Pet care experience

Lifelong pet owner, I love all pets

I’ve personally taken care of kittens and senior cats and have been walking dogs and pet sitting for neighbors and friends since I was 10. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and I also have some experience with shy/reactive dogs. I’m happy to follow your pets routines and put their safety and wellbeing above all else. I’m currently studying Biology at GCSU, but I’m home for the summer. I currently have 2 cats at home and I treat them like part of my family. I always make sure that they eat on schedule and that their fountain water is clean and fresh to maintain hydration. I’ll treat all pets like my own and I’m very excited to meet some new friends!

Safety, trust & environment

I do have a fenced backyard, although I’d prefer to care for pets at their home where they are most comfortable or care for them outside of the home.

We are so grateful to have found Stephen and he was a joy to work with! He was super responsive, gave wonderful daily reports with the cutest pictures of our little baby having fun on her daily walks. He also gave her a lot of extra attention when back at home after walks, which she loved. Highly recommend!

Had a superb experience with Stephen. Very professional and respectful and also patient with my cats. It was a pleasure having him look after them while I was away at a conference. No major issues came up. The cats seem well adjusted when I returned which is great because usually they are a bit miffed when I return from long trip!

Stephen was responsive and took excellent photos of Sarabi while watching her. He also alerted me of a problem with her treats and was willing to help out with the situation should the solution call for it, which was very much appreciated. Sarabi had a good time with him and was all smiles.

Stephen was so great!! My pups were a little shy at first and he was so kind and patient with them and really did a good job building up trust!
