Pet care experience

I have always been a huge animal lover, and I’m pretty sure my first word was the name of our dog. I grew up in a “suburban zoo” and have always had a variety of animals. I have raised Guide dogs for the Blind, and trained all types of dogs, I have also fostered over 200 kittens, puppies, and dogs. I started a “company” for dog walking and sitting when I was 12 for all the neighborhood dogs and have been continuing to do that throughout my life. I have worked extensively with positive reinforcement and mixed reinforcement and also have a great understanding of E-collars. I also have worked with special needs dogs and difficult dogs. It is hard to find an animal I don’t love or get along with!

Stephanie stayed with our dog for four nights. When we got home the house was just as we left it, including a very happy dog! Stephanie took excellent care of our pup, sent photos and was very engaged with our dog (she took him for walks, and on some adventures). We highly recommend Stephanie!

I had Stephanie watch Odin over Memorial Day Weekend, and when I picked him up, you could tell he was happy and exhausted. It’s always good to get back a dog who was tired for a full ~2 days after picking him up!

Where to start when giving accolades to the best dog sitter we ever had? Stephanie Rosa has been our Doggie sitter for well over 10 years! You couldn't ask for a more compassionate, loving and attentive person to care for an animal. Our dog Shadow just recently passed away but when he was alive he adored Stephanie and when Stephanie would come to our house he would get so excited that he would cry. We could go on and on with all the little special things that she would do for Shadow but we will just say this, you would be hard pressed to find anyone more perfect to entrust your dog too. She is not only great with animals, she's an all around great person! Kathleen, David, Carson and Cruz Almoslino San Jose, CA

Stephanie is the Miss Dolittle to pets :). She is kind and loving to pets of all kind. On top of that she has a wealth of knowledge about training and care of animals.
