Pet care experience

Love them like my own! ❤️

I’ve been around animals my entire life. Caring for them isn’t something I picked up—it’s just part of who I am. For the past 15 years, I’ve worked alongside my mom caring for animals regularly, and I’ve also pet sat for friends and family throughout my life. Right now, I have five cats and one dog of my own, and over the years I’ve cared for many dogs with different personalities, needs, and routines. I know how much pets mean to the people who love them, and I take that responsibility seriously. I understand that every pet is different, and I treat them with patience, attention, and genuine care—like they’re my own.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable. I follow their routine closely—feeding, walks, medications, and attention—while keeping things calm, consistent, and stress-free. I give them consistent attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

Thank you so much for caring for Pliny. You went above and beyond. Thanks for walking her and playing with her, and helping her feel comfy while we were gone. And the special gift of framed pics was really sweet!

Stephanie is so approachable and her communication is top notch. Very professional! Patrick loved her and she gave him the minute he needed to warm up to the idea. Perfect experience all around. Highly recommend.

Stephanie was extremely attentive and thorough in her care for our dog and cat. Our cat and dog can be a little particular and Stephanie won them both over. Will for sure be asking her to care for our fur babies in the future.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Stephanie! From the very first meeting, she made us all feel so comfortable. She is truly a dog person who goes above and beyond for every pup in her care. We have two dogs with very different needs: one is reactive, and the other has ongoing medical requirements. Finding someone we trust with both of them felt daunting but Stephanie came in with calmness, confidence, and knowledge, knowing exactly how to approach our reactive dog and handling our other pup's medical needs with skill and care. Stephanie was wonderful at keeping me in the loop and made it obvious that our dogs' comfort and wellbeing were her top priority. We feel so incredibly lucky to have found her and will asolutely be booking with her again. If you have dogs with special needs, look no further!

Took great care of my pets-took them on lots of walks and cuddles! Gave me updates about them several times daily. Felt like my dogs had so much fun while I was gone. Came home to cute little photos on the counter of all of them as an extra surprise! Dog person through and through-would recommend and use again!

It is an absolute pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Stephanie, who has been caring for our dog and bunnies for several years. If you are looking for a pet sitter who is reliable, warm-hearted, and genuinely beloved by every animal she meets, look no further! She is, quite simply, the best. First and foremost, her communication is outstanding. She is consistently prompt in responding to messages, easy to coordinate with, and always confirms plans well in advance. Whether it is a quick check-in photo or a scheduling update, she handles everything with cheerful efficiency. Beyond her reliability, what truly sets her apart is her genuine love for animals. She does not simply watch pets; she cares for them with real affection and attentiveness. Our dog lights up the moment she arrives, tail wagging before she even opens the door. That kind of trust from animals is not learned, it is earned, and it speaks volumes about the kindness and patience she brings to every visit. Over the years, we have never once had a concern. Our pets have always been returned to us healthy, happy, and clearly well-loved. She treats our animals as if they were her own, and our home with the same respect. We have traveled knowing everything was in the best possible hands, and that reassurance is truly invaluable. I recommend her without any reservation whatsoever. Any pet would be lucky to spend time in her care, and any pet owner would be lucky to have her. She is as kind as pie, dependable as the sunrise, and an absolute gem of a caregiver.
