Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs since middle school. I became the neighborhood pet sitter and family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe there pets. In high school I volunteered with my local animal hospital and as my neighbors pets grew older they relied on my to take care of meds and special needs of their furry friends. I’ve worked with all ages from puppies to seniors and have happily watched them grow every stage in between. I love animals and hope to be able to help you out!

We've used Stephanie twice now, and will definitely use her in the future. She gives an update with photos every day, and even won over our very nervous Sheltie. Highly recommend!!

Stephanie was very responsive before and during the stay, sending lots of photo updates! Our two dogs were very happy with her and we will definitely book again!

Stephanie is wonderful ! She did an excellent job with everything from our initial contact to her extremely diligent care of our pets ! It was a great comfort to go away knowing she was there to check on pups and home. She sent photos of every visit and spent lots of time with them… I felt bad because our dogs were all over her !! But really do appreciate everything she did for us & have even booked her again in a few months… thank you Stephanie !!

During the afternoon to night I’ll be able to hang out with the pup for the majority of time for playtime, walks and cuddles! During the week I am in lab or class 9-3 (T/Th/F) and 9-5 (M/W) until the end of may, during summer I will be in lab 9-3 M-F Weekends I’ll be able to devote all of my time to the pup or check in whenever needed per your preference. I’m also able to take on multiple dogs in a household, I just ask you inform me of any special needs such as feeding separately or walking separately :)
