As of Jan 2025 my schedule is pretty tight but flexible in the afternoons but still find time for your fur babies! My full days off are Sun & Mon. I work Tuesday - Sat From 7am-2pm and Sometimes 3:30pm on Sat & Fri. You may see that I have worked prior for Las Vegas clients, but as I no longer reside there, I am strictly only accepting Novato/San Marin/ Marin bookings as of right now 🤗 I appreciate all of my LV clients support during this time but I have since moved and won’t be able to accommodate. You may notice I have certain weeks or days blocked off! This is to provide myself with a break from time to time 🤗 If your vacation or trip falls within one or two days during my blocked out days, I will certainly try my best to accept your request! Just be honest and patient with me. Other days that are seen as blocked out are days that are usually booked out completely for a home sitting. Out of respect for owners I will not be able to complete other services such as other pet sittings or check ins just so I can be able to give pet sitting clients my full supervision at all times. If for any reason this does not work with your plans please feel free to let me know and we can work something out :) again, just be respectful and patient and I will get back to your requests as best as I can. Thank you very much 🩵

I have a very simple schedule for your doggies that are left in my care! I usually let them out first thing in the morning and give them a few minutes before I prepare their meals. After 25 minutes I prepare the doggies for their walks and come back ready for the rest of the day! This is usually the time where I let the doggies play or rest maybe even take a nap! Every 1-2 hours I let them out to potty and possibly squeeze in another fun walk. Last meal is to be served at 5pm and last walk at 4:30pm. If there is any specific routines you would like me to follow, please let me know ahead of time. I try and do at least 2 walks a day and maybe 3 if they're still energetic. I'm able to update throughout the process and gladly able to provide you with pictures and videos if wanted :)
Information Stephanie V. would like to know about your pet
please keep me aware of any allergies, medical conditions, and likes/dislikes. Ex: allergic to peanut butter, doesn’t like being pet on his/her tummy, etc. Please let me know if your dog is friendly with other dogs as well. It’s good to be informed on whether they are properly trained as well, in order to avoid accidents. UPDATES: if you are booking with me or wanting to book, PLEASE respond to messages. This is very crucial to me accepting your booking! As there have been many bots and scammers requesting booking here on rover I will need a few messages answered regarding the booking type. UPDATE: due to high demand for pet sitting/ home sittings, prices have changed, thank you so much for your support and thank you for booking with me<3 UPDATE: please have a profile picture and/or fill out details regarding your dog’s details, or I will not be booking with you. This is crucial to every booking, it helps me get a run down of how your pup is and essential details regarding them. Not only this, it guarantees you are a real person and not a scammer. thank you.
A typical day

Pet care experience
Hello! I'm Sophia/ Stephanie your newest dog walker and future dog nanny to your fellow fur babies. Now a little backstory about me.. I currently have three doggies of my own who mean the absolute world to me. Tonalli, my sassy yet sweet and loving Xolo. Pablito, our spoiled and adorable toy poodle. And the newest addition to our family, Poli. While I love my babies so very much, I am ready and excited to meet your very own fur babies. I provide nice lengthy walks for those that love them and even offer treats for an after walk reward :) Please do alert me of any allergies or serious medical conditions before booking! I look forward to meeting all of you very soon! (hablo español también! :)
Reviews
Stephanie did a great job looking after my two cats. She had excellent communication, and took care of the food and litter box cleaning. I would definitely book her again.
Stephanie is just terrific. Takes excellent care of my little dog and my home, sends me photos, and is always responsive to texts. I would have her back anytime!
Stephanie did an amazing job with my pets. She communicated often and through out the day. Stephanie was kind and understanding with my dogs, and shared so many pictures of them enjoy snuggle and play time.
Stephanie was great! Showed up on time, checked in with updates and pictures! Will be using her services again.
