I love pets, flexible and reliable.

Pet care experience

I have been a dog owner for over 30 years. I have been a pet parent to many different breed and sizes . I feel much better knowing that my dogs are getting walked at least twice a day. I enjoy the walks as much as my dogs do. I am a very active person, stay fit therefore walking dogs fits perfectly into my fitness regimen. My schedule is flexible during the day to offer my dog walking service to help others. I also offer Housing sitting & Drop in visit. I like to making my clients pets feel comfortable while their family are away. I update clients with status and photos of their pets. I am very responsible, reliable , reasonable and dependable. Thank you, Stephen

Stephen has hosted our dog twice now. He sends updates and pictures if you'd like. Our dog always returns happy and well-taken of.

Stephen was great with my 1 year old lab. She is very skittish and he was able to get her to warm up to him. I would definitely bring her back.

Our dog even got a little sick and Stephen fed him rice and chicken! Great dog sitter!

Our second time with Steve. The dog was excited to see him again, and settled right in with the family. Many thanks Steve, we look forward to seeing you again!
