Highlights
Pet care experience
A Dog Person Through & Through
I’ve always been a dog lover, and after more than 20 years of caring for them in different capacities, I still think getting to spend time with dogs is one of the best parts of life. They have so much to teach us about love, loyalty, and living in the moment. I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for friends, family, and neighbors for years, helping with everything from walks, feeding, and bathing to longer-term pet sitting. Because I work from home, I can spend the day with your dog, providing plenty of company, attention, walks, and playtime without leaving them alone for long stretches while you’re away. I also foster dogs through Animal Friends Alliance and have cared for dogs with a variety of needs, from puppies to older dogs recovering from major surgery. Fostering has made me even more patient, observant, and attuned to what each individual dog needs to feel safe and comfortable. I know how hard it can be to leave a beloved pet behind, so I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your dog is happy, getting lots of attention, and being cared for by someone who genuinely loves being around them.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m pet sitting, stopping by for a visit, or taking your dog for a walk, I’ll follow their normal routine and any instructions you leave closely. I’m attentive to safety, medications, meals, walks, playtime, and all the little things that help your pet feel comfortable and cared for. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. My goal is for your pet to be happy and relaxed and for you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re in good hands.
Ratings and reviews
Stephanie has cared lovingly for my kitty Carm in my home. I trust and appreciate Stephanie implicitly and recommend her with all the stars. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Stephanie has been wonderful with my little Schnauzer Jetz! She’s cared for him while I’ve been traveling and has also helped with walks while I’m at work. She is also super good with medications or special meals, sooo sharp! She’s dependable and genuinely caring with him. He’s always happy to see her, and I feel completely comfortable knowing he’s in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Stephanie cares for my dear dogs and cats when I am away. She’s one of the only people I would trust with such an important task. Stephanie is trustworthy and capable. She loves my gals and shows it with thoughtful observations of their behaviors and individual quirks. I know while I’m away that my gals are getting the love, attention, and care that they need. If you need someone to care for your loved ones when you can’t, Stephanie is the person I would recommend.
I highly recommend Stephanie Thomas to pet sit your doggie. She loves all dogs and treats them like her own. Whether pet sitting or fostering dogs, she takes extra care of them. Stephanie is the first person I’d call to watch my dog.

Schedule
I work from home, so I’m around most of the day and love that it gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with the dogs I’m caring for. I may step out for a few hours here and there for errands or other commitments, but otherwise I’m fully available to accompany your fur kids!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsStephanie can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- I’d love to know about your pet’s normal routine, personality, favorite things, and any quirks that make them extra special. Please also let me know about any medical needs, medications, dietary restrictions, behavioral concerns, or triggers, as well as how they typically do with other dogs and people. The more I know, the better I can help them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.
