 years.

We have been bringing one of our dogs, Mabel, to Steph’s since she was just a pup. Steph has helped to support the training we have done with Mabel to provide consistency which is important for our girl. Her balanced pack has helped to socialize Mabel from a young age, which was our goal. Mabel’s the kind of dog that needs regular social interactions with dogs to help her keep learning. Even though Mabel can get sassy, Steph keeps working with her in a positive way and her pack keeps welcoming Mabel in. We started sending our second dog, Walter, to Steph and he fits right in. He loves playing with her pack, but probably loves snuggling with Steph more. Both Mabel and Walter get super excited when the car pulls up to Steph’s house, and they are happy and exhausted when I pick them up! Steph is an incredible human, and has helped so much with our dogs. She is honest, trustworthy, and a true animal lover. I’m so happy we stumbled on Steph and the Whack Pack’s rover profile. Don’t look any further - just call Steph.

Steph is a dog lover and a wonderful care taker. She has an abundance of experience, not only from her job, but from her personal life as well. She is extremely knowledgeable on dog needs and different breed types.

I know Stephanie through Tri County Humane Society. She is wonderful with all of the animals and has years of experience working with all breeds of dogs. She is responsible, loving and compassionate and will treat your pets like her own. Whether you need overnight care, or someone to exercise your dog occasionally, you can trust Stephanie!

Stephanie and the entire whack pack are amazing! My dog was known to be a difficult dog she was learning that people aren't scary. She absolutely loves being with Stephanie! She thrives in the established pack structure that Stephanie's house provides. And Stephanie has also been incredibly kind even when my escape artist tries to run the streets. If you want someone who is going to treat your pet like they are her very own look no further. You and your furbaby won't be sorry!
