Information Stephanie R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs, medication, or dietary restrictions so that I am mindful and take extra good care. Let me know of any allergies or concerns.

A typical day

I will play with them with whatever toys they enjoy. I will take them out for walks to explore their surroundings. I enjoy taking pets to the doggy park or the doggy beach. I live in a home with a fenced yard but I’ll still only have them out when we’re able to watch them.

Hello! I’m an all-around pet lover

Pet care experience

Hi there, my husband and I are both all-around pet lovers. We have 3 friendly (sometimes scardy) cats (Sadie, Canelo, & Ryder). They are all friendly and/or do their own thing. :) I love playing w/them & taking them to the park. Looking forward to meeting and playing with your lovely pets :-) we will care for them as if they are our own! Hola! Soy Stephanie, me encantan los animalitos y me gustaría ver como es cuidando su mascota por La aplicación de Rover. Solo he estado en esta aplicación por un mes. Y he tenido buenas experiencias. tengo más de 20 años de experiencia con mis propios mascotas; Cudi Ryder, Canelo, y Sadie (gatos). Son amables y les encantan jugar y explorar.

Stephanie took great care of our dog Choco over the 3 days we were away. Although there was a small miscommunication at the beginning, she responded quickly and clearly to my concerns, which I really appreciated. She sent lots of photos and frequent updates throughout the day, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Overall, she was attentive, responsible, and caring. Thank you again, Stephanie!

Stephanie was great with Luna. She even gave her a holiday photo shoot. For this being my first time trusting anyone to take care of my Luna; Stephanie really helped soothe my nerves.

Stephanie was very attentive to our pup, Roxy, and was respectful of our home. She also communicated regularly and sent photo updates to reassure us while we were out of town. I would recommend her to others looking for a dog sitter!

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