Pet care experience

"tell your dog I said, Hi"

I got my first dog when I was 10 and haven't been without ever since. My family currently consist of a one year old Shepsky, two year old husky, an 9 year old Shiba, 13 year grey tuxedo cat, and my 16 year old, grumpy old man, miniature schnauzer/Boston terror. I will treat your fur babies like my own and give them the care they need. Please send me any special details I will need to know to provide your baby with the best care. Example: if your pup is dog reactive or pulls on leash.

Stephanie took exceptional care of both our anxious dog and our cat. She went above and beyond by sending frequent photo updates, which really put us at ease while we were away. It was clear she treated our pets with the same love and attention as her own. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust not only with our animals but also in our home. She left everything spotless and was the perfect house guest. If you’re looking for true peace of mind while you’re on vacation, Stephanie is absolutely the one to hire.

Stephanie took great care of my dogs while I was on my trip. She was very flexible with her start and stop times which helped me out tremendously. She also updated me every day with several pictures. I would not hesitate to book her again.

Stephanie is an amazing dog person! I love her experience with all types of dogs - we have one very challenging pup and two disabled pups - Stephanie did amazing and I cannot wait for future bookings.
