Care Built on Understanding

Thoughtful, in-home pet care rooted in routine, observation, and respect for each pet's individual needs. 

Hi, I'm Stephanie

I've been providing professional pet care in the Wilmington area since 2018, working with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Over the years, one thing has become very clear to me: pets do best when their care feels familiar, predictable, and calm. â€‹That belief shapes every visit I provide. 

​

My background in pet care goes beyond standard drop-ins and walks. I previously ran my own in-home daycare and boarding business for 4 years, where I managed daily routines, group dynamics, and individualized care in a structured home environment. I've also worked in local dog daycare and boarding facilities, giving me hands-on experience with a wide range of temperaments, play styles, and stress levels.

​

In addition, I've spent time training and evaluating service dog prospects, including successfully placing a dog with a disabled veteran. While I do not currently offer dog training or behavior modification services, this experience allows me to recognize stress signals, prevent overstimulation, and handle pets thoughtfully and safely. If a client needs training support, I'm always happy to refer them to a trusted local trainer. 

​

My goal is simple: to provide reliable, calm, and professional care that helps pets feel secure in their own environment and helps their people feel confident leaving them behind. 

Why Families Choose This Style of Care

  • Pets stay in their familiar environment

  • Routines are respected and followed

  • Care feels calm, not rushed or chaotic

  • Communication is clear and consistent

Many of my clients tell me they appreciate knowing their pet is being cared for in a way that feels thoughtful and steady- especially for shy pets, seniors, or multi-pet households. â€‹

​

How I Work

I intentionally limit my service area and daily schedule so I can provide reliable, attentive care to each home I serve. â€‹

This allows me to stay present during visits, communicate clearly, and maintain consistency for both pets and pet owners.
