Information Stephanie O. would like to know about your pet

I almost have no breed, size, temperaments or age preferences. I would just need to know the basics. When they eat, their temperament, how many walks per day, etc. I can make it work for any pet. I also can take care of cats, small pets (rabbits, guinea pigs, etc.) and reptiles.

A typical day

I like to go for walks and trips to the park. There is a leash free dog park very close to where I live and several leashed parks relatively close as well. I love playing with dogs and just hanging out on the couch watching movies.

I Would Care For Animals As My Own!

Pet care experience

I love animals more than anything in the world. I have cared for animals in some capacity for the majority of my life. In my life I have owned and loved dogs, cats, rabbits, chinchillas, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, a turtle, hamsters, gerbils, fish, lobsters, aquatic frogs, aquatic worms, rats and mice. Aside from my own pets, I have fostered cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, guinea pigs, chinchillas, hamsters and rabbits. I have fostered kittens and puppies from a couple days old, hand feeding them every couple hours. I have fostered animals that have been litter/outdoor trained and ones that were not. I have fostered animals with health issues and am comfortable with senior pets. As far as pet sitting, in the past I have watched other people’s dogs, cats, rats, a snake and birds. I’ve pet sat dogs at my own home and at the owner’s home but I am currently only offering boarding. I am comfortable with introducing animals to other animals of all kinds. If the animal is comfortable, they may roam free in the whole house. If they are not comfortable, I have a free entire comfy room to use and I also have gates to block off specific areas. I will make sure all animals are cared for, given lots of space and of course a lot of attention and love! I live close to an off-leash dog park as well as several leashed parks, including Assiniboine Park. I have a vehicle so I can drive to pick up/drop off (if needed) and can drive to a vet in case of an emergency. All in all, I just genuinely really love all animals and it would be my pleasure to hang out with your furry family members!

Stephanie was absolutely WONDERFUL!! i was very unsettled about needing boarding for my 2 kidz - it was going to be our first time away from one another (over night(s)). The first time Stephanie met my 2, my shoulders dropped as they both took to her. You know that's a great sign when they feel comfortable and at ease. Stephanie sent pix and updates every day, which calmed me grately. They had soo much fun. i will DEFINITELY be keeping Stephanie as my kidz 'sitter' for future events. She was awesome to them - treating them like they were her own. i can't say enough great things. My kidz really like her too, which is very important to me. On such short notice she's the one that came through. 5 starz+ in my books!!

My doggies loved her and enjoyed their stay. Stephanie allowed them on her bed to sleep with her and I thought that was absolutely endearing. She also provided updates with pictures. Would definitely book again when I need to travel. Thank you so much!

Another great boarding experience! Pick up and drop off were easy, my dogs were happy to see Stephanie again, and communication was always good. Thanks for taking good care of my nerds!

Bane loved his stay with Stephanie. She sent updates, understood his quirks and clearly has big, awkward, goofy dog experience.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
