Your Pet’s New Best Friend

Hi, I’m Steph! I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, and now at 19, I have 5 years of hands-on experience looking after dogs, cats, and other pets for family and friends. From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and giving lots of love, I’ve always been the go-to person when someone needs help with their furry friends. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I follow their usual routine—feeding on schedule, daily walks, playtime, and keeping their space clean and safe. I give lots of love, attention, and updates to ensure both pets and owners feel comfortable and stress-free. I always respect the pet’s habits, and I make sure to follow any special instructions like medications or diet restrictions. My goal is to make the pet feel at home, whether they’re in my care or I’m in theirs.

Stephanie took SUCH GOOD CARE of my babies and home. My pups were so happy spending time with her. She is a very natural and tender with dogs, CRAZY TIDY, super sweet, and a really cool person. I’m so glad we know her and I will be rebooking every chance I get!!

Stephanie was an amazing sitter! She was so communicative, sent tons of photos and absolutely loved on our boys like they were her own. She took them on walks and played with them inside/outside. And I definitely trusted her in our home. We will 100% be booking with Stephanie in the future if she is available!

Stephanie was absolutely amazing! Bella is 7 years old, and this was her first time ever having a dog sitter. I was nervous since I don’t have family in Houston, but Stephanie exceeded every expectation. She kept me updated every single day and communicated with me each time she took Bella outside. She sent plenty of pictures and videos, gave Bella so much love and attention, and even cleaned up my house before I got home. Bella is usually very anxious around new people, but she bonded with Stephanie so quickly. It was obvious Bella felt safe, loved, and even missed her after she left. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If I could hire Stephanie to be Bella’s full-time dog sitter, I would! I will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family.

Schedule

Pet care has become a natural part of my routine over the years. Whether I’m walking a dog in the morning, feeding pets on a set schedule, or spending time playing and bonding with them, I make sure to stay consistent and reliable. Even with a busy schedule, I always make time to give animals the attention and care they need. It’s something I truly enjoy, so it never feels like a chore — it’s just part of my day-to-day life.

It’s important for me to know your dog’s routine, energy level, and any special needs they may have, such as medications, feeding schedule, favorite activities, or triggers. This helps me provide safe, consistent, and comfortable care tailored just for them.
