“This was my second time booking Stephanie, and she was once again phenomenal. The cats adore her, and I know I don’t have to worry when she’s under their care. She went above and beyond every visit. She provided detailed updates with plenty of pictures, followed all instructions, and exceeded expectations. I had a wonderful experience, and would definitely request Stephanie for any future pet sitting needs.”

About: Caring for dogs has been a natural part of my life ever since I can remember. It comes easy to me because I adore them! I have experience with cats as well, and used to work on a farm that bred both horses and dogs. I adopted my own rescue puppy in the fall of 2024. Willing to do a meet and greet if you’re interested in having a friend for your dogs visit! My job is 9-5 Monday-Friday, so I’m available either outside of those hours or on weekends. My office is close, so I have some flexibility to stop in during lunch hours. I can focus on play time or extended walks if requested! If you are working on training, let me know so I can help encourage wanted behavior.
“Everything thing went so smoothly. Our cat Manny was well taken care of and got play time for drop in visits. Joyce made sure the food area and litter were extra clean and sent lots of photos. She even shoveled our sidewalk when it snowed! Talk about going the extra mile. I would highly recommend Joyce.”
