Hello! My name is Steph and I am a huge animal lover. I currently live in Bulford and work for Dogs Trust Rehoming Centre in Salisbury as a Rehabilitation Trainer. Previously I have worked for Highcroft Veterinary Hospital and Bristol Animal Rescue Centre, a subranch of the RSPCA organisation. I have lots of animal experience and have grown up around a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, geese and small furries (hamsters, rats and some naughty chincillas)!
I currently have three little bunnies called Fawn, Fox and Lenny and a rescue cat named Bo (Bones). My experience with exotic animals is limited, however, I have worked with birds, tortoises and snakes through my previous job. Additionally, I have completed a Level 3 Animal Welfare and Conservation course, Canine Training and Companion/Captive Welfare courses.
In my current job I help look after, train and rehome canines relinquished to Dogs Trust. As such, I am fully aware that every animal has distinctive needs and am more then happy to cater on an individual basis. My services include:
*Dog walking* Walks to suit you and your pets needs e.g. length, routes etc. Ideally I would like to keep the pack small so that I can give everyone lots of attention, however more than happy to walk multiple if temperment of pet is well behaved on lead.
*Pet Sitting and Overnight* Happy to cater Pet sitting to individual client needs and this can be discussed. More than happy to visit Pet within your home for litter/cage changing, watering, feeding, grooming and playtime! Due to the location I live I can offer some pet sitting in my own home, this can be discussed on an individual basis, typically smaller furries.
*Other* Frequent pet updates via text or in app, happy to track distance and route using appropriate apps so you can monitor/see pets walking route. Can provide more intensive walks if requested for more active pets! I am aware and understanding of pets which may have behavioural difficulties and am happy to cater to specific needs, e.g. muzzle and harness for walks, keeping away from other animals etc.
I will also pick up the post, water plants and pop your bins out when you are away.

We used Stephanie for the first time over the Christmas period and she was fantastic. Our cat was well looked after, fed, watered, played with, groomed and cleaned. Her communication was brilliant, she messaged very day to let us know everything was ok. We would definitely use Stephanie again and would definitely recommend.
Stephanie was great in looking after our cats i could not find any fault in her services and hope she will be able to do so again as it is short notice.
It is only two cats now as snowdrop passed away about three months ago we miss him still
