Stephanie can care for
Availability
I'm working full-time but have a standard schedule that allows me to plan for dog walks and general pet care, especially on the weekends. I also have a car, which allows me to easily commute to different locations. Please note: For Easter,I will charge a holiday rate but only for that Sunday.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
At the moment I can only pet-sit at the client's home since my location does not allow for pets. If I am staying in a client's home, I am pretty accommodating to where I'll stay and just always try to ask for a list of house rules or tips to make sure everything goes smoothly.
Information Stephanie S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if they are house trained or if there are certain things they tend to chew on. It's also helpful to know their typical eating and bathroom routine.
A typical day
Walks will depend what neighborhood I'm in but I'm willing to learn what your dog loves to do! I'm always up for visiting dog parks if your pet prefers or can just inside and see if they want to just cuddle or find some of their toys to try to stimulate some activity. Every dog is different so I just try to make them as comfy as possible!

All about the long walks
Pet care experience
I have had pets since I was about five years old (fish, cats, and a dog) and love caring for all types of creatures! Growing up, I got lots of playtime with my huge, lovable puppy who was half German Shepard, half husky. My family raised her alongside two Persian cats. I also have experience with short-term care (usually no more than a week) for the cats and dogs of family and friends. I am a recent MPH grad with a work schedule that allows me to be home by 4:30/5pm and with lots of flexible time on the weekends. I will make sure to coordinate the most appropriate schedule for you and your cherished pet. I'll also make sure your pet gets plenty of play time and belly rubs.
Reviews
I highly recommend Stephanie! She is responsive and the dogs clearly have a great time when she stays.
Having Stephanie take care of Charlie (big needy cat) always leaves us feeling assured that everything will go well. We come home to a calm and happy cat, with all the mail and packages taken care of. Kathy
We initially booked Stephanie for 3 nights but had to make a last minute change-- she was quite accommodating. Stephanie is a great communicator and there were not issues with her care of the dogs or house. We would definitely book her again!
Stephanie was excellent with Evie and gave updates and pictures. Evie had a blast! We will definitely use her again!
