Pet care experience

Paw and People Pleaser!

I have been a pet appreciation magnet as long as I can remember. Even when I am not aiming for the attention, the pets gravitate my way, and i have scritches and belly rubs for them all. I have a rescue of my own for 6+ years now, bichon/poodle mix. Though he had a traumatic start before me, he has adjusted well and is a cuddle bug, and getting better with his socialization with new doggos. I have been a dog sitter for friends over the last 8+ years, when they go on trips. I have experience in minor training, like sit/stay/leash leading, for a few breeds up to 50-70 lbs (no certificates, just repitition and patience). Positive recognition of good behavior and moderate activity (to remedy the bad behavior) when you need me are what I hope to share with your furry family members.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in, good size yard, and a medium size fur baby of my own to greet stay over friends, though my house needs a little more time for prep before we are ready. I am happy to do drop-ins and day or eve walks at your home, and follow any/all your rules. I respect your needs and want to make sure your fur baby is safe and happy in my care. I keep trainer treats in my car, if we need to practice a few basic commands, as well as water and other care essentials. I have a back seat hammock/cover for the pet's safety when traveling (as needed). I also have a med to large dog kennel I can put in the way back of my SUV if that is preferred for safety and security.

Stephanie did such a great job taking care of Lilly. She gave her snacks and played with her and sent me lots of pictures.

You can go wrong with Steph! She commands respect from pets and they love being around her. I saw her make 3 terrier get along! If you are looking for someone clean and detail oriented to care for your pet, look no further.

Stephanie was a delightful pet sitter for our waffles. She sent us frequent updates and photos ensuring us that he was happy and cared for. Waffles sometimes can be a bit of a grump but Stephanie was able to handle his moods, take him on several walks, and make sure he didn't get into any trouble. She cared for him like he was her very own baby and it made our vacation stress free and more enjoyable!

I am currently working part-time, so i can set up a schedule of regular pet attention care during part day time hours. Currently I have weekends free if weekend care is requested, though this may change if requests are light. I am working on my house to be able to provide overnight care in the future, making it care friendly for additional furry friends.
