Aunt to all my friends' fur babies!
Pet care experience
I LOVE dogs and cats and all my friends love that I love their fur children like my own. I am the "Auntie Steph" to all their pets! I'm an ICU nurse and work very long shifts, which is why I don't have a pet of my own. But I have cared for pets since I was in college, whenever friends and family needed someone to walk their dogs, house sit, or check in on their cats. My friends joke that I am a pet whisperer. I would be honored to have the opportunity to care for your pet as my own!
Reviews
Steph will go above and beyond for your pups! She watched our Boonie for 2 weeks and took him on long walks and even took him to the dog park (by request). She’s also very detail oriented so whatever specific needs your pup has you can be sure she’ll take care of it. You can tell she really loves dogs so your pup is truly in good hands!

Safety, trust & environment
I do not have any other pets so your pet will have my full attention. For doggy day care, I live in a gated apartment complex that is across the street from a regular park and dog park, so I would be happy to take your dog there if that is a service you would be interested in!
Information Stephanie P. would like to know about your pet
Things I would like to know: - Behavior towards walkers/pet sitters coming into their home and what makes them most comfortable - Behavior towards strangers and children on walks - Interaction with other dogs - Whether they prefer to be snuggled or like their personal space - Normal walk habits (if any) - Nicknames that you usually refer to them as, if they don't respond to their listed name
A typical day
Dog care: I love getting my steps in so I would love to go on long walks or take them to the park that is across the street from my apartment complex. The park also has a sectioned off dog park (I would ask for permission first because I know some dogs don't like other dogs). I would also play with their favorite toys with them and give them all the attention they could want! Cat care: I would give them attention and pets if that is their thing, or love them from a distance if they prefer having their own space. I can give them fresh water, make sure the litter box is clean, and give them food as well! I'm happy to use your laser pointer or feather toy too if they enjoy those!
Services

Availability
