All Creatures Great and Small
Pet care experience
I am a Michigan transplant and an animal person with years of experience, including as petsitter, aquarist, veterinarian technician, field scientist, and farmer. I’ve worked with all creatures great and small, and am uniquely qualified to take care of your fish tank, farm animals, and exotic pets. I am also an avid organic gardener and I love to grow my own food. I own a quaint cottage home with a fully fenced yard. All animals are allowed on the furniture so that they can indulge in the comfort they deserve. I love taking quirky puppy pics in beautiful places while on hikes and adventures. Playing is a great way to establish trust and blow off steam, and I try to capture that on camera as much as possible. I am an outdoor enthusiasts, and when I lived out West I regularly offered "adventure" packages for dogs who benefitted from extended hikes. My own dog Velma is famous on the lake for being my paddleboard companion! I would love the opportunity to work with elderly or disabled animals, and am competent administering medications. It would be my pleasure to get to know your dog, cat, chicken, shrimp, goat, bird, hamster, and any other critters in your family! Feel free to contact me for references and resume.
Reviews
Stevie is the best! She always provides exceptional care for our pets. We are very grateful for her kindness and dedication. Thank you Stevie!
This is my second time booking with Stevie and she is always super attentive and communicative. My cat loves her!
Stevie is such a kind and empathetic person. Loves animals and people too AND she knows TONS about plants and gardens!!
Stevie was great taking care of our cat Barry. Barry requires a little more care and attention than some cats, and Stevie made sure to give him his medicine and take good care of him. We’ll be happy to work with Stevie again.

When staying at a client's home, my practice is to leave it cleaner than when I arrived. I value my clients' trust as one of my greatest assets, and can ensure that your home and property will be respected at all times.

Please do not hesitate to ask about special requests and additional services. I was able to build a robust and loyal client base when I lived out of state, and I am confident that I can do the same here.
A typical day
Activities are tailored to the needs and energy level of each particular animal. Many of my "golden" clients are most happy to have someone to snuggle on the couch with. For more active dogs, I like to get creative! I love taking quirky puppy pics in beautiful places while on walks and adventures.

I am an outdoor enthusiasts, and when I lived out West I regularly offered "adventure" packages for dogs who benefitted from extended hikes. My own dog Velma is famous on the lake for being my paddleboard companion. Locally I take advantage of the many trail systems and parks in Oakland County. When booking, I confirm with pet parents what kind of destinations and modes of transport they are comfortable with.
