Stephanie can care for
Availability
Right now the plan is overnight care, I find that pets are usually happier in their own homes, especially if the stay is for a long period of time. If walks are needed, they’d be used to their surroundings and have no trouble adapting, I love when dogs feel safe and secure.

About Stephanie S.

Safety, trust & environment
I’m very respectful and attentive to how the owner treats and interacts with their pet, I respect their privacy and space and keep my eye on their babies as much as I possibly can. If there are specific orders I follow and ask permission for anything they might have not mentioned. Due to me pet sitting full time, your pet will never be left alone, I also am open to sleeping on the same bed with them if preferred, anything that will make them feel the most comfortable is fine with me, cuddling is my favorite part after all. That being said, if your furbaby doesn’t like being touched too much or a cuddling session, I by all means respect that, having been a dog owner since I was in literal diapers Ive come to notice when a dog isn’t fond of something im doing and it comes to an immediate stop.
Information Stephanie S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dogs have any sign of aggression towards strangers or other dogs, I personally prefer dog friendly dogs ( IF a daily walk is required!) :) and ones who don’t cause any problems with any walking pedestrians. As i’ve mentioned before I will be with them full time but if on a rare occasion I must go out, please let me know if they have separation anxiety, I would never want to cause any form of stress on your pet.
A typical day
i love making sure your dogs never get bored, playing games with them and daily walks is a must, but of course if they want to rest im not stopping them. Their happiness comes first.

Pet care experience
Ive been surrounded by dogs and cats ever since I was a child, whether it be my own or from friends, neighbors, family members exc there’s always been one present filling the room with joy, comfort, and gratitude. Friends and Family have always trusted me with their pets, Ive always respected their boundaries and rules, kept them entertained and happy and gave constant updates to the owners just so they didn’t have a constant worry about whether they were safe or not. Dogs to me, or any pet for the matter, are like family, you protect and you treat them like one of your own, my love for them goes above and beyond, and id love to think their safest place is with me.
Reviews
This was our second time booking Stephanie to watch our senior dog. She took great care of her and we came home to a happy dog. We appreciated that she took out the trash and kept our house clean. We are thankful to have found a great sitter to give us peace of mind while we’re traveling. Thanks for all of your help, Stephanie!
We loved having Stephanie care for Basil for 4 nights. She was very communicative, trustworthy and we came home to a very happy dog and a clean house. We will absolutely be having Stephanie come back to care for Basil again!
This was our first time booking Stephanie to watch our 10 year old dog while we were away for three days. It can always be a little nerve-wracking to leave your pupper with a new sitter, but Sage seemed to love Stephanie right away during our meet and greet! Stephanie did a great job taking care of Sage and took her on a few walks each day, fed her twice a day, and gave her lots of love and care. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. I would definitely recommend Stephanie and we’ll be booking her again!
Stephanie did a great job winning over our very shy and anxious Chihuahua-Yorkie rescue. She was patient and calm and in less than 24 hours, Stella was on her back, begging for belly rubs. Stephanie also cared for our 3 cats, sent regular updates, dealt with house tasks, and left our home spotless. Highly recommended!
