Pet care experience
Dogs are a part of my life. I have a long history of pet sitting, training, and caretaking for other people's pets. We have had dogs and cats all of my life. But dogs are my favorite and I can't wait to have another dog of my own.
Reviews
Stephanie was fantastic with Izze. She sent me daily updates and photos that made it easier to enjoy our trip! I would highly recommend her and know that Izze will love for her to house sit again!
Stephanie provided excellent care for my two dogs during my absence, alleviating any worries I had about leaving them. With a 12-hour hospital shift ahead, ensuring my girls didn't feel abandoned or neglected was paramount to me, and Stephanie truly saved the day. She kept me informed with updates and photos throughout the day, demonstrating her commitment to their well-being and happiness. During our meet and greet, Stephanie took extra care to understand the dogs' safety needs and unique quirks, instilling confidence in her ability to wholeheartedly care for them. I highly recommend Stephanie and would entrust her with my fur babies again without hesitation.
Thanks Stephanie! Love the updates! Oakley loves you.
Stephanie is the best! We had some last minute things come up while she was watching our puppy, and she handled them all in stride and was tremendously helpful, communicative, and knowledgeable. Would recommend her very highly to anyone!

Home
Information Stephanie S. would like to know about your pet
If there is anything specific to your fur baby, please let me know. Your relationship with them has been cultivated over time. There are nuances to your training, their responses, etc which can help them feel comfortable with me. Also, if there are any behavioral cues I should keep an eye out for, that's also important information. Tell me what I need to know to make sure they are health and happy.
A typical day
I am new to Portland so I am ready to explore dog parks, hiking trails, river walks, and more. If you have a secret hidden gem in your neighborhood or a spot let me know. Otherwise, I have been known to walk with the dog and let the dog pick the direction. Sometimes, we end up at the dog's family friend's house. Each day depends on the animal and the family. When I arrive at the house, I make sure the pupper knows me and is comfortable. Sometimes they are ready to get right away, other times, you can tell they want a little back scratch to warm them up. Once out in the world, I take cues from them to make sure we are off for a great adventure in the great outdoors. Their safety and happiness are always my priority.
