Registered Vet Tech Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

My name is Stephanie. I would love to help you with your pet sitting needs! I am a registered vet tech for 10+ years now. I can offer in house pet sitting or have your furry friends stay at my house as well. I have 2 German Short Haired Pointers name Fox-12 years old and Eva-9 years old. They are older dogs and tend to be lazy and keep to themselves. I am well trained in working with not only dogs and cats but with exotic pets as well which include birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets, bearded dragons etc. I also am trained in administering medication if needed which include pills and insulin injections. Please reach out for your future travel plans!

Stephanie went above and beyond in taking care of my beloved dogs, Raven and Lulu. Her dedication to their well-being was evident through her regular walks, constant communication, and thoughtful updates with adorable pictures. I wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone seeking a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter.

We were on vacation for 8 days and left our fur baby in the care of Stephanie. She was AWESOME! Not only did she care for our Sally like her own, but also insured that our baby took walks and had different things to play with and stimulation. Her 2 dogs were great companions for our 2 year old! Stephanie took daily photos and videos for us to be rest assured that Sally was being taken care of. We were even provided with a daily "Pet Sitting Report" in writing to see how she ate, slept, and behaved. Sally was definitely in good hands! We will use her services again in June during our next vacation.

Stephanie did an amazing job watching my fur babies! She was responsive, sent several photos, kept me updated on their progress throughout both days and was so patient with them and me! My babies had a great time with her and her fur babies. They all got along really well! Her dogs are a lot bigger than mine, but they were so chill and laid back, after they all met and got used to each other. I would highly recommend leaving your baby with her! She was a vet tech for several years, so she knows how to take care of animals in all different shapes, sizes a d health conditions. She even gave me a progress report on each of my boys! Your babies are in safe and kind hands with her!

My two Great Danes, Rocco and Lya, were taken care of by Stephanie as if they were part of the pack. I felt at ease with Stephanie’s space, the constant communication, and the fact that she has experience working in vet clinics. My dogs took to her and her two dogs immediately. I had never left Rocco and Lya with someone else, and was anxious about it, but I will definitely be booking again with Stephanie. Thank you so much!

Information Stephanie R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to meet with you and your furry friends before hand to get to know you a little better and discuss your expectations of leaving your four legged family member in my hands. We would go over any medications needed, food schedule, sleeping arrangements, any allergies etc. I would also need to know if your pet is fully vaccinated before staying in my home for boarding. My dogs are fully vaccinated and I want to ensure you that your fur babies are staying in a clean, healthy environment while with me.

A typical day

I am willing to take dogs for walks or take them to near by dog parks if the owners are ok with that. I am also willing to play with their favorite toys while visiting.
