Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard, dog door ( that locks) shelves and hiding spots for cats. I had made this an oasis for my cat and dog while they were still with us. Our free time is spent at the cat cafe, and the humane society. We will go walk the dogs there or play with the cats at both places. Any animal in need of love and attention, we are thrilled to provide it. Our dog passed of cancer 3 years ago and needed to be put down as it had spread and she was in terrible pain. It was a slow, and hard for to let go A year ago, our cat had this disease, and she became immobile immediately and was in chronic pain. It was such a quick loss. So I have been a little hesitant to bring another animal in full time. However, all animals are welcome and we look forward to building a safe spot for you and your pet while you are away.

Information Stevie A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about your pet, as I would like to be the most prepared to make sure it's an easy transition for them, and you. If your pet gets dirty playing in the yard, are baths ok? Do you let your cat go outside (supervised)?

A typical day

Definitely cuddle and pets. With weather permitting walks are a breeze as the trail is right behind us. I'm familiar with the dog parks, and we don't frequent pet stores often. Perhaps a field trip for your pet? Exploring new places and finding out what each pet likes. A dog that likes to play ball, heck ya! ( it's fine in our house) a cat that likes to chase lasers?!? Yes please.

Pet care experience

I love to play and love on animals, and my daughter loves to research breeds and find what they like the most. And care for them that way. Your pet(s) will be well welcomed to our fun loving home. Welcome!

I can't say enough good things about Stevie! From the moment I met her and her daughter, I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. Throughout the week, she was incredibly diligent, providing regular updates and even photos/videos which put my mind at ease. It was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. On top of her excellent care, she was also very flexible when both of our schedules shifted. I highly recommend Stevie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and flexible pet sitter!

Stevie is an animal lover. She has cared for many pets and does a wonderful job. She plays and loves on them as if they were her own pets. She will take excellent care of your pets. I recommend her whole heartedly..
