Professional dog care/ animal lover

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a lover of all fur-babies, not just dogs! I have been petsitting both casually and professionally for most of my life. I am also currently on the dog care team at Love In The Lead Canine Training part time. I love dogs of all breeds and I look forward to meeting new pups every day. I grew up in a household full of pets as a child (including two dogs), so I feel most at home when working with animals. I enjoy dogs that are energetic and like long walks most, but I have a soft spot in my heart for felines of all types! I am flexible with scheduling and I believe that care should be accessible to all pet-parents. Send me a message and I’ll get back as soon as possible! With a new baby at home walking dogs help me stay active! Your dog will *probably* love my fenced in back yard. I can throw a tennis ball for hours without getting bored. I have two cats, Oliver and Ivy. They’re my sweet chunky babies who are laid back and used to my dog boarding antics. I work from home with my two toddlers in the house. I am able to be home with your pet nearly 24/7! If I am not home, someone always is. I have a fenced in yard & a very walkable, friendly neighborhood I can take your pup on plenty of walks in! I do have cats and small children in the home.

Stephanie was absolutely great checking in on my needy cat Stanley! She followed all instructions, kept things tidy, and was so loving with him. I will definitely be using her services again!

AAHHH...MAYYY...ZIINGGG! For our first time using Rover and on a long weekend, we couldn't have picked a better match. So good that I think my pup is going to miss her until next time! She did extra little touches that were not expected but so nice. Such a caring person!!

Stephanie was awesome, sent me so many updates and put my mind at ease with my puppy. Nyx came back relaxed and happy!

A typical day for me consists of walking my kids in their stroller joined by whatever dog I have booked that day. The rest of the day is pretty laid back as I care for my kids, all pups are allowed in & out as they wish & will be supervised, just for safety.
