Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover of any variety
Hi I love animals and for the last twenty years I have had the pleasure of sharing my life with cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, bearded dragons, and fish. I have two rescue Greyhounds and have been volunteering for the Greyhound Trust and Home Run Hounds for 6 years. Prior to that I have volunteered for the RSPCA. I am currently completing an online course in dog behaviour and welfare. I have been a nurse for 30 years now working 9-5 Monday to Friday but with flexibility and my dream is to eventually work full time with animals.
Cat care experience
Stephanie also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I have two rescue Greyhounds, one who is anxious and we are working on her reactivity which is through fear so at this time I am not offering home boarding however I am happy to come to you. Just let me know your routine and requirements and I will respect and work with you.
Ratings and reviews
Stephanie was amazing with my two dogs whilst sitting over at my home for a few days. Updated me frequently, understanding of my nervous dog. Would recommend and could really see she cared about animals.
What a lovely girl Stephanie is. Was very friendly and interested in meeting Roxy. I could see they got on very well and Roxy loves her. Feel very comfortable leaving Roxy in her care
I highly recommend Stephanie as dog sitter. My slightly neurotic spaniel adores her and I can tell the feeling is mutual. She has a real love for all animals, is kind and friendly and I never worry when leaving my girl in her care.

Schedule
I'm currently working full time Monday - Friday (9-5) but there is plenty of time to help with animal care early morning, after 5pm and weekends. I volunteer at dog kennels 8-10.30am on Saturdays. I would not see fitting in animal care as a chore but instead a priveladge. Who doesn't love animal cuddles, obviously on their terms 🙂 My hope is to reduce my 9-5 nursing role and build up my animal care role.
