Compassionate, professional care

Pet care experience

I love all animals and will take great care of your pet. I’m new to Rover, but I have 15+ years experience with clients and friends, and a lifetime of experience with my own variety of pets. I’ve worked at Hi Tor Animal Shelter taking care of animals and helping with adoptions, as a veterinary assistant at VEG in Nanuet for a year, and I’m currently a vet assistant at All Creatures Pomona. I’m also in school for animal nursing to become a licensed veterinary technician (LVT). I love to give all animals and pets compassionate, nurturing, and professional care and companionship. My available services include meals, bathroom breaks, walks, play-time, socialization, and also some medical attention as needed like vet visits, meds (oral, topical, ear/eye drops, injection), and grooming (baths, claws, etc). I also have some experience with training and can assist with managing certain behavioral issues. I'm able to handle any type of dog, any age, any size, most temperaments, and I can manage special-needs pets. Cats are also among my areas of expertise. I work with other animals as well, including reptiles (especially snakes), hamsters, birds, etc.

Stephanie was amazing with care for our dog! She was on time, friendly, thoughtful, gentle, extremely knowledgeable and super responsive to requests and details about our fur baby! She even went above and beyond with making sure he ate all of his food/meds and sent detailed updates! Really appreciated having her watch over our pup!

Information Stephanie R. would like to know about your pet

Communication is key. I’m good at reading temperaments, but knowing about any cute little quirks (or triggers) in advance will mean the difference between fun and fear. My aim is always to meet your pet on their level, make them feel comfortable, and most of all give good care and lots of love.

A typical day

Activities vary by pet, but playtime can be walks, frisbee or catch in the yard, playing with favorite toys, snuggles and cozy lounge time, and whatever your pet can safely enjoy!

Availability

I’m currently working part time as a veterinary assistant in Pomona, so my schedule is flexible for other pet care needs. I have availability during some days, evenings, and weekends. *PLEASE READ RE: OVERNIGHT HOUSE SITTING: Rover does not currently allow users to specify available time frames for house sitting stays, so while I do have availability for some overnight pet/house sitting, it will usually be limited to a short duration, like 2-3 nights at a time, with the possibility for occasional exceptions (TBD). The open days that I have posted on my calendar are days that I can be available in general, and I’ll try to work something out to meet your needs if possible. I’ve posted a 1-day cancellation policy, but I would prefer 48 hours notice of cancellation for a commitment so that I have an opportunity to reallocate that time. The main thing is clear communication in advance so that dates, details, and expectations can all be sorted out.
