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.

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.

Information Stephanie R. would like to know about your pet

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.

A typical day

I love keeping dogs active, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away! Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch in the yard, or a good game of tug-of-war, I make sure pups get plenty of exercise and fun. I also enjoy giving them mental stimulation through simple training refreshers, puzzle toys, and even hide-and-seek games. Every dog has their own personality, so I always match the activities to their energy level—whether that means an adventurous walk, playtime, or just relaxing together with some belly rubs and cuddles.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Steph! I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, and now at 19, I have 4 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.

Stephanie was so wonderful with my dogs. She was very communicative and sent pictures and let me know everything she was doing. It’s so appreciated when you leave your babies at home with someone new. She also left my home probably cleaner than I left it which was very sweet and thoughtful. I would definitely use Stephanie again.

Stephanie was great! She communicated consistently with texts and pictures of our pups. She made sure they were well fed, took them on walks, and managed a few oddball chores we asked her to help with. Our family and pup crew hope to meet again.
