Information Stephanie P. would like to know about your pet

Any allergies, behavioral issues, medical issues, etc. I appreciate honesty! I am not your regular person, I understand these animals for what they are. If it is a situation I am uncomfortable with I will always be upfront and honest as well. You allowing me to really know your dog, gives me the best opportunity in taking care of them!

A typical day

Every animal is different, just like every single human being is unique. If they prefer to run around outside with another dog companion, or they would rather stay in and chew on a bone, I’m flexible

Pet care experience

MEDICAL AND LIVESTOCK BACKGROUND: I am an alumni of the university of Rhode Island where I received a bachelors degree in animal sciences and technology, participating in the pre veterinary program. I also hold a certification in pet nutrition- among experience between shelters and rescues, I've spent time on a working farm handling, treating and caring for all animals. I can help with everything from daily visits in your own home to overnight care. I handle all companion and small animals, exotics and livestock. Sitting on over an acre of land, with a fenced in individual play yard, that even contains bottom rails to ensure safety for even the biggest escape artists, our home is open to your furry babe or the family. Every entrance in my home is also on a , DOUBLE- DOOR system. I have successfully been running a mobile canine daycare and socialization business now for over 5 years, have a wonderful regular full time “play pack” and have room for a few more. Puppies are encouraged! Socialization is great both mentally and physically for the growing and developing puppy. I offer two types of puppy programs- “the headstart” for the pet parents and the actual puppy program for dogs under 4 1/2 months. Please reach out to see our set-up, and see if it’s your perfect getaway! I DO NOT BREED DISCRIMINATE!!! ALL FRIENDLY AND UTD VX DOGS ARE ALLOWED! Raw diet feeding accepted as well! Extensive experience with bully and large breeds* I handle farm animals and farm visits including all livestock (horses, cows, goats, sheep, chickens, alpacas etc.) both small and large exotics. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babe!

Stephanie was absolutely amazing with my dog, Dior! From the moment we met her, I could tell she genuinely loves and cares for animals. Leaving your dog with someone else can always feel stressful, but she made the entire experience so comfortable and reassuring. She kept me updated, treated Dior like family, and made sure he was happy, safe, and well cared for the entire time. Dior came home relaxed, happy, and clearly very loved while he was with her, which says everything. Stephanie is reliable, kind, attentive, and truly goes above and beyond. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust with my baby. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter. Thank you again, Stephanie, for taking such amazing care of Dior! 🐾❤️

Stephanie took excellent care of our high-energy, reactive, adolescent pitbull! She was flexible with drop off and pick up times when our flights were delayed. And she had helpful recommendations for training. Thank you Stephanie!

Stephanie took excellent care of our dog. She was responsive to communications, sent pics of our dog enjoying the snow and an overall pleasure to deal with.
